Slim and Small Design with High Expansion Capability
ROM-5420 is a highly scalable SMARC (Smart Mobility Architecture) form factor module of only 82mm x 50mm size, and an overall assembly height of under 8mm. Based on the Freescale ARM® Cortex™-A9 i.MX6 dual core processor, ROM-5420 supports triple independent displays—Parallel, HDMI and LVDS; plus SATA-II, USB 2.0/OTG, 1 x PCIe, 1 x GBe LAN, 12 x GPIO, 2 x CAN bus, 5 x I2C, 4 x UART and 1 x MIPI camera input. Moreover, ROM-5420 also supports lithium-ion batteries that have +3 ~ 5.25V power input design with suspend mode under 0.3W which makes them an excellent choice for portable applications.
Add-on Value on Security Protection
ROM-5420 offers Security API, a software API for anti-copy protection that is included in the software program and protects the user's image from unauthorized copying. What's more, customer can tailor API and middleware development to their application and apply it to other Advantech RISC products. And, they don't need to update the API once they upgrade their hardware platform in the future.
Streamlined RISC Design-in Support Services
Advantech brings the ROM-5420 RISC-based Computer-on-Module to market together with their renowned RISC Design-in Support Services. A high value development process for modular designs includes planning, design, integration, and validation phases; this streamlines the whole design procedure and helps customers rapidly develop their own innovations. In addition to standard OS support such as Embedded Linux v3.0.35, Advantech provides three-levels of software service: Evaluative Image, Board Support Package (BSP), and Custom Design Services. This helps customers reduce development time, reduce design costs, and reduce time-to-market.
SMARC ROM-5420 is available now, along with the ROM-DB5900 evaluation carrier board for easy integration and design reference. Supplied schematics and layout checklists for carrier board development help you to develop your own carrier board much more easily than before. Additionally, Linux BSP, test utilities, design utilities, and reference codes are ready for application development and device integration. Please contact your local salesperson or visit the website for more details.
