Advantech's New Series of Intel® Atom(TM) Processor Based Embedded IPCs Offers Exceptional, Cost-Effective Low Power Solutions


Irvine, California, - Advantech, a leading provider of embedded platforms and integration services, announces today its new line of Intel® Atom(TM) processor based embedded IPCs - the ARK-1360, ARK-3202, and ARK-3360. The new IPCs merge ultra low power capabilities and outstanding system performance with competitive pricing sure to favorably impact one's project development costs. The new embedded IPCs facilitate designs where size-constraints and overheating have always been a factor. As such, in-vehicle, retail, signage, surveillance, and factory control applications all stand to benefit from Advantech's new IPC line.

ARK-1360 Ultra-compact Cost Effective Embedded IPC

Advantech's ARK-1360 offers four USB 2.0 ports, two COM ports, one 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port and one mini-PCIe socket expansion for wireless applications. All are powered by an Intel® Atom(TM) processor packed into a robust, ultra-compact, VESA mounted, fanless construction. The ARK-1360 features a single-board architecture with low power requirements. Low initial costs, reduced operating costs, and a long service life make this model an effective solution to fit any project budget.

ARK-3202 Embedded IPC with Comprehensive I/O Functions

Advantech's ARK-3202 is powered by the Intel® Atom(TM) N270 processor, and features a rugged chassis with multiple I/O interfaces. Additional features include support for dual DVI and VGA displays, mic in, line out, dual Giga LAN, optional 8-bit DIO, five USB 2.0, optional GPS on-board, and up to six serial ports with RS-422/485 auto flow control. The ARK-3202 consumes low power and offers excellent flexibility by way of its I/O interfaces. It is highly adaptable to a variety of engineering applications and industries.

ARK-3360 High Performance Dual Display Embedded IPC

The Advantech ARK-3360 is a high performance industrial computer that supports Intel® Atom(TM) N450/D510 processors, and features a built-in Intel® 3.5 generation chipset. It supports dual displays, high-resolution wide-screen, three GbE ports, six USB 2.0 ports, a maximum of six COM ports, and MiniPCIe/MiniPCI expansion for communication modules such as HSDPA and WLAN. The ARK-3360 brings high performance and high expansion capabilities to diverse engineering applications.

Advantech's new ARK units are ultra-compact for easy setup and maintenance. Both the ARK-3202 and 3360 support a wide range of operating temperatures, from -20° to 60° C. They support a wide range of input voltages, from 12 to 24 VDC, with comprehensive I/O functions that consumpe low levels of power. Advantech's new ARK units bring embedded design solutions to applications where overheating concerns and size restrictions have traditionally been hinderances to development. In-vehicle, retail, signage, surveillance, and factory control applications are just some of the sectors which can benefit from Advantech's new low-power, embedded IPC line.
