RCHITECTURE

4.1 User Interface

Display
The QTERM-A12 features a TFT color SVGA (800 x 600 pixels) LCD display that measures 
308 mm (12.1") diagonally. The display backlight has a typical rating of 450 nit.

Touch Screen
A clear analog-resistive touch screen covers the entire display area for user input. The touch 
screen is a 5-wire architecture offering improved durability and touch endurance. The face of 
the touch screen has an anti-reflective (AR) coating and a hardness of 3H.

External Peripherals
Two full-speed USB ports are available on the back of the QTERM-A12. These ports can be 
used to add many other devices, such as a keyboard, mouse or additional mass storage. Adding 
USB peripherals that are not self-powered will increase the power consumption of the termi-
nal.

4.2 Processor

The processor in the QTERM-A12 is the Marvell PXA300 processor (ARMV5TE), incorpo-
rating Intel XScale technology running at 624 MHz.

4.3 System and Application Memory

DRAM
The QTERM-A12 includes 128 Mbytes of DDR SDRAM volatile memory with a maximum 
bandwidth of 520 Mbytes per second.

Flash
The QTERM-A12 uses an internal 4 Gbyte NAND flash device to hold the main Windows CE 
image and provide non-volatile storage for user applications and data.

C

AUTION

For Class I, Division 2 installations:
The USB ports are for operational maintenance only. Do not leave USB devices permanently 
connected unless the area is known to be non-hazardous.
