Arcom Control Systems has announced the SBC-GX1 single board computer, designed specifically for high volume embedded applications where reliability, low power and long term availability are a must.

The SBC-GX1 is the ideal solution for industries such as communications, vending, gaming, transportation, and others requiring a high performance single board computer at an extremely competitive cost.

The SBC-GX1 EBX compliant single board computer is based on the popular 300MHz National Semiconductor GeodeTM GX1 Multimedia processor and is surrounded by a host of functionality including 10/100 baseTx Ethernet, (4) high speed serial ports, dual USB ports, SVGA video (LCD and CRT), digital I/O, parallel port and hard/floppy drive controller.

System memory is added via a 144-pin SODIMM socket.

16Mbytes of on-board Flash memory offers a very cost effective Flash based system solution for all the supported operating systems.

Bus expansion is achieved via PC/104 bus, a 5v PCI slot and a Type II Compact Flash connector.

As with all Arcom processors, the SBC-GX1 will be available with the most popular embedded operating systems pre-loaded and ready to run.

Arcom's award winning line of Software Development Kits include Windows CE 3.0, Windows NT Embedded 4.0, Embedded Linux, VxWorks, QNX, and ROM-DOS.

Unlike other embedded board manufacturers who require the customer to deal with a third party for OS integration support, Arcom Control Systems staff of software engineers provide all hardware builds and support at no extra cost.

"By combining the reliability of proven embedded designs (which reduces customer down-time), and providing customers an easy to use, integrated hardware/software platform (which speeds time-to-market), Arcom is able to offer our customer base a unique combination of a rugged, reliable solution at an extremely competitive price level" states Glen Middleton, Engineering Director.

"This makes the SBC-GX1 one of the best value products available today in the embedded controls market.".
