Axiomtek SBC Utilises Intel Atom Processing Power

Axiomtek has announced the SBC81207 PICMG 1.0 full-size CPU card for embedded applications such as IP-PBX automation. The SBC81207 is based on the new generation of Intel Atom processors - N450, D410 and D510. The single-core Intel Atom processors N450 and D410 and the dual-core Intel Atom processor D510 are all clocked at 1.66GHz. Having integrated graphics and memory controllers on the CPU itself creates the benefits of smaller footprint, higher performance per watt and lower power consumption than previous Intel Atom processor solutions.

The SBC81207 has paired the processor with the Intel 82801HM I/O controller to deliver system performance, full I/O functions and support for full DDR2 memory and legacy PCI and ISA operation environments. The SBC81207 full-size single-board computer serves a wide range of applications where flexibility, low-power consumption and thermal efficiency are important. As for power usage, the N450, D410 and D510 have TDPs of 5W, 10W and 13W, respectively. The power saving allows the SBC81207 to achieve a low total cost of ownership.

The SBC also meets current requirements for the Windows 7 environment. The SBC81207 single-board computer includes six USB 2.0 ports and three serial ATA ports with transfer rates up to 3GB/s. Other onboard I/O features include two COM ports, dual Gigabit LAN, FDD, PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, HD audio and Compactflash for SSD storage devices. With LPC I/O integrated, the SBC81207 provides reliable operation and non-stop capability with watchdog timer, as well as the Smart Fan feature that controls the fan speed to keep temperature within a specified range.

The low-power SBC supports Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP embedded and Linux. The SBC81207 is fully compatible with Axiomtek's PICMG 1.0 full-size backplanes and the company offers various industrial housing enclosures and can assist with any customer's industrial integration needs. This CPU board will be available around the end of June 2010.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
