Atom-Based Series of Fanless, Cable-Free Rugged I/O Platforms

A series of rugged and fanless I/O platforms based on the Intel Atom N270 are targeted for providing rugged I/O solutions to the market. The Matrix MXE-1000 and MXC-2000 from Adlink Technology are the result of combining Adlink’s experience in x86 platform design, versatile I/O function development and thermal design to push fanless systems to a higher standard, including a -20° to 70°C temperature range, 5g vibration and cable-free durable structure.

The MXE-1000 and MXC-2000 series include a specifically designed single board computer to fit the respective fanless chassis in which all heat-producing components come in direct contact with the aluminum shell. This allows for the widest operating temperature range among all off-the-shelf fanless computers. To increases reliability and durability, all connectors and components are mounted directly onto the PCB so there is no internal wiring. In addition to general I/O connectors such as Gigabit Ethernet (GbE), COM and USB ports, the MXE-1000 series also provides dedicated GbE and 1394b interfaces to support cameras for outdoor or in-vehicle video/imaging applications. The Matrix series is currently available at list prices starting at $550 and $750 for the MXE-1000 and MXC-2000, respectively.
