TS-7200 Full-Featured SBC
[Vendor: Technologic Systems]

An Ideal Solution for Embedded Development. The TS-7200 is a compact full-featured single board computer based upon the Cirrus EP9302 ARM9 CPU, which provides a standard set of on-board peripherals. The EP9302 features an advanced ARM920T 200 MHz processor design with MMU that allows support for high-level embedded operating systems such as Linux, Windows CE, and others.

Software

Technologic Systems TS-7200 ARM single board computers are compatible with a wide range of operating systems. The Linux choice is highly recommended and our products are totally integrated with the open-source vision. The Linux OS, TS-Kernel 2.4.26, is shipped by default with our ARM SBCs and includes complete driver support for our hardware within the Kernel, enabling quick time to market of end-users applications. Examples and source code are also available for downloading.

The TS-ARM SBCs include the TS-Linux compact embedded OS installed by default in on-board flash memory (8 MB, JFFS or YAFFS filesystems). The eCos/Redboot boot loader is used to open the OS of choice. In addition, the full featured Debian Linux distribution can be used with a network directory (NFS root) or larger flash drives (256 MB), such as Compact Flash, SD Cards or USB memory sticks. The Linux system includes a complete GNU C/C++ embedded development environment installed. In addition, Apache Web Server, FTP, SSH, Telnet and Samba internet services are available with C/PHP/Perl for embedded CGI development.

The Linux solution for ARM is compatible with the RTAI real-time extension, enabling systems with strict timing requirements to be handled with our SBCs. Furthermore, NetBSD has been ported to TS-ARM and Java solutions are also available.

Hardware

The TS-7200 SBC includes a compact flash interface which allows booting from large flash drives to the Debian distribution, improving the Linux development capabilities. It also can fast boot from the onboard Strata Flash memory using a compact TS-Linux distribution.

Additional TS-7200 features include:
  • 200 MHz ARM9 processor with MMU
  • 2 standard serial ports with 16 Byte FIFOs
  • Watchdog timer unit
  • 32 MB of High Speed SDRAM
  • 8 MB (16 MB opt.) Flash disk used for RedBoot boot-loader, Linux kernel and root file system

  • SPI bus header
  • Rugged quick-release terminal strips used for power
  • Dimensions are 3.8 " x 4.5 " (PC/104 mounting holes)
  • Power requirements are 5V DC @ 400mA
  • Standard Operating Temperature Range: Fanless -40° to +70° full-speed; +85°C with CPU@166Mhz
  • Optional Battery Backed Real Time Clock
  • Optional RS-485 support on COM2 with fully automatic TX enable control
  • Optional 8 ch. 12-bit A/D converter
  • Optional on-board temperature sensor

FUEL Database on MontaVista Linux
