Product Description 

2.1.

 

Features 

The  RSL8  system  is  a  x86  based  industrial  PC  designed  for  use  with  the  IPC  line  of 
communications and I/O boards. Its many different variants allow to build up various industrial 
controls  based  on  the  standard  PC/AT  architecture  for  use  in  industrial  and  railway 
applications. 
The RSL8 offers the following main features: 

 

low power industrial processor board eliminating the need for enforced cooling 

 

high performance 64-bit Intel Atom based processor core with integrated 

floating point unit 

 

up to 1.9 GHz processor clock 

 

DDR3 DRAM memory 

 

up to 4 Gbyte DRAM on board 

 

64-bit graphics controller with partial backwards compatibility to VGA and 

SVGA standards 

 

graphics controller supporting up to 1900 x 1200 dots resolution on DVI-D port 

 

optional LCD interface (3x8 bit LVDS) 

 

SATA interface supporting one CFast card socket and one standard SATA port. 

 

integrated peripheral controller (IPC) with PC/AT compatible DMA controllers 

(2 x 8237), interrupt controllers (2 x 8259) and timer/counter channels (8254)  

 

optional PC/AT compatible keyboard controller (8042) 

 

up to four serial RS232 ports (COM1-4) with 16 byte receive and transmit fifo 

(16550A) 

 

one USB V3.0/ V2.0  port (XHCI-Hostcontroller) with Super-, High-, Full-  and 

Low-Speed support 

 

three USB V2.0 ports (OHCI/EHCI-Hostcontroller) with High-, Full-  and Low-

Speed support 

 

two 10/100/1000Mbit Ethernet LAN interfaces 

 

Year 2000 compliant Real Time Clock (PC/AT compatible) 

 

hardware watchdog configurable for 100 ms to 256 s timeout and Non-maskable 

Interrupt (NMI) or hardware reset activation 

 

temperature supervisor for software controlled power management  

 

Flash for BIOS and BIOS extensions 

 

supervised battery backup for Real Time Clock 

 

PC/104 bus interface for expansion with standard 8 bit  I/O PC/104 

communications and I/O boards 

 

Optionally integrated WLB_PG expansion board for GPS and LTE /UMTS 

support (BxxxE-versions)
