Improved Performance and Extension Capacities
With The New UNO-2160
 The
new UNO-2160 offers some powerful improvements over its predecessors
in
the UNO-2000 series. New features include faster CPU, more
memory support, and support for two PC/104 slots, which can
be used for a wide selection of PC/104 extension cards. With
memory backup and fanless design, the UNO-2160 provides enhanced
system reliability.
The new UNO-2160
is an embedded, application ready platform that shortens your
development time. Its Celeron 400 MHz processor provides good
performance, and the two PC/104 slots offer convenient expansion
possibilities. The two PC/104 slots could for example be used
for data acquisition or communication modules. Four serial ports
and several other networking interfaces support diverse communication
requirements. Moreover, UNO-2160 can be used as a controller,
communication gateway or thin client.
New
feature: SRAM memory backup
The 512 KB of battery backed SRAM ensures that you have a
safe place to store critical data. With an LED alarm, it is
also convenient to monitor that the battery is charged. You
can now write software applications without being concerned
that system crashes will erase critical data from the memory.
A
Powerful Combination for Maximum System Reliability
The combination of battery backup for the SRAM and a watchdog
timer means maximum system reliability. With process history
stored in your SRAM, if your system should happen to crash,
the watchdog timer will reboot the system, and the process
software can use the process history stored in SRAM to continue
the process at the correct step. This automatic restart and
memory storage of your running system processes ensure minimum
interruption.
Application
ready platform
The UNO-2160 provides two embedded Operating Systems, Windows®CE.NET
4.2 and Windows XP Embedded OS, which offer a pre-configured
image with optimized onboard device drivers. Windows XP Embedded
delivers the power of the Windows operating system in componentized
form. You can seamlessly integrate your applications into
Windows XP Embedded.
Advantech
is pleased to be able to meet the customer demand for high
performance controllers that are cost efficient and also offers
powerful backup features. The new features brought by UNO-2160
break new ground in system reliability, and they are certain
to develop even further in the future.
