Neptune
Highly Integrated Embedded SBC with User-Selectable ETX CPU and Data Aquisition
EPIC format CPU with integrated autocalibrating analog I/O, digital I/O and DC/DC power supply.
Neptune introduces a new concept in small form-factor embedded-ready subsystems.Neptune's CPU core consists of an ETX module mounted its bottom side, an approach that improves thermal management and increases the space for I/O functions and connections. This innovative design has enabled Neptune to integrate CPU, system I/O, industry-leading data acquisition, both 10/100Mbps and gigabit Ethernet, and a wide-input DC/DC power supply within the compact and modularly expandable EPIC single-board computer (SBC) form-factor.Thanks to Neptune's flexible architecture, you can select from a wide range of ETX-based CPUs to meet each application's specific performance, power, and cost requirements. Available processors include Intel's Atom, Celeron, CoreDuo, and Core2Duo -- in both LV and ULV technologies. What's more, Neptune's on-board PC/104-Plus expansion socket facilitates the addition of custom or off-the-shelf ISA and PCI interfaced add-on modules, helping you satisfy your application's precise requirements.
CPU Options:
Intel Atom N270 at 1.6GHz -20°C to +71°C operating temp.
Intel Core Duo LV at 1.66GHz -40°C to +85°C operating temp.
Intel Celeron M ULV at 1.06GHz ** -40°C to +85°C operating temp.
Intel Core Duo ULV at 1.2GHz ** -40°C to +85°C operating temp.
Intel Core 2 Duo ULV at 1.06GHz ** -40°C to +85°C operating temp.
Development Kits
A quick-start development kit includes everything you need to get started with your application development, including:
