Embedded computer on module
PowerPC®, 1.5 GHz | EM9A MEN Mikro Elektronik

The EM9A is a complete embedded SBC for use on any carrier board in different industrial environments. The final application consists of a stand-alone EM9A or an EM9A with an application-specific carrier card.

The EM9A is controlled by an integrated PowerPC® MPC8548 or MPC8543 processor (optionally with encryption unit) running at clock frequencies between 800 MHz and 1.5 GHz.

The EM9A is equipped with soldered DDR2 SDRAM for data and with NAND Flash for program storage. It provides access for three Gigabit Ethernet channels and two COM ports via its I/O connector J3.

Additional functionality such as graphics, touch, CAN bus, protocol converters etc. can be realized in an FPGA for the needs of the individual application. The corresponding connectors are available on a carrier board. Application software dynamically loads the functions of the FPGA.

The EM9A comes with MENMON™ support. This firmware/BIOS can be used for bootstrapping operating systems (from disk, Flash or network), for hardware testing, or for debugging applications without running any operating system.

The EM9A is a communication engine ideal for use in embedded applications, for instance as an embedded Linux server, but also for high-end automation and robot control under a real-time operating system.
