The Delta 2000/E complements the CANBERRA Delta 2000 communications converter product line by providing more customer-driven flexibility. The Delta 2000/E is a small form factor platform intended for high-end embedded applications,
specifically smart camera applications. The Delta 2000/E’s increased processing power, lower development time, and standardized interface to daughter cards (PC104) allows customers to expand the system easily through the industry standard PC104 architecture, which does not require the long development time of custom daughter cards. The system also utilizes the on-board networking for the high throughput applications needing 10 Base-T communication speeds. For the high noise and harsh environments, one optically isolated RS-485 channel has been included.
Since the Delta 2000/E is essentially an embedded 486 PC, operating systems such as Linux and Windows CE can be used. Because the Delta 2000/E can run the Linux OS, code development can be performed on any desktop PC running Linux without the need for any cross compilers or expensive development environments. |
