Designed to run from a single 5V power supply, the CPU-C3VE from DSL meets PC/104-Plus standards for full IBM-AT and PCI compatibility.
In addition to the dual band 900/1800MHz GSM/GPRS modem which offers the PV-1800 also includes a power supply, which provides 4A at 5V for external use, thus negating an extra power supply, and an input supply requirement of 8-35V makes it convenient for automotive and low-voltage applications.
The module also has eight isolated analogue (0-10V) inputs, enabling data acquisition directly onboard, eight digital inputs and seven high current digital outputs (all optoisolated) to enable the control of auxiliary equipment and any faults can be reported via the SMS feature on the GSM modem.
Designed to withstand extended temperatures of -20 to +70C, the PV1800 can easily handle the shock and vibration of mobile equipment, making it deal for applications in embedded M2M control and supervision applications, vehicular and automotive systems.
