Small-form-factor (SFF) rugged computers for military and industrial embedded computing introduced by Abaco
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Abaco Systems in Huntsville, Ala., is introducing the DAGRX and SAYBRX small-form-factor (SFF) line replaceable unit (LRU) computers for avionics, maritime, railway, and industrial automated guided vehicle (AGV) applications.
These computers are for ultra-compact, rugged computers for data and I/O processing in 8-to-36-volt DC military, industrial, and commercial, applications.
These rugged computers offer Intel processors and modular I/O in rugged and lab variants to optimize size, weight, and power consumption (SWaP).
The rugged units are for harsh environments to IP67, and lab variants are for development, test, and full deployment in moderate environments to IP54.

The DAGRX embedded computing system incorporates Intel's smallest CPU, the Intel ATOM E3845 Quad Core 1.91 GHz low SWaP-C solution. Power consumption typically is around 13 Watts at 28 volts DC. The lab variant has an operating temperature range of -20 to 60 degrees Celsius at the baseplate, while the rugged variant operates in temperatures from -40 to 85 C.
DAGRX can be configured with: MIL-STD-1553, ARINC 429, GPS, serial I/O, Wi-Fi, digital I/O, 12-bit A/D, and CANbus, and as many as five 1000BASE-T ports.
All variants come standard with USB 2.0, USB 3.0, RS232. A single or multiple combination of I/O are available. Onboard memory starts at 64 gigabytes and is expandable through a 2.5-inch solid-state drive and mSATA options.
The lab variants feature commercial style connectors for power and I/O. Rugged variants feature MIL-DTL-38999-style connectors for power and I/O. DAGRX supports Linux and Windows operating systems.
The SAYBRX features the Intel i7-9850HE at 2.7 and 4.4 GHz TurboBoost and optional NVIDIA Quadro P2000 GPU. It offers all I/O available in the DAGRX but adds more USB, serial, DVI-I, and DisplayPort options. Expansion is via XMC/PMC, mPCIe and M.2. SAYBRX offers BIOS to support Windows, Linux, OpenGL, DirectX, NVIDIA PhysX, and NVIDIA 3D Vision.
