March 29, 2009 - Innovative Integration announces its eInstrument-PC Atom. the eInstrument-PC (Atom) is a low-power, embedded Windows/Linux PC. This user-customizable, turnkey embedded instrument supports a wide assortment of low-power and ultimate-performance XMC modules. Data Logging - Log Data at up to 800 MB/s. Drive bay supports up to four notebook HDD for up to 2TB storage.
Solid state drive options for rugged, low power data logging. Distributed Data Acquisition - Put the eInstrument-PC at the data source and reduce system errors and complexity. Optional GPS-synchronized timing, triggering and sample control is available for remote IO. Limitless expansion via multiple nodes. Rugged - Runs diskless from FLASH drive in a compact, rugged 250x170x77mm footprint that is ready for embedded operation.
Low Power 12V DC-Only Operation - Perfect for portable data acquisition or instrumentation. Low power Intel Atom processor for fanless operation. The rugged eInstrument-PC enclosure houses the SBC-ComEx embedded PC and is compatible with the eInstrument DAQ Node (cabled PCI-Express XMC module carrier). For applications requiring extensive real-time computation, the system CPU may be changed to a 2.53 GHz Core2 Penryn.
Uniquely Customizable - Dual XMC sites for IO, user-programmable FPGA for IO interfaces, triggering and timing control, USB ports. Up to two X5-series modules may be installed into the ePC. X5 modules provide a state-of-the-art combination of the newest generation, high-density, user-reprogrammable Virtex 5 FPGA logic meticulously integrated with ultra-high speed analog or digital I/O to address the most demanding radar, wireless RF and communications applications. For less demanding applications, our X3-series modules may be used.
X3 modules provide an extremely cost-effective combination of analog or digital I/O plus a Xilinx Spartan 3 or 3a DSP user-reprogrammable FPGA which provides a plug-and-play, yet customizable solution for common data acquisition, waveform generation and servo/control applications. Software - Windows and Linux compatible; Runs standard desktop applications; MSVC++ Developers Kit supporting IO integration and customization; device drivers; example software and support applets supplied for all peripherals. Applications include; Embedded instrumentation; Remote, autonomous IO; Mobile instrumentation; Distributed data acquisition.
