System Block Diagram
The PPM-C407 is a single-board computer (SBC). It is a full-featured embedded system
with a variety of onboard I/O options. The following figure is a simplified system block
diagram of the PPM-C407.
Three display interfaces (MiniDisplayPort, VGA, and LVDS) support up to two
independent displays along with stereo audio. Communication interfaces include
Gigabit Ethernet, four USB 2.0 ports, two serial RS-232/422/485 channels and two
serial RS-232 channels. 24 digital I/O lines with event sense can be programmed
individually for input, output, or interrupt driven applications. For additional flexibility,
the I/O lines can be paired with external isolation and relay modules.
The PPM-C407 can provide an upgrade for existing PC/104-Plus Compatible Single
Board Computers. It’s designed for harsh environments and reliability, featuring
soldered RAM for added shock and vibration resistance, and provides an optional
fanless solution for operating temperatures between -40 °C and +85 °C (-40 °F and
+185 °F).
The PPM-C407 processor options provide single, dual, or quad-core processing. Each
processor option is available with 2 GB or 4 GB of soldered DDR3 memory and optional
stack-through PC/104-Plus connectors.
