Overview

COMMELL's LE-340 is an industrial embedded single board computer based on NS Geode platform, provides the 300 MHz of computing capacity at the low power, embedded, x86-compliant architecture for the industrial embedded computers. With NS Geode platform and high integration, COMMELL's LE-340 offers the value embedded computing platform for low power, low profile, fan free, mobile industrial applied computing applications based on industrial standard form factor of compact 3.5" drive size miniboard. The low power consumption and high integration make LE-340 be the ideal solution for industrial embedded applications with the features as below.

• Low Power Embedded Computing Platform : based on NS Geode x86-compliant architecture, the LE-340 offers the 300 MHz of speed at ultra low power for embedded / fan free computing platform.
• Low Profile SO-DIMM : The onboard SO-DIMM socket support up to 256 MBytes of system memory capacity for space-saving, low profile embedded application.
• LVDS/TTL Flat Panel Interface : The integrated TTL and optional LVDS interface offers the digital video output for flat panel with built-in VGA controller and 4 MB video memory.
• CompactFlash Interface : The onboard CompactFlash Type-II socket supports CFC (Compact Flash Card) or IBM MicroDrive up to 1 GBytes of flash memory capacity.
• All-In-One Integrated Solution : LE-340 is an all-in-one computing platform with integrated video, audio, dual LAN, PC/104 and RS422/485 interfaces.
• Embedded OS Support : The NS Geode platform supports the popular embedded OS including Microsoft WinCE, embedded Linux, QNX, VxWorks and other popular embedded OS for the industrial embedded applications.
• Single Voltage +5V Operation : The LE-340 works at only +5V for embedded application based on single power input.
• Long Term Supply : Not as 486 and 586 based systems, the NS Geode is the SOC (System On Chip) solution. The feature makes LE-340 free from the storage of cache SRAM, video memory and other material. In the other word, the LE-340 can be supply as long as the NE Geode chipset.
