Compact PC Module
February 1, 2016
The PC module for the Panel PC 2100 from B&R is much more powerful than its small size suggests.
The Panel PC 2100 from B&R is a full-fledged PC system in a compact housing. The system features the latest Intel Atom technology.
Equipped with a PC module, which has the same dimensions as a Smart Display Link or DVI receiver, any second generation automation panel can be turned into a full-fledged panel PC - including completely closed panels mounted on a support arm.
Available with single-, dual- or quad-core processors, the computing power of the Panel PC 2100 is fully scalable. "At the high range of performance, it is even possible to exceed the performance of Core i3 chips. Regardless of the variant, no fans or other rotating components means that no maintenance is required," said a company spokesperson. Other standard features include 2 GB Ethernet interfaces as well as one USB 2.0 and one USB 3.0 interface. Fieldbus technology such as POWERLINK or CAN can be individually configured through the use of interface modules, and compact MLC-based CFast cards up to 60 GB and more are available.
The graphics engine used in Intel Atom processors is derived from Core i technology and provides processing all the way up to full HD. This is also the first time that support for DirectX 11 is provided in this segment, opening up more possibilities for enhanced graphic capabilities in SCADA and other HMI systems.
