Miniature industrial 64-bit dual-core module available halves lead time

TRITON- TXRZ module based on Renesas RZ/G2L; Fully supported in the UK by Direct Insight

Oxfordshire, UK June 2022: Direct Insight, the UK-based, technical systems integrator and reseller of system-on-module (SoM) and other embedded systems, has launched the TRITON-TXRZ, a miniature low-cost, full industrial temperature, 64-bit dual-core module based on the Renesas RZ/G2L processor. Manufactured by Direct Insight’s long-standing partner, Aachen-based Ka-Ro Electronics, TRITON-TXRZ is available on half the lead time of modules with similar performance that are based on other popular MPUs.

The TRITON-TXRZ measures just 68mm x 26mm and is available as a standard SODIMM system-on-module and also in the production-friendly solder-down-module format.  TRITON-TXRZ features a powerful dual-core ARM Cortex-A55 processor running at up to 1200MHz.  The SoM is available with either 512MB or 1GB DDR3L memory, as well as 4GB eMMC Flash, and a dual 24-bit RGB / 4-Lane MIPI-DSI display output. Also included is an ARM MALI-G31 GPU for rich, touch-and-gesture GUI support as well as 1080P30 H.264 video decode and encode. Comprehensive connectivity is rounded off with dual Ethernet, dual CAN, SD/eMMC, dual USB, as well as up to 5x UARTs, 4x I2C ports and 3x SPI. There is a third MCU processor core based on an ARM Cortex-M33.

Comments David Pashley, Direct Insight’s MD: “Compared to other processors of their class, the Renesas RZ/G2L has good availability, therefore we can reduce lead times for our customers if they are able to consider this processor rather than other options. The TRITON-TXRZ offers exceptional graphics and video performance across the full industrial temperature specification of -40 to +85°C at a reasonable price. Therefore it is highly suitable for a broad range of industrial HMI solutions plus streaming video capture and display devices and audio systems.”

TRITON-TXRZ comes with a Linux BSP with full sources and installable VM for development. In common with other members of the pin-compatible TRITON-TX family, TRITON-TXRZ requires only a single 3.3 -5.5V supply and provides up to 300mA 3.3V power output for use on the baseboard.

Direct Insight also offers a development kit, with optional 5.7″ touch screen.

Electrical Connectors for Hermetically Sealed Applications
Sponsored by Mouser Electronics and Bel
Many hermetic chambers today require electrical pathways to provide internal equipment with power, data or signals, or to receive data and signals from equipment within the chamber. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton and Brad Taras from Cinch Connectivity Solutions explore the role that seals and connectors play in the performance of hermetic chambers. They examine the methodologies to determine hermetic seal leaks, the benefits of epoxy hermetic seals, and how Cinch Connectivity’s epoxy-based seals and hermetic connectors can add value to your next design.
