Embedded computing system on module (SOM) for industrial automation and medical introduced by Microchip
CHANDLER, Ariz. – Microchip Technology Inc. in Chandler, Ariz., is introducing the SAM9X60D1G-SOM ARM926EJ-S-based embedded computing system on module (SOM) for industrial and automation control, medical equipment, automotive telematics, infotainment, and electric vehicle chargers.
The SOM runs as quickly as 600 MHz, and offers software with bare metal or real-time operating system support through MPLAB Harmony3, or Linux mainlined distributions.
The SOM for industrial automation, based on the SAM9X60D1G system-in-package (SiP), is a 28-by-28-millimeter hand-solderable module that includes the microcontroller and double-data-rate in one package, along with power supplies, clocks, and memory storage.
The SAM9X60D1G-SOM embedded computing device has 4-gigabit SLC NAND Flash, also includes an MCP16501 power management IC (PMIC), and a 10/100 KSZ8081 Ethernet PHY and a 1 Kb Serial EEPROM with pre-programmed MAC address (EUI-48). It has secure boot with on-chip secure key storage (OTP), hardware encryption engine (TDES, AES, and SHA) and True Random Generator (TRNG).
Microchip provides hardware and software development support for the SAM9X60D1G-SOM including the SAM9X60D1G Curiosity Evaluation Kit (CPN: EV40E67A) featuring three Linux distributions: BuildRoot, Yocto and OpenWRT.
The bare-metal or RTOS-based systems are supported by MPLAB Harmony 3 embedded software framework, MPLAB X Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and MPLAB XC32 compiler.
