Minnotek Introduces a New Expandable & Modularized Rugged System – DS-A6
 
TAIPEI, TAIWAN, (December 28th, 2012) – a Global Embedded Solution provider. Minnotek is unveiling a new Expandable & Modularized Rugged System – DS-A6.
 
Focusing on routers, factory automation, control systems and industrial transportation applications, DS-A6 is easy to extend by connecting IET (Intelligent Expansion Technology) expansion module and support Multi-COM Isolation, Multi-LAN Bypass and Multi-LAN POE Module.
 
DS-A6 is powered by Intel ® Atom™ D2550 Dual-Core processor and Intel® NM10 Express Chipset, which consumes low power and is energy-efficient. TPD is lower than 10 watts for processor and 12.1 watts while computer is running on full power. It supports one 204-pin DDR3 SODIMM up to 4GB DDR3 800/ 1066 SDRAM. The rich I/O deployment includes 1 VGA, 1LAN, 1 SIM card slot, 1 Swappable 2.5” Drive Bay, 1 12-bit GPIO, 1 SMBUS, 2COM, 2 PS/2 for KB & MS, 3USB and 2 knockouts antenna mountings.
 
 
 
Here come some unique characteristics of Minnotek’s DS-A6:
 
Modularized Design
DS-A6 is an expandable & modularized rugged system, users can choose CPU and chipset according to application needs or budget control (ODM projects by conditional). With IET expansion modules via daughter boards through sockets, DS-A6 is flexible for future I/O expansion and upgrades.
 
Flexible IET (Intelligent Expansion Technology) Expansion Modules
IET interface is a concept positioned to connecting Single Board Computers and Computers On Modules. IET expansion modules help deliver efficient scheduling, allow less development resources and provide system integrators a cost-effective solution. By connecting IET expansion modules via daughter boards through sockets, DS-A6 can easily be extended with Multi-COM (AUX-M01), Multi-LAN Bypass (AUX-M02), Multi-LAN POE (AUX-M04) and Multi-COM Isolation (AUX-M07) modules.
 
Quick OEM design Saving Time to Market
DS-A6 expansion modules come with over 80-90% standard parts, it features easy assembly and easy maintenance. It helps reduce inventory, control budget and improves the turnover rate of raw materials. When customization is needed, DS-A6’s IET expansion modules are made to support any level of customization based on consumer request.
 
Realibity and Stability
DS-A6 is cable less, fully-equipped with IC Onboard capability and provides small footprint which increase system stability and environmental tolerance. It is certified by industrial product quality tests, including anti-vibration (continuous vibrations) of up to 5 Grms, and anti-shock of up to 50 Grms tests. Also withstand industrial operation environments of temperature between -10 to 60°C. Supports a stable +12~+28V wide voltage input, with anti-interference capability and protects computer from overload short circuits.
 
User Friendly Design
Front access swappable 2.5” Drive Bay, SSD and SIM card slot, helps easy maintenance and friendly use. A service window is also available to easily access mSATA, Mini-PCIe and DRAM.
