The Catalyst XL is a Small Form Factor CoM, based on the Intel Atom Z500P processor and the Intel System Controller Hub US15WP (Intel SCH US15W). The Intel Atom processor is implemented using 45nm, High-K technology to offer high-end performance while reducing power consumption, and is validated with the Intel SCH US15W chipset which integrates graphics, memory, and I/O into a small package.
The Catalyst XL leverages the advantages of this Intel technology to provide the precise embedded solution for high performance in low power applications. The Catalyst XL comes in the 67x100mm small form factor and offers comprehensive I/O and multimedia capabilities while consuming less than 5W of power per system. The adapter board gives customers the option to either start with a standard version or design their own to meet unique application requirements while reducing time to market.
The Catalyst XL offers further flexibility by supporting several operating system options including Microsoft Windows Embedded Standard, CE, Wind River Linux 3.0, and targeted real time operating systems (RTOS).
