Low power Atom embedded miniboard

  • Low power Atom embedded miniboard

The latest addition to BVM's stable of embedded SBCs is the 3.5" Miniboard LE-375, based on the Intel Atom Z510P processor and US15WP chipset.

The unit is designed to offer high performance, low power and integrated graphics and video capability, making it suitable for embedded market segments such as in-vehicle infotainment, industrial control and automation, gaming, diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices, kiosks, terminals and POS.

The Z510P runs at 1.1GHz with 2GB of DDR2 memory. The integrated Graphics Accelerator GMA500 can address up to 256MB of graphic memory and supports 2D, 3D and advanced 3D graphics, as well as integrated full hardware acceleration of H.264, MPEG2, MPEG4, VC1 and WMV, eliminating the need for software decode and reducing the load on the main processor. It also provides a dual display for VGA/LVDS/DVI.

I/O consists of 6 x USB2.0 ports, 1 x RS232 and 1 x RS232/422/485 port, with a CompactFlash socket, a SD 1.1 card socket and a PCIE mini card socket. Up to two mass storage devices can be addressed via a standard IDE interface; a programmable 8-bit GPIO interface and a 256-level watchdog timer are also provided. Power is from an external 9 – 24VDC source and the board provides power for attached hard discs or optical drives.
