ADLINK Technology Inc of Taiwan has launched the Express-ATC and Ampro by ADLINK Express-ATR, two low-power, long-lifecycle computer-on-modules (COM) based on the ultra low power Intel Atom processor N270 and Mobile Intel 945GSE Express Chipset and supporting up to 2 Gbytes of DDR2 533MHz memory on a single SODIMM socket.
The Express-ATC and Express-ATR are "Compact" COM Express modules measuring only 95 x 95mm, and are fully compatible with the Type 2 pin-out of the PICMG COM Express specification.
While the Express-ATC and Express-ATR are based on the same CPU and chipset, these modules are designed for two distinct industry markets. The Express-ATC targets entry-level embedded and mobile applications requiring full graphics features in a compact package. The Express-ATR is specially designed from the top down using the Ampro by ADLINK Extreme Rugged design methodology for applications that require MIL-STD-202F shock and vibration compliance and extended -40 to +80 degree operating temperature range, such as rugged portable military devices.
