The BSP is fully supported by Quantum's own team of software developers and is available directly from Quantum or Arcom.
Czeslaw Bil, Quantum's General Manager notes: "The Viper is perfect for applications in industrial control and even airborne communication systems - anywhere which requires extremely low power dissipation and a wide operating temperature range of -40 to +85C".
Glen Middleton, Managing Director of Arcom added: "Arcom's first ready-to-run development kit for QNX 4.25 was launched in 1999".
"Since then, Arcom has maintained the widest selection of ready-to-run development kits on the market including support for high performance 'hard' real-time operating systems such as QNX Neutrino".
The 400MHz Viper single board computer is fitted with 64Mbyte DRAM, 32Mbyte of Flash and 256Kbyte SRAM.
A development kit is available with a Viper ICE (industrial compact enclosure), the Viper-UPS (uninterruptible power supply), serial and Ethernet cable set and also an optional Q-VGA colour display and touchscreen. Request a free brochure from Eurotech ...
