Advantech has introduced UBC-220, a new ARM-based compact desktop computer powered by Freescale's ARM Cortex-A9 i.MX6 Dual Lite high-performance processor. UBC-220 has compact size, high performance and excellent connectivity, and is considered as an ideal indoor computing gateway for smart buildings, parking lots and public places.
The UBC-220 has a 1GHz processor, 1GB of onboard memory and 4GB of eMMC flash storage. UBC-220 has dual display support for Full HD 1080P HDMI and single channel LVDS, making it an ideal solution for HMI and instant signage. In addition, UBC-220 has USB 2.0 and OTG expansion compatibility, as well as optional dual mini-PCIe slots for Gigabyte Ethernet and dual Wi-Fi and 3G modules. It has the ability to connect and bridge multiple devices on the same network. Get raw data efficiently. For next-generation cloud-based services.
In addition, the palm-sized UBC-220 supports multiple mounting methods, including VESA, DIN rail, and flexible wall mounting. Through a specially designed VESA bracket, UBC-220 can be integrated with Advantech's open displays to provide a fanless stand-alone system with rich I / O functions to support equipment management of complex IoT infrastructure.
UBC-220 has embedded Linux as the default operating system. For experienced Yocto Linux developers, Advantech also provides Yocto Linux board support package as an optional design service. Because this license-free package is designed to develop applications in a Linux-based environment, it supports embedded Linux and Yocto Linux. Advantech also provides a complete software toolchain, Linux source code packages and software support services for software developers who intend to develop a new generation of IoT gateways based on UBC-220.
Not only do compact computers provide a stable hardware platform, but software packages and services make it easier and faster for customers to develop their own applications. In addition to Linux support, Advantech also provides Android OS images and BSP source code for application development. Android applications can be integrated with UBC-220 to provide more competitive advantages for various solutions.
For users with existing system IDs, Advantech offers a cost-effective RSB-3410 single board computer (SBC) with the same I / O capabilities. Following the mini-ITX size standard, the RSB-3410 can be adapted to any type of chassis designed for 2.5 SBC. In addition, the company said that users can easily integrate other system peripherals using RSB-3410.
