Introduction
Advantech provides the smallest compact embedded computers on the market ---
the ARK-1300 series. These small, powerful all-in-one fanless systems are designed
for rugged and space critical applications in automation control and wireless gateway
applications. A solid sealed aluminum case provides vibration and water resistance
while also providing a passive cooling solution. The ARK-1380 provides system inte-
grators with a turn-key solution and versatile application development path without
breaking the bank or missing time to market deadlines
The ARK-1380 can be used as a standalone system, wall-mounted, DIN-rail
mounted or VESA mounted. The system accepts a wide range of power supplies (DC
power in) and comes in a footprint of only 189 x 41 x 136.5 mm (7.44" x 1.61" x
5.37"). The rugged cast aluminum case not only provides great protection from EMI,
shock/vibration, cold and heat, but also passive cooling for quiet fanless operation.
The ARK-1380 answers this demand by offering 4 x USB 2.0 ports, 1 x LVDS inter-
face, 1 x LAN port and 2 x COM ports; packed into a small rugged unit and powered
by an Intel Celeron M processor. Wireless connectivity can be added via the PC card
slot for PCMCIA or CardBus cards. It also supports a wide range of input voltages
from 9 VDC to 35 VDC. The ARK-1380 Compact Embedded Computer is equipped
with a solid state onboard CF card of up to 8 GB, so it easily passes 50 and 5 Grms
shock and vibration tests.
