SBC offers cost-effective HMI

The TPC-35 has been in trials with a number of medical device companies who plan to use it as the HMI for their products.

Techsol has released a cost-effective computer with a colour, TFT LCD and a touch panel, targeting human-machine interface (HMI) applications.

The ARM-powered, industrial-grade, single-board computer (SBC) features a QVGA (320x240) 3.5-inch, colour, a TFT LCD Panel in Landscape format, with 256,000 colours, an adjustable LED backlight and a touch panel.

To meet changing power requirements, the ARM-920T processor can run at speeds ranging from 12 to 200 or 266MHz.

This processor features 32Kbyte of cache, 64Mbyte of Mobile SDRAM for reduced power consumption, and 128Mbyte of NAND Flash, plus a separate NOR Flash for reliable boot-loader and SW update options.

"This computer provides more features at a lower cost than anything else on the market" said Brian Empey, CEO of Techsol.

"By putting everything onto a single board, we provide the robustness demanded of our industrial customers, but at a price-point that even our fiscally-prudent, medical-device customers love".

The product has been in trials with a number of medical device companies who plan to use it as the HMI for their products.

The design is flexible enough to be used as a platform for handheld computers.

The TPC-35 is available from stock and every unit is tested running Linux before it ships.

Single units are available as development kits with full SW development tools and support.
