Improved Performance and Extension Capacities With The New UNO-2160

The new UNO-2160 offers some powerful improvements over its predecessors in
the UNO-2000 series. New features include faster CPU, more memory support, and support for two PC/104 slots, which can be used for a wide selection of PC/104 extension cards. With memory backup and fanless design, the UNO-2160 provides enhanced system reliability.

The new UNO-2160 is an embedded, application ready platform that shortens your development time. Its Celeron 400 MHz processor provides good performance, and the two PC/104 slots offer convenient expansion possibilities. The two PC/104 slots could for example be used for data acquisition or communication modules. Four serial ports and several other networking interfaces support diverse communication requirements. Moreover, UNO-2160 can be used as a controller, communication gateway or thin client.

New feature: SRAM memory backup
The 512 KB of battery backed SRAM ensures that you have a safe place to store critical data. With an LED alarm, it is also convenient to monitor that the battery is charged. You can now write software applications without being concerned that system crashes will erase critical data from the memory.

A Powerful Combination for Maximum System Reliability
The combination of battery backup for the SRAM and a watchdog timer means maximum system reliability. With process history stored in your SRAM, if your system should happen to crash, the watchdog timer will reboot the system, and the process software can use the process history stored in SRAM to continue the process at the correct step. This automatic restart and memory storage of your running system processes ensure minimum interruption.

Application ready platform
The UNO-2160 provides two embedded Operating Systems, Windows CE.NET 4.2 and Windows XP Embedded OS, which offer a pre-configured image with optimized onboard device drivers. Windows XP Embedded delivers the power of the Windows operating system in componentized form. You can seamlessly integrate your applications into Windows XP Embedded.

Advantech is pleased to be able to meet the customer demand for high performance controllers that are cost efficient and also offers powerful backup features. The new features brought by UNO-2160 break new ground in system reliability, and they are certain to develop even further in the future.
