CUPID core
Single-Board-Computer with 532 MHz CPU, CAN and RS-485
CUPID core is an ARM11 based single-board-computer, where all components are placed on one PCB. Our core versions are designed for headless applications, where no display is needed.
The fanless SBC is also available with display as CUPID open frame or in a complete housing as CUPID boxed. The 532 MHz Freescale i.MX35 ARM1136 CPU offers enough power for sophisticated applications. CUPID will be shipped either with Windows CE 6.0 R3 or Embedded Linux.
Starter Kits with preinstalled ROM images for Windows CE 6.0 R3 or Embedded Linux as well as optimized driver and support packages simplify the project entry.
