Built for Anything

Powered by the Marvell Armada 385 Dual Core 1.3 GHz Arm® Cortex®-A9-based CPU, the TS-7800-V2 industrial Single Board Computer (SBC) stands out from the crowd with its high performance components, connectivity options, and an unbelievable feature set packaged into a small footprint in both size and power. It's a general purpose, low-power SBC ready to tackle demanding applications including data acquisition, IoT, industrial automation, and anything in between.

Robust and Rugged Engineering

Each component on the TS-7800-V2 has been carefully chosen to ensure reliable operation in the field. Data is reliably stored in the onboard eMMC flash. With the included heat sink the fanless design of the TS-7800-V2 is able to withstand high vibration, and even with two CPU cores running at 1GHz and tasked to their max the system can operate at a wide temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C.

Short Time to Market with Long Term Deployment

A productive out-of-the-box experience includes pre-installed Linux OS, development tools, and utilities for controlling PC104 peripheral boards, DIO, CAN bus, a variety of serial interfaces and bringing in data from the analog ports, or monitoring the system temperature. The development kit makes sure you have all the necessary connections and cables to get off the ground quickly. The guaranteed 10+ year lifecycle ensures a long-term deployment in the field, free from expensive replacements that come from short, disposable lifecycles which are all too common.

The Next Generation of an Old Favorite

The TS-7800-V2 is a replacement for the original TS-7800 product while maintaining compatibility in electrical, mechanical, and software at the driver API level. The TS-7800-V2 provides a straightforward, low risk upgrade for users of previous TS-7800, bringing enhanced processor performance, enhanced flash storage, and improved protection against obsolescence, all at no additional cost. In addition to providing all of the same I/O as the original system, the TS-7800-V2 also offers several significant upgrades including:

• 1.3 GHz Dual Core CPU
• 1 GB RAM (ECC can be enabled, halving RAM capacity)
• 4 GB eMMC Flash (4 GB MLC)
• 20k LUT Cyclone FPGA (145 Various I/O Pins)
• Dual USB 3.0 ports
• Added CAN port included in the base price
• Added Wireless 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0 BLE onboard radio options
• Added Accelerometer option
  
• CPU heat sink included in base price
• RTC and temperature sensor

The TS-7800-V2 single board computer features high performance hardware in a small, enclosable footprint, featuring:

• Marvell Armada 385 Dual Core 1.3 GHz Arm-based CPU
• 1 DDR3 RAM (ECC support available)
• 4 GB MLC eMMC Flash (MLC)
• 1x Gigabit Ethernet ports
• 2x SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Ports

Industry standard interfaces, such as SuperSpeed USB 3.0 host, Gigabit Ethernet, RS-232 serial ports, and more are included. Additional storage or boot image is possible through the microSD socket. A battery-backed real time clock (BBRTC) keeps accurate time for the system and a watchdog timer is there to help when a system becomes unresponsive in the field.

The TS-7800-V2 features popular I/O and interfaces, including:

• 2x SATA Ports (1x MiniCard with TS-7800-V2-DMW3I)
• 1x USB Device Port as a dedicated console interface
• 5x RS-232
• 4x TTL UART
• 2x RS-485
• 1x CAN Bus
• 110x GPIO
• 1x Analog Input (0 - 5 VDC)
• 6x PWM Channels
• Micro SD Card or Full Size SD Card Sockets
• Optional onboard wireless 802.11b/g/n and Bluetooth BLE module

The system comes with out of the box support for simple human machine interfaces using a 2x24 character display and a 4x4 keypad interface. The on board analog to digital converter supports interfacing to analog sensors.

The TS-7800-V2 also features a 20k LUT FPGA that could be customized with a variety of application specific interfaces or processing engines. Contact embeddedTS with the specifics of your application.

The TS-7800-V2 boots into a complete and familiar Linux 4.4.8 Kernel with the Debian Stretch distribution. Utilities and tools are preloaded to help you get the most out of the hardware features, like interfacing with the 2x24 LCD and matrix keypad for example. Other utilities make it easy to read the on-board accelerometer and analog to digital converter. Power management tools also exist for bringing the board into and out of sleep mode.

In keeping with the open source vision, we have the source code and binaries freely available for download from the TS-7800-V2 Files Repository and Github page. Further questions about available software can be answered by contacting our engineers via support.

By default, command line Debian Stretch is loaded which provides a massive repository of prebuilt applications and services and Debian provides a long history of focus on stability and support. embeddedTS has included several popular packages in the pre-installed image.

Software features include:

• U-Boot bootloader
• Linux Kernel 4.4.8
• Debian Stretch distribution support
• Many programming languages supported (C, C++, Python, node.js, etc.)
• Source code examples available
