Fox Board G20
ACME Systems has released its new Linux embedded Single Board Computer – the FOX Board G20. The Fox Board G20 is built around the Atmel AT91SAM9G20 microcontroller based on a 400Mhz ARM9 CPU. The board has been designed to reduce time to market on embedded development projects and is particularly useful for applications such as Solid-state web servers and gateways as well as OEM embedded devices enhanced with Internet connectivity and Linux flexibility.
The on board SDK (editor, compiler, link, library, make etc.) allows users to install and compile a multitude of applications directly on the FOX Board G20. Supported programming languages include C, C++, Python, Perl, Java, PHP, TCL and many more. The ARM9 also supports the most popular Linux distributions such as Debian, Gentoo, OpenWRT and OpenEmbedded. The Fox Board G20 also includes two 40-pin sockets giving the user possibility to implement RS232/ RS485/RS42, I2C, SPI, GPIO, A/D and PWM interfaces.
In addition, the FOX Board G20 includes 2 x USB 2.0 host ports, 1 x Ethernet 10/100 port, 1 x USB device port, 1 x debug serial port (3.3V), 2 x serial ports (3.3V), 1 x serial port for 4D Systems’ OLED modules (http://www.4dsystems.com.au), on-board µSD socket, 5V DC power supply input, Real Time Clock with an on board backup battery and GPIO Lines (3.3V).
The versatility, small size, and low cost of the FOX Board G20 provide the user with abundance of flexibility and options for their embedded designs at the same time reducing development costs and time to market.
