$98 Ethernet Enabled DOS Controller from JK microsystems
February 19th, 2004, DAVIS, CA -
At only $98 per unit, JK microsystems' new picoFlash is a 186 compatible DOS computer with Ethernet whose performance rivals competitor's Ethernet-enabled products for a fraction of the cost.
Slightly larger than a credit card, the picoFlash is a fully programmable, compact single board computer ideally equipped for data acquisition, industrial control and communications applications. Standard units feature a fast, 40MHz RDC R8822 microprocessor, NE2000 compatible Ethernet, 512K DRAM and 512K Flash memory, two serial ports, 16 bits of I/O, hardware clock/calendar and a socket to expand non-volatile memory using M-Systems DiskOnChip products. The preloaded, royalty-free DOS operating system and flash file system provide a fast, yet convenient environment for embedded development. Along with a watchdog timer, 5V DC power, RS-485 serial port capability, LCD support and aggressive pricing, the picoFlash single-board computer covers many embedded Ethernet designs for the OEM market.
Available development kits are $129 and include a picoFlash controller, necessary cables, Borland C/C++ version 4.52 compiler, driver libraries and documentation. Free technical support from JK microsystems' engineers is available via email or the new online Support Forums at forums.jkmicro.com
