Compact Flash Computer
ADPI introduces the first in a family of miniature embedded linux processors for industrial standard I/O cards. The Compact Flash Computer from C-Data-Solutions provides a flexible solution to the design problems presented by the numerous differing applications of embedded computers.
• 43 x 37 x 5 mm
• Compact Flash Type II Card
• 16 Bit CF expansion bus Interfaces to CF cards
• 32 bit Coldfire cpu
• 32 MB SRAM
• 8 MB FLASH
• µcLinux
• RS-232
• Motorola BDM port
The Compact Flash Computer is designed to give application engineers a common base on which to build systems to satisfy multiple system requirements.
Compact Flash Computer does this by providing:
• A miniature computing platform in a standard form factor
• A structure enabling commercially available Compact Flash cards
like the CF DAQ Card or the COMM Cards for expansion and flexibility
The Compact Flash Computer utilizes Motorola’s Coldfire MFC5272
processor. The on-board flash memory file system provides storage for
the operating system (ucLinux) and user applications. Expansion is via
a 16 bit bus compatible with Compact Flash devices. Up to eight devices
can be integrate into a system using the Bus Extension Unit (CF type II
device).
The Compact Flash Computer eases and reduces software development costs by providing an RS232 interface and access to Motorola’s Background Debug Mode (BDM) signals. Software development tools and the operating system are free.
Build systems using 3rd party Compact Flash Cards (CF+) RS232/485, DAQ
CF, Ethernet, Bluetooth, 802.11b, USB, GSM, GPRS, GPS and many more.
