Komodo
SUMIT on EPIC SBC with Intel Core 2 Duo processor

Highlights

Overview

The Komodo is a versatile single board computer (SBC) that leverages the ultra-high performance of an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. This robust SBC is the ideal solution for demanding industrial, medical, defense, and aerospace applications where performance and dependability are crucial design factors.

Based upon the EPIC-sized industry standard footprint, the Komodo features the SUMIT expansion interface as defined by the Small Form Factor Special Interest Group (SFF-SIG). This provides OEMs with a stackable multi-board expansion interface that supports both high- and low-speed signals. This simplifies adding both standard and custom I/O boards to the system. The Komodo expansion interfaces include PCIe, USB, LPC, SPI, SMBus, as well as ISA bus support for PC/104 modules.

Like all VersaLogic products, this SBC is designed to support OEM applications where high reliability and long-term availability are required. From application design-in to 5+ guaranteed years of production life, the Komodo provides a durable embedded computer solution with an exceptional cost of ownership. The Komodo is manufactured and tested to the highest quality standards and is fully RoHS compliant. Customization is available, even in very low quantities.

Details

The combination of Intel’s dual core processor, along with its companion chipset, provide the majority of the Komodo’s features including high-speed video with LVDS and analog VGA output, four USB 2.0 ports, four serial ports, gigabit Ethernet, dual SATA interface, HD audio, and PS/2 keyboard and mouse support. The SUMIT interface provides three x1 PCIe lanes, LPC, SPI, SMBus, and four additional USB channels. The PC/104 connector provides ISA bus compatibility.

A MiniBlade socket and eUSB interface provide high-reliability flash storage, while VersaLogic’s SPX expansion interface creates additional access to cost-effective plug-in I/O solutions. The Komodo supports up to 4 GB of DDR3 system memory and is designed and tested to MIL-STD-202G shock and vibration standards.

The Komodo features an embedded BIOS with OEM enhancements from Phoenix Technologies. The field-reprogrammable BIOS supports custom defaults and the addition of firmbase applications for security processes, remote booting, and other pre-OS software functions. The Komodo is compatible with a variety of popular operating systems including Windows, Windows Embedded, Linux, VxWorks, and QNX.
