Overview
The Sbc-Duo embedded computer is a user-customizable, turnkey embedded instrument that includes a full Windows/Linux PC and supports a wide assortment of ultimate-performance XMC modules. With its modular IO, scalable performance, and easy to use PC architecture, the Sbc-Duo reduces time-to- market while providing the performance you need.
Distributed Data Acquisition – Put the Sbc-Duo at the data source and reduce system errors and complexity. Optional GPS-synchronized timing, triggering and sample control is available for remote IO. Limitless expansion via multiple nodes.
Uniquely customizable – dual XMC sites for IO, user- programmable FPGA for IO interfaces, triggering and timing control, USB ports.
Remote or Local Operation – Continuous data streaming up to 2000MB/s (local SSDs or up to 10m, cabled-PCIe) or 1Gb/s Ethernet. Optional, stand-alone, autonomous operation with GPS-timed sampling.
Rugged – Runs from SSD drive in a compact, rugged 250x170mm footprint that is ready for embedded operation.
8-36V DC-Only Operation – Perfect for portable or automotive data loggers or waveform generators.
