Upgrade path for end of life products
Embedded products specialist Adlink Technology has launched the LittleBoard 735 EBX SBC based on the ultra low power Intel Atom N270 processor at 1.6GHz
By combining the low power Navy Pier platform, Atom N270 with 945GSE chipset, Adlink has attempted to create an upgrade path for previous end of life products.
According to Adlink, the LittleBoard 735 has a lifecycle of 7 to 10 years and supports legacy features including a PCI- to-ISA bridge for full PC/104-Plus expansion, four serial ports, IDE, CompactFlash socket and embedded BIOS extensions. It uses a thick pcb and is designed for to tolerate shock, vibration, humidity, and temperature extremes.
Adlink's product director, embedded computer division, Colin McCracken, said: "In the current economic climate, the LittleBoard 735 is very budget friendly, allowing EBX users to migrate easily their existing system designs, cabling, and PC/104-style I/O cards. This product is the latest in a long line of field proven extreme rugged products dating back to the first LittleBoard SBC in 1984. With on board ISA bridge and DDMA BIOS extensions, the LittleBoard 735 reinforces Adlink's lifecycle commitment to EBX customers by directly supporting PC/104 ISA cards without added bridge cards through the year 2015 and beyond."
