68ARM1 - 3U OpenVPX SBC with Configurable Multi-function I/O all on One Board

Eletter Product

NAI’s 68ARM1 is a modular 3U VPX ARM Cortex A9-based, Single Board Computer (SBC) that can be configured with up to three NAI intelligent I/O and communications function modules. Ideally suited for rugged defense, industrial, and commercial applications, the 68ARM1 delivers off-the-shelf solutions that accelerate deployment of SWaP-optimized systems.

Versatile Architecture
NAI’s Custom-On-Standard Architecture™ (COSA™) offers a choice of over 40 intelligent I/O, communications, and Ethernet switch functions, providing the highest packaging density and greatest flexibility of any 3U SBC in the industry. Pre-existing, fully-tested functions can be combined in an unlimited number of ways quickly and easily. Each I/O function has dedicated processing, unburdening the SBC from unnecessary data management overhead.

The ARM Cortex A9 processor is a low power, cost-sensitive, multi-core processor delivering exceptional levels of performance and power efficiency with all the functionality required in rugged, embedded SWaP-optimized programs for the Defense and Aerospace industries.

Background Built-In-Test (BIT)
BIT continuously monitors the status of all I/O during normal operations and is totally transparent to the user. SBC resources are not consumed while executing BIT routines. This simplifies maintenance, assures operational readiness, reduces life-cycle costs and – keeps your systems mission ready.

Board Support Package (BSP) and Software Support Kit (SSK)
The 68ARM1 includes BSP and SSK support for Wind River VxWorks®, and for Xilinx® PetaLinux. In addition, SSKs are supplied with source code and board-specific library I/O APIs to facilitate system integration.

Eliminate man-months of integration with a configured, field-proven 3U VPX ARM Cortex A9 SBC from NAI.
