The XPand6904 is a rugged, sealed, and compact fanless embedded box PC utilizing the Intel® Atom™ E3800 family of processors. The XPand6904 provides a reliable and maintenance-free, cost-effective, computing platform ideally suited for environmentally challenging and space-constrained situations. It was specifically designed for Industrial PC (IPC), Human Machine Interface (HMI), industrial automation, and transportation applications, and its sealed design makes it ideal for medical and food-safe environments where it will be exposed to chemicals and moisture.
The XPand6904 supports the Intel® Atom™ E3800 family processor, which offers up to four cores at 1.91 GHz. The internal SATA SSD memory modules combine the convenience of high-capacity off-the-shelf storage with the reliability of solid-state non-volatile memory. The standard configuration includes two 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports, seven 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet ports, one USB 2.0 port, one RS-232 serial port, and six RS-232/422/485 serial ports.
The XPand6904 supports a wide input voltage range from 18 to 31.5 V DC; additional input voltages also may be supported by request. The XPand6904 can operate under demanding shock and vibration requirements, as well as the water-immersion requirements of IP67, due to its environmentally sealed and completely rugged design. The XPand6904 also supports operating temperatures from -40°C ambient to extreme high temperatures.
Out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Windows 7 or greater, as well as support for most modern Linux distributions, increases software flexibility. In addition, Wind River VxWorks and X-ES Enterprise Linux (XEL) Board Support Packages (BSPs) are available for the XPand6904. It also supports the open source coreboot bootloader, powered by Intel®’s Firmware Support Package (FSP), to enable ultra-fast boot times and drastically simplify system security.
