Advantech ARK-1388 In-Vehicle Box IPC
Irvine, California, May 28, 2009 - Advantech, a global leading industrial PC solution and service provider, is pleased to announce an ultra-compact, in-vehicle box IPC. ARK-1388 is a fanless embedded box IPC with focus on in-vehicle computing systems, which are frequently required to perform under very stringent power requirements. These include load-dump, cold-crank, very low power consumption at light loads, and low-noise operation. Additionally, these solutions are generally required to be very compact and thermally efficient.
The dimensions of the ARK-1388 are 18.9 (W) x 6.38 (H) x 13.1 (D) cm, and it weighs only 1.9kg. ARK-1388 delivers excellent computing and multi-media performance with an Intel® Core(TM)2 Duo ULV U7500 1.06 GHz / Celeron® M ULV 1.06 GHz processor and an Intel® 945GM GM chipset; and with the efficient thermal design, the operating temperatures run from -20 to 60º C. It supports a rich I/O interface, including four serial ports, LVDS and VGA dual independent display, 4 x USBs, 1 x LAN, DIO with isolation and relay function, and amplified audio line-out, plus safe boot and safe shutdown functions. ARK-1388 is the best choice for in-vehicle solutions in trucks, buses, wagons, taxis and trains.
Smart Power Control
Due to the demands of the in-vehicle power environment, the ARK-1388 box IPC works with both 12-volt and 24-volt systems, and is designed with safe boot and safe shutdown to offer safe and stable solutions. The design incorporates hardware power protection and smart software monitor and control features. The ARK-1388 may be powered with DC input from 9 to 32 VDC, and supports a minimum of 6VDC ISO-7637-2 cold crank and load dump. Advantech also includes a utility that allows the SI and/or the customer to adjust their power voltage, delay on/off timings, and save and load presets. In addition, the rugged, fanless aluminum case provides passive cooling for extra quiet operation. The system also offers excellent shock and vibration protection, easily passing 50 and 5 Grms shock and vibration tests.
In-vehicle Wireless Life
Today, entertainment and wireless navigation functions are fast becoming customary, if not mandatory, and more and more applications require in-vehicle computing systems. ARK-1388 box IPC is equipped with an 802.11b/g WLAN card, a built in GPS receiver which supports 50 channels, GPRS support, 3.5G antenna, and supports VGA and LVDS dual independent display mode for multi-media applications. Optional GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA modules can easily be interchanged. In-vehicle applications can be expected to become both more convenient and more interesting in the very near future.
ARK-1388 box IPC is a compact, powerful, all-in-one, fanless embedded system, designed for rugged and space-critical in-vehicle applications. ARK-1388 saves customer effort and development time, and solves the instability problems which can be caused by external wireless devices, vehicle power modules, and fans.
