INTRODUCTION
1.7 PC/104 Peripherals
Technologic Systems offers many add-on peripherals to complete the requirements of
your application. These products directly interface with the
TS-7250
using the PC/104
bus, adding a wide variety of functionalities at very reasonable prices. Some of these
functionalities includes:
✔
NVRAM
- adds 32K, 128K, 1MB or 2MB bytes of battery-backed SRAM. Battery
backed SRAM provides non-volatile memory with very fast write times and unlimited
write cycles, unlike Flash memory. This can be very important if the data is constantly
being updated several times per minute, since Flash devices can wear-out after a few
million write cycles. It also eliminates the latency that Flash memory has during write
cycles. This resource is a byte-wide memory device using a lithium battery that will last
a minimum of 10 years with or without power applied.
✔
Analog
VIDEO
interface – When a video monitor is needed.
✔
CAN
Bus – Useful for automotive applications.
✔
Modems
– Phone Line or GSM Cellular modems.
✔
Additional
Ethernet
ports.
✔

interface with either 24 or 64 new lines..
✔
Additional 12 bit
ADC
and
DAC
: useful for industrial automation applications.
✔
