VersaLogic's PC/104 SBC and Expansion Modules Embedded Within Personal Flying Machine | 2009-01-01 | VersaLogic |
| The SoloTrek needed a very compact, lightweight, low-power, fanless computer with a variety of I/O options. The computer also had to be extremely reliable, since lives could depend on its continuous operation. The Panther and expansion modules from VersaLogic fit the bill, with their high reliability, small 3.6" x 3.8" footprint, low power consumption and significant expansion capability. The PC/104 modules' stacking feature contributes to the system's reliability. Whereas slot-type expansion allows boards to move and separate in high-vibration environments, the PC/104 modules stack together and hold in place with screws and standoffs.

CaridianBCT Uses VersaLogic Single Board Computers for Automated Blood Collection System | 2009-01-01 | VersaLogic |
| CaridianBCT designs automated blood collection systems that collect a combination of red blood cells, platelets and plasma from donors. At the heart of the FDA-approved Trima system is a VersaLogic EBX single board computer that automates the process and increases the efficiency of blood collection. The state-of-the-art technology uses cell separators that allow for the division of the various blood components in a high-speed centrifugal field while the device is still connected to the donor. This process allows collection of any combination of red blood cells, platelets, and plasma while returning unneeded components to the donor thereby allowing more frequent donations.

BarcoView Selects VersaLogic for Display Station | 2009-01-01 | VersaLogic |
| BarcoView relies on VersaLogic's VSBC-8 EBX board as the onboard embedded computer in its high-performance graphics display systems. The BarcoView DS 251 Display Station is designed for use in naval, airborne, and ground-based command and control facilities. It incorporates a rugged LCD with a Pentium III VSBC-8 and custom BarcoView daughtercard into one space-conserving standalone unit. Important standard features of the DS-251 include network radar broadcasting, LCD display capabilities, an Application-Specific Expansion Slot (ASES), and "Thin client" and "Thick client" functionality. The unique radar broadcasting feature allows a signal to be sent over a network, either to other units or other computers which may viewed by technicians at any networked location.

Futuristic Advertising Relies on VersaLogic Computing Power | 2009-01-01 | VersaLogic |
| Vert Inc.'s "VID", or Vert Intelligent Display, is a mobile video graphics display module that mounts to the top of taxicabs and receives advertising media through a wireless internet connection. The VID uses GPS to identify its location and change advertising messages to correspond with advertiser's geographic selections. This technology allows, for instance, ads displayed in the financial district to be different than those displayed when the taxi is in a university neighborhood. The Gecko single board computer integrated into the display controls the ultra-bright LCD and coordinates communication with the central server and GPS system.

Designing Embedded Systems for Testability | 2009-01-01 | Intel |
| The purpose of this paper is to provide a context of how to utilize the test and debug features to design systems using Intel embedded processors and chipsets. There are various interfaces of the design which must be implemented. In some cases the interfaces must be shared, depending upon operation at a particular point in time. For example, the eXtended Debug Port (XDP) port utilizing the Test Access Port (TAP) controller during debug and manufacturing/self test equipment utilizing the TAP controller during board verification. Understanding the implementation is key to designing a successful product in terms of time-to-market. This application note specifically focuses on the TAP controller facilities, XDP facilities, and the XOR facilities provided on the chips.
