PicoMOD1
Small-sized and low-cost, by means of a preinstalled operating system (Windows
CE or embedded Linux), the PicoMOD1 solution and its starter kit makes it
possible to begin developing your application very quickly indeed.
Specific skills for writing device drivers and kernel compilations are not
required - just unpack the starter kit, connect the cables and power supply,
then switch on.
Typical application areas are:-
- Measuring Instruments
- Control Systems
- Embedded Internet
- Serial
- Ethernet
- Thin Client
- Web-Terminals
- Info-Terminals
Please see below for further details.
PicoMOD1 is the first product in a new family of single board computers. This
module (80x50 mm) is
based on an ARM9 CPU from Samsung and runs at a clock speed of 400 MHz. PicoMOD1
offers 32
MB of Flash memory, 32 MB of RAM memory, interfaces for 3
serial lines, 2 USB (host/device), I2C, I/O, sd-card and ethernet. Additionally
it offers the same flexible display interface as all products from F&S. All
STN-,
CSTN- and TFT- displays with resolutions up to 640x480 can
be
connected.
PicoMOD1 needs 3,3 V. All signals are located on a single connector with 80
pins. For fast and easy development we provide a complex base-board
which is
part of the starter-kit (SKIT). Use this kit to check the
performance of the CPU and/or check the following interfaces: battery backed up
RTC, four/five wire touch controller, LC driving voltage (5-30V), USB-Hub,
RS232/485,
ethernet, SD card, USB device, I2C, 5 digital I/O and LCD
display.
Windows CE 5.0
Continue using your Windows know-how! Build your software with VisualStudio
.NET in the languages C++, C#, or VB.NET. Windows CE 5.0, theCompact Framework
Use
interfaces like I²C in the same way as RS232, without having to deal with the
underlying hardware. Configure external interrupts (level/edge) or the display
with the
F&S configuration tool. With PicoMOD1, Windows CE is
just simple. Start now!
Embedded Linux
The BSP contains the bootloader u-Boot with a comfortable LCD-selection, the
linux kernel 2.6.11 with LCD drivers,
touchpanel, NOR and NAND flash, ethernet, RTC and audio AC97. Furthermore
an initrd with busybox for loading drivers and an extended target fs in
the NAND flash with shell, libc, numerous utilities, graffical surface
nano-X as well as some example programs are part of the delivered package. A
modern and comfortable preinstalled cross-toolchain with cross-debugger is
also contained.
