Core module speeds embedded systems development
Rabbit Semiconductor's fastest and most powerful microprocessor core module to date is the RCM3200 RabbitCore.
Analogue core has 10/100Base-T reference design
Rabbit Semiconductor's newest RCM3400 core module is the first RabbitCore with analogue, and provides a 10/100Base-T reference design.
The Camera Interface Application Kit combines the industry-proven RCM3365 RabbitCore module, with a VGA camera module and an infrared motion sensor.
The RabbitCore module features GPIO and Ethernet connectivity and provides the intelligence to receive input from a motion sensor and trigger a "photo capture," and then activates a user-configured action such as an email notification, or an FTP upload of the photo - all controlled from an easy-to-use web interface.
Design engineers will enjoy the time and cost-savings of the Camera Interface Application Kit.
The kit contains two servomotors that provide pan-and-tilt motion for the camera, an infrared motion detector for event triggering, and a RCM3365 for embedded control.
The kit's robust features offer numerous implementation possibilities using the Dynamic C development software and included FAT File System software module.
The easy-to-use, password-protected web interface is served by the RabbitCore module, and can be accessed from anywhere in the world using a standard web browser.
The included RCM3365 provides up to 128 MB of removable memory storage and 10/100Base-T Ethernet connectivity, which allows the user to store and manage large photos, receive email event notifications, or transfer logged files to an FTP server.
Rabbit Semiconductor developed the Application Kit program to showcase the capabilities of a Rabbit microprocessor-based device in various connectivity technologies and peripherals.
Rabbit currently has application kits for Bluetooth, cellular GSM/GPRS, serial-to-Ethernet, and a colour touch screen display.
These kits help to jumpstart design engineers in developing Rabbit-based system solutions.
