Overview
The TRITON ETN/I SBC is a DIMM format module
based on the new Intel XScale PXA255 cpu and includes Fast Ethernet
and 4 serial interfaces onboard together with an additional 200 pin
expansion interface.
TRITON-ETN/I is a complete computer, ingeniously implemented on a board smaller than a credit card, and ready to be designed into your embedded system. The ETN/I model includes a 400MHz Intel®XScale processor, SDRAM, Flash memory, Silicon ID and 100 Mbps Ethernet. It is possible to directly connect an LCD and PCMCIA / CF drive.
Despite these powerful features, the module occupies an area of just
67.6 x 36.6 mm and has a maximum height of only 7.3 mm is possible.
Industrial Temperature Specification
The TRITON-ETN/I operates from -45 degC to +85degC. It replaces the original ETN module that had 0..70 degC spec.
Marvell
Originally developed by Intel, the XScale product line was purchased by Marvell in 2006. Visit Marvell's XScale webpage
Expansion
The TRITON-ETN/I is supplied with a DIMM144 connector and two low-profile 100-pin SAMTEC connectors to provide the designer with access to most of the PXA255's signals for nearly unlimited expansion. See the Specifications below or download the datasheet for full connector pin-outs.
Low Power Consumption
The TRITON-ETN/I contains a Core Power Generator with more than 90% efficiency. Power consumption can be reduced by using a combination of sleep-mode and clock-rate selection:
- Sleep Mode : only 20mA @ 3.3V
- Maximum : 160mA to
250 mA @ 3.3V, depending on running processes
