PC/104-Express Card with Intel Atom Processor

With the Microspace MSM200X/XL/XP based on the Intel Atom processor, the Swiss-based company Digital-Logic is extending its range of PC/104-Express single board computers. The board is used for applications in battery powered mobile computers, information terminals with video displays, game systems with music output, measuring instruments or telecommunication devices.

Besides the CPU, the MSM200 provides all standard PC interfaces required for such applications, including Ethernet LAN, an audio controller (HDA-AC97), four RS232 interfaces, two SATA and one PATA interfaces. In addition, the PCI/104-Express bus (PCI + PCIe), PCIe Minicard and six USB interfaces are available as functional extensions. The PCIe Minicard permits to extend the board with GSM or WLAN functions. Optionally the MSM200 can be equipped with a GPS receiver (COM4). All three options (X, XL and XP) are equipped with the SMA200 Atom Z510/Z530 processor (1.1/1.6GHz) and offer up to 1GB RAM. The XL version is a low-cost variant without battery or sound codec, while the XP version features a 4 GB SDD on board (optional for the two other variants). The versions MSM200X and MSM200XP are also available for the extended temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. The boards have dimensions of 90mm x 96mm (W x L) and a weight of 105 or 115 grams respectively. For shipments of 100 units or more, DIGITAL-LOGIC offers the MSM200 at starting prices of 364.00 euros per unit plus VAT.
