| The LP3500 Fox
low-power single-board computer from Z-World, Davis, CA, operates
where power is limited, such as in portable, handheld, battery-powered,
and remote data acquisition and monitoring systems.
It features built-in analog and digital I/O, and consumes less
than 20 mA when fully operational and less than 100 microamps in power-save
mode. The board incorporates the Rabbit 3000 microprocessor, up
to 512K each of Flash and SRAM, 26 digital I/O, A/D converter inputs,
six serial ports, one relay, and two dedicated function ports.
The board runs at up to 7.4 MHz at a variety of power levels under
software control, and can be awakened from the power-save mode by
an internal timer, RS-232 signal, or via polling of an external
input. An optional keypad/display module is available as a user
interface. A library of drivers and demo programs is also provided.
The
board is suitable for remote telemetry, GPS/asset tracking, handheld
wireless devices, remote data acquisition, electrical transmission
line monitoring, and other applications that require low power control.
