Industrial mini PC delivers LAN, WLAN and 3G
The standard version includes the Linux 2.6.38 operating system and a software utilities bundle that comprises a Web server, PHP server, Python, Java, MySQL and SQLite.
The industrial box PC Matrix-513 is ideally suitable for the remote management of devices and modules in building technology and factory automation. Low energy consumption and diverse communication options (LAN, WLAN, Bluetooth and G3) provide a high degree of flexibility. With its two mini PCIe slots, the PC can be equipped with the desired communication interfaces — in addition to the two independent permanently installed 10/100 Mbit LAN connections. On top of the four RS-232/422/485 serial interfaces, the Matrix-513 has two insulated inputs and a relay output which, for example, can be used for monitoring tasks and alarm signals.
The operating system Linux (kernel 2.6.38) is pre-installed with the file system. A large number of tools and utilities (including the tool chain GCC C/C++) is also pre-installed or easy to access on the software CD or as a free download from the website.
The core of the hardware is the Atmel AT91SAM9G45 ARM9400 MHz processor with MMU. Also, 128MB DDR-2 memory is available as RAM, augmented with 256MB NAND flash memory. The 2MB data flash memory serves as a backup file system for fast, easy system updates and problem-free system recovery. A mini SD slot supports SD cards up to 32GB.
The robust casing with its dimensions of 175 × 43 × 103 mm is manufactured exclusively using metal and has two side-positioned assembly eyelets. Its supply voltage can be within the range of 9 to 48 VDC, while the power consumption of the Matrix-513 of 50 mA (12 V) is considered very low. The admissible ambient temperature for operation is defined with 0 to 70 °C.
