SBC brings new life to embedded x86
applications
The AR-B8020 is a low-cost PC/104+ SBC designed to replace end-of-life x86-based boards in industrial applications.
Many industrial automation systems need a low-cost stable x86-based PC/104+ single board computer However, many of the original low-end x86 CPU processors are currently being phased out; CPUs such as the ALi 6117C, STPC Atlas and SiS Vortex86 are becoming increasingly hard to source
Although these distinguished products have had long lifecycles, these CPUs are now end of life (EOL).
So now Acrosser has developed the AR-B8020 to meet the demands of system designers still in need of these low-power devices.
The RDC is a reliable, long-life CPU that not only meets customers' performance requirements, but also their low cost targets.
For these reasons, Acrosser choose the RDC 8610 to be the core of the AR-B8020.
AR-B8020 is a single-chip solution, providing quality performance in a low cost format.
Also the small PC/104+ form factor facilitates integration into compact environments.
