Introduction
The PROTEUS is a single board computer primarily based on the Type-1 COM Express
extended format CPU module. It also has a secondary build option which allows it to
operate in a standalone (base-board free) operating mode.
The module provides the capability to support a combination of wireless standards
including:
•
802.11a/b/g/n.
•
Bluetooth.
•
ZigBee.
•
WiMAX.
•
Cellular options including (EV-DO, HSUPA, HSDPA, UMTS, EDGE, GPRS, GSM).
•
Support for a SiRFStar III based GPS module.
It also provides limited IO functionality including USB, LVDS, SATA and a resistive touch
screen interface.
For applications requiring functionality beyond that provided by the standalone module a
COM Express connector supporting PCI Express, LPC, USB, HD Audio, Gigabit Ethernet
and SMBus interfaces is provided to allow expansion onto a carrier board.
The board is able to run all x86 operating systems including Windows XP/
XP Embedded, Vista, CE and Linux.
