NEXCOM has launched two 3.5" industrial embedded boards which are based on the all new Intel Atom processor D2700 with Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3650. EBC 353 and EBC 354 embedded boards run at 2.13GHz with miserly power consumption of just 10W. Not only do the 3.5" boards based on a powerful engine which has low power consumption, they are also packed with exceptional graphics capabilities including HD encoder, DirectX 10.1, and dual independent display. Also equipped with expansion capabilities and assorted I/O choices, EBC 353/354 are the perfect platforms for fanless industrial automation and multimedia applications.
With high performance and energy efficient characteristics, EBC 353 is particularly suitable for fanless embedded computing deployments which impose stringent requirements on heat dissipation. Also on-board are one Mini-PCIe and one PCI-104 slot enabling EBC 353 to connect with 4G/3.5G/3G/Wi-Fi network and embedded controller. In addition, EBC 353 has three RS232, one RS232/422/485, and two Intel 82574L GbE ports to issue command, acquire data, and guarantee the most reliable and efficient data package transmission. Moreover, EBC 353 supports dual independent displays, providing a choice of two of the following interfaces: VGA, DIV-D, and 18/24-bit LVDS. All in all, the 3.5" board has a head start on applications including machine automation, factory automation, and industrial control.
Targeted at multimedia applications, EBC 354 brings enhanced graphics performance into play. The embedded board can render a wider range of multimedia formats including MPEG2, H.264, and VC-1/WMV9, playback Full HD 1080p contents, and supports dual display. In addition to VGA, DIV-D and LVDS, EBC 354 also makes HDMI available, allowing users to choose the best I/O combination to suit various applications requirements. There is also an optional module of dual 24/48-bit LVDS for users in need of larger display. Equipped with two Mini-PCIe, instead of one, EBC 354 is packed for 3G/Wi-Fi connectivity. Though EBC 353 and EBC 354 share similar features, EBC 354 is certainly targeted at digital signage, retail, banking and medical markets.
