The DIMM-RM9200 offers performance up to 200 MIPS and is equipped with up to 64 MB SDRAM and 32MB flash memory. Based on Atmels AT91RM9200, the ECO920 provides several on-chip peripherals, such as USB host and device interface, serial interfaces, audio, Compact Flash (socket onboard), A/D-Converter and much more. In addition, the 100 MBit/s on-chip Ethernet controller combined with an onboard PHY provides a fully functional Ethernet interface.
On request the modules can be delivered with mounted SD-card socket. The module fits into a standard SO-DIMM.

These modules come either with a customized real time Linux or Windows CE OS. On request we can supply a board support package (BSP), certified by Microsoft, as well as a collection of tailor-made drivers and libraries.

Software

Flashn Go is a very simple but powerful UI-based tool running under WindowsXP, which allows you to connect and configure your platform, download and run your applications. Maintenance or recovery of a faulty system is made extremely simple: with Flashn Go you can update the firmware or the OS with just a click.
DIMM-RM9200 SDK (Software Development Kit) is a collection of all the libraries and header files necessary for application development on the ECO920 platform. Microsoft Embedded Visual Tools are required to use this SDK.
Ready to go- BIOS is much more than a typical bootloader. Apart from initializing and configuring your hardware, it also lets you update your platform through SD-cards, TFTP servers etc... It comes along with a powerful API set with which you can test various features of your platform.

By default the platform comes with the latest version of the Windows CE operating system. The OS includes drivers for Ethernet, Serial ports and USB Host. Additionally, the OS provides users with a Flash disk storage, using Intels latest IntelPSM flash file system. To develop your own applications you will only need Microsoft Embedded Visual Tools.

Key Features:

DIMM-RM9200 modules are shipped with a standardized operating system (image) and related drivers and libraries. To customize the operating system to the individual requirements of your application, the Windows CE board support package (BSP) is required, which is available as binary for download on our FTP Server.
To use the BSP, the Microsoft Platform Builder is essential. You may need to purchase this additonal software from one of the Microsoft Windows Embedded distributors.
