This multi-purpose development board has been designed as a carrier board for the PXA270M and PXA270 DIMM Modules.
It does not only provide a flexible development environment necessary to explore the full functionality of the PXA270M and PXA270 DIMM Modules, but when used with a module and 2.5" HDD, closed in a stylish aluminum case, the set turns into a ready-to-use adapter-powered PXA270(M) EMBEDDED PC containing all the standard PC peripherals.
The board provides an analog VGA connector for the direct connectivity to a generic CRT and TFT screens, supporting maximum resolution of 1024x768 pixels / 65536 colors in a 16 bit mode. The connectivity to the passive and active LCDs with 4-wire resistive touch screens is realized via the carrier board connectors and headers. The keyboard and mouse can be connected through PS2 or USB connectors. The board further includes Audio input and output, reset buttons, mini USB, outlet of a PCMCIA interface, MMC/SD card, and Compact Flash. The PXA270 DIMM base board has on board 5V switching power supply with input voltage ranging from 7V to 37V. Maximum output current of the regulator is 3A thus limiting baseboard, module and all connected peripherals to 15W maximum power consumption. The fanless carrier board also provides configurable switches, buttons, GPIO pins and LEDs for user friendly interaction thus simplifying programming of one's own applications.
To accelerate your own product development, Voipac can upon request supply you with all of the difficult-to-get components used on its boards, such as the
200pin SO DIMM socket (
