64 channel I/O module with 16 digital inputs (opto-isolated) and 48 digital outputs.
Equipped with Intel's Tillamook Pentium 266MHz CPU onboard, the SBC-558 packs the necessary punch for a wide range of mid- to high-end embedded applications.
The Tillamook is low on power consumption and gives off less heat than other processors in its league.
Heat dissipation is provided through a heatsink and no fan is required.
The SBC-558's all-Intel solution is your assurance for quality and dependability.
This includes the 430TX chipset, the 82559ER Ethernet controller, and a 144-pin SODIMM socket allowing for up to 128MB of memory to be installed.
The onboard C and T 69000 chipset is a high performance CRT/LCD Windows accelerator with 2MB of display memory supporting a wide range of flat panel displays, including 36-bit TFT LCD displays.
Simultaneous viewing of LCD and CRTs is also available.
Its SSD socket supports M-System DiskOnChip for system boot-up and memory storage of up to 288MB.
The Fast Ethernet Controller (Intel 82559) provides 100Mbps-network capability and is fully compatible with traditional 10Base-T facilities.
The half-size SBC-558 employs PC/104 Plus modular system architecture providing PCI bus function as well as a compact and rugged design for building process control and embedded systems.
The board is extremely easy to assemble to provide an overall low-maintenance solution.
The SBC-558 is also equipped with two high speed serial ports (one RS-232, one RS-232/422/485), one multi-mode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port, a floppy drive controller, an Ultra DMA/33 enhanced IDE controller, and a keyboard and PS/2 mouse interface.
