Kansas City, USA and Cambridge, England – June, 2006 – Arcom´s new Development Kit allows faster and easier development of a wide range of embedded devices in a Linux environment. The kit´s SBC-GX533 board has a compact Arcom Embedded Linux image installed in its onboard Flash. All onboard hardware features are supported, allowing unrestricted access to their functionality, while all unnecessary software functions have been removed, leaving a compact image of just 13 MB. This can save weeks or even months of development effort compared with configuring a Linux image from scratch. Developers can start work on their project immediately, either by writing their own applications code or by accessing the nearly unlimited range of freely available open source applications.

N.A.T. presents the telecommunication interface board NPMC-STM4

A highly optimized PMC with a 622Mbps optical interface OC-12 for SDH/SONET add/drop and multiplexing applications....

N.A.T. the specialist in high performance connectivity products for data and communication solutions today introduces the newest member of its PMC telecom product range, the NPMC-STM4.

The NPMC-STM4 is targeted at telecom applications dealing with SDH (Synchronous Digital Hirachie), such as SS7, ISDN or 3G/3.5G mobile applications in optical OC-12/STM-4 and SONET environments.

The onboard add/drop multiplexer/demultiplexer chipset makes the NPMC-STM4 an ideal single board platform to interface between the frame oriented STM-4/SDH networks and classic TDM (Time Division Multiplex) standards as E1/T1/J1 or E3/T3/J3. Possible applications are i.e. high density add/drop or terminal multiplexer as well as edge routers and digital modems or digital cross-connect systems.

Hitec Lowers The Cost of RF Screening Can Development

Using computer aided design software and computer controlled metal punching technology, Hitec are able to create rapid prototypes without the need for expensive and timely tooling development.
..

Cambridge metalwork company, Hitec, have announced a new service that will lower the cost of screening can development for European technology companies. Using computer aided design software and computer controlled metal punching technology, Hitec are able to create rapid prototypes without the need for expensive and timely tooling development.

RF screening cans are essential components in today´s electronic equipment. They are used to limit the emission of radio frequency signals that is generated from electronic circuits. Developers often have to ensure that radio frequency emissions comply with current regulation; Hitec's services will help developers achieve compliant designs in the shortest possible time. Although Hitec are able to develop custom screening devices, t...

The PMC-MC-X4 adapter / carrier converter card provides the ability to install up to 4 (four) PMC cards into a small enclosure. The PMC-MC-X4 has two PMC card slots mounted front and rear to create a compact arrangement with 4 PMC slots. Suitable for 32/64 with 33/ 66 MHz bus operation. The carrier provides power supplies for the +5, +3.3, +12, and minus 12 from a 12V wall mount transformer supply. Arbitration is accomplished with a CPLD mounted to the card. The CPLD also provides a selectable 66/33 MHz reference clock to be routed to each of the slots.

The PCI VIO is programmable allowing 5V or 3.3V PMCs to be used. The voltage select pins are not installed on the PMC-MC-X4. Many PMCs are...
