Quatech USB2.0 to RS-232 & RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 adapters added. Boasting speeds of up to 921 kbps, the new Quatech USB Serial Adapters enumerate themselves as standard serial ports without changes to application software or hardware.

August 2006

Preliminary information on the Trimble Mini-T added. The Mini-T GPS Disciplined Clock is Trimble's latest offering for GPS synchronization devices targeting the wireless infrastructure. The Mini-T is RoHS compliant and is a suitable alternative to the non RoHS Thunderbolt (which is no longer available).

Kontron chipDISK now available in 1GB size.

July 2006

Kontron ETXminibaseboard added. The ETX miniBaseboard is designed to allow embedded application developers to get up and run quickly with the ETX module platform, giving them a head start on the total system design. Simply select an ETX module, then Plug & Go. Product is of course ROHS compliant.

June 2006

Diamond Systems Ruby-MM-1612 specification updated - now available in lower cost versions with either 4 or 8 analog outputs and is ROHS compliant (ideal for replacing the obsolete non ROHS compliant Ruby-MM).

May 2006

Diamond Point International has announced that it has been appointed as the distribution sales partner for Aitech Defence Systems in the UK and Ireland. Diamond Point will offer and support the complete Aitech product line.

Fujitsu Siemens D2151-S (microATX sized) & D2156-S (ATX sized) industrial motherboards added. These new industrial Pentium 4 (socket 775) motherboards feature the popular Intel 945G chipset. Unlike desktop motherboards, these boards are designed with an extended lifetime in mind - upto 48 months. Both boards are of course ROHS compliant.

Trimble Acutime Gold added. Trimble's Acutime™ Gold GPS smart antenna marks the integration of the latest generation software GPS technology into a rugged self-contained unit that enables easy integration into any system. The Acutime Gold is a pole-mounted GPS receiver and antenna in a single environmentally sealed enclosure. The Acutime Gold GPS smart antenna design continues Trimble's line of GPS smart antennas, which have been in production since 1991. This antenna is the perfect solution for precise timing and network synchronization needs, including broadband wireless applications. It provides an extremely cost-effective and independent (within the firewall) timing source for any application, such as fault detection systems and synchronization of wireless networks. The Acutime Gold is ROHS compliant.

April 2006

Trimble Copernicus added. The Copernicus GPS module is a complete drop-in, ready-to-go ROHS compliant GPS receiver that provides 12 channel GPS performance for surface mount mounting. It features the Trimble revolutionary TrimCore™ software technology for extremely fast startup times and high performance in foliage canopy and urban canyon environments.

Diamond Systems Corporation
Diamond Systems GPIO-MM added. This is a new ROHS compliant PC/104 I/O card featuring 10 16-bit counter/timers, 48 programmable digital I/O and 16 fixed-direction digital I/O. All is this is implemented as logic cores in a Xilinx FPGA (field programmable gate array) with 100,000 system gates and 40K RAM bits. The FPGA code is stored in a flash memory on the board, enabling GPIO-MM to be reprogrammed in the field with different designs, including custom designs. The factory configuration for GPIO-MM provides counter/timer and digital I/O features.

Diamond Systems Poseidon also added. This is a new ROHS compliant EPIC sized miniboard computer with either a 1GHz or 2GHz processor with onboard data acquisition. The 1GHz version is capable of extended temperature operation (-40 to +85 °C).

Kontron Embedded Modules
