SWaP-optimized, Open Standards-based Platform Improves Performance for Rugged, Space-constrained Applications

Elma enhances line of Cisco-enabled rugged embedded services routers

Technical Highlights

  • Easy CPU, storage and I/O upgrades reduce tech refresh costs
  • Configurable design uses Type 6 COM Express and mini PCIe modules
  • Highly flexible, expandable I/O enables fast system redefinition
  • Specifically designed for rugged applications needing high temperature, shock and vibration resistance

FREMONT, Calif., January 2018 – Elma Electronic Inc. now offers the ComSys-5301, a highly rugged version of its Cisco-enabled embedded computing system designed for SWaP-constrained, harsh environments.  Based on the industry standard COM Express and mini PCIe form factors, the modular computer is easily configured and upgraded with application-targeted I/O, CPU and storage.

Designed using Elma’s extensive packaging expertise, the new ComSys-5301 endures tough environmental conditions to provide highly reliable, long-term performance. With special attention paid to SWaP optimization, the system is lightweight and energy-efficient, while still offering high performance processing.

The integration of advanced computing technology with a rugged, compact design makes the ComSys-5301 perfect for use in ground vehicles, unmanned systems and vehicles, drilling and mining operations, command centers and other mission critical applications.

The fanless ComSys-5301 uses passive conduction cooling and features a 4th Gen Intel Celeron CPU, solid state storage, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports and flexible I/O configurations. Robust MIL-38999 connectors ensure that the I/O interfaces can withstand severe environmental conditions, such as intense shock, vibration and humidity, typically found in rugged, mobile applications.

Approximate weight is just 6 lbs. and the system can be wall or table mounted, per VITA 75.

Pricing for the ComSys-5301 is dependent on configuration.

Designing Robust 5G Power Amplifiers for the Real World

Sponsored by Keysight

Simulating 5G power amplifier (PA) designs at the component and system levels with authentic modulation and high-fidelity behavioral models increases predictability, lowers risk, and shrinks schedules. Simulation software enables multi-technology layout and multi-domain analysis, evaluating the impacts of 5G PA design choices while delivering accurate results in a single virtual workspace. This application note delves into how authentic modulation enhances predictability and performance in 5G millimeter-wave systems.
