embedded world NanoBoard range extended with customization Altium’s deployment NanoBoards are standard, off-the-shelf design solutions that electronics designers can customize. By using Altium’s Innovation Station – Altium Designer combined with the desktop NanoBoard reconﬁgurable hardware development platform – electronics designers can develop and test device intelligence and transfer that design into the deployment NanoBoards. The extended range of deployment NanoBoards features the same mother board and choice of daughter and peripheral boards as the Altium Desktop NanoBoard. Designers will have the choice of using a deployment NanoBoard as a ﬁnal product, or integrating their deployment NanoBoards into larger systems such as mechanical devices. They will also be able to do semi-custom hardware design using the templates included with the Altium Designer software. The modular commercial enclosure system comprises basic units available in two sizes, a 1.0 and a 0.5 module. supports up to four peripheral boards. The main cover provides a four point locking system that secures and completes the product. The commercial enclosure’s casing will be available in a choice of colors, allowing engineers to deploy a distinctive and marketable product, different from the traditional grey or beige enclosures. The Industrial Hand Held Unit is a user-conﬁgurable device comprising two 3.5-inch touch screen displays and a user-deﬁnable pushbutton interface. The mother board supports an FPGA daughter board and single peripheral board. The completed electronics subassembly can be fully assembled, conﬁgured and tested prior to clipping it into the robust enclosure. An array of industry standard ports is supplied on the mother board and the user-deﬁned peripheral board offers electronics designers the ﬂexibility to create a fully customizable application. Embedded World Hall 11 Booth 236 They can be conﬁgured by designers and come with a range of interchangeable components for an array of installation options. The system is designed to support the pluggable NanoBoard hardware deployment platform and includes all of the templates, mounting details and graphics speciﬁcations required to produce a fully customized application. The standard enclosures accommodate a mother board with a choice of FPGA daughter boards and a 3.5 inch touch screen display. The standard 0.5 module provides for a maximum of two peripheral boards while the 1.0 module Board optimizes development for TriCore family Hitex has extended the tool range for Inﬁneon’s TriCore family. TriCore is a 32-bit controller unifying three cores: the RISC and CISC instruction sets and a DSP-core is available. Incorporating a range of peripheral functions the TriCore is suitable for a range of industrial applications. Tantino TriCore is a JTAG-debugger featuring a TriCore TC1130. The USB-driven tool comprises complete support of on-chip debug support (OCDS) break/trigger features, automatic voltage adjustment, full ﬂash support and automatic JTAG clock conﬁguration and adjustment. The Tantino Tricore as all Hitex sys40 tems runs with HiTOP, the universal IDE and user interface. The Hi- MOD applications development kit is a quick and powerful way to develop with the TC176x or TC1796. The kit includes a TC1796 microcontroller on advanced single board computer measuring 76.5mm x 68.0mm. All standard bus, input/output and peripheral signals are available on two parallel high-density 160-way connectors on the underside. Extra debugging signals are routed to an optional high-density 40-way connector on underside of board. The kit includes a code-size limited version of the HiTOP debugger and an evaluation version of the Tasking CTC v2 C/C++ compiler as well as the Inﬁneon Dave CPU conﬁguration and code generation tool.
