Description
Overview
The Cougar is a feature-rich, mid-performance single board computer
that offers very low power consumption without sacrificing performance. The
highly efficient AMD LX 800 processor provides fanless extended temperature
operation, while soldered-on memory ensures high reliability. Equipped with
dual 10/100 Ethernet, USB 2.0 ports, and RS-232/422/485 COM ports, the
Cougar is ideal for military, avionics, homeland security, medical, and
other embedded computing applications.
Like all VersaLogic products, this small and efficient SBC is designed to
support OEM applications where high reliability and long-term availability
are required. From application design-in to 5+ years production life, its
quality and longevity provide a cost-effective, long-term solution.
Customization is available on as few as 100 pieces. The Cougar is
manufactured and tested to the highest quality standards, is compliant with
RoHS regulations, and is backed by a two year limited warranty.
Details
The Cougar features the AMD LX 800 processor, which offers Celeron 800
MHz-equivalent performance while drawing less than 5 watts of power. This
highly-integrated processor, along with its companion chip, provide the majority
of the Cougar’s on-board I/O, including USB 2.0 support, high performance video,
and RS-232/422/485 COM ports. The high resolution video output can be configured
for either standard desktop-type displays or LVDS flat panels.
The Cougar features a General Software Embedded BIOS with OEM
enhancements. This field-reprogrammable BIOS supports custom defaults and
the addition of firmware and firmbase applications for security processes,
remote booting, and other pre-OS software functions. The Cougar is
compatible with a variety of popular operating systems, including Windows,
QNX, VxWorks, and Linux. |
