From Eurotech a new PC/104 Plus 4 channels USB 2.0 Module with 2A high current drive

Amaro, Udine (Italy) October 28, 2004.

Eurotech today presents the COM-1440, a high speed PC104 Plus USB 2.0 board designed to interface different USB devices. This module will increase the application coverage with the introduction of two high power USB ports that allow direct powering of connected devices. Two of the four downstream ports support 500mA drive and two ports can supply up to 2A. These switches allow powering of USB devices through the cable simplifying power supply design of the system. Ideal applications for the COM-1440 board include various removable or fixed mass storage media, USB memory keys, printers, cameras, CD drives etc. Devices such as a high speed USB 2,5″ hard drive The USB header pin outs follow the general standard scheme of USB ports.

CTR-1471: A New PC/104-Plus JPEG-2000 Compressor Module with 8 independent videocomposite inputs

Amaro, Udine (Italy) September 22, 2004.

Eurotech today presents a a new and powerful JPEG-2000 Compressor Module: the CTR-1471.

The CTR-1471 is a high performance Eight channels Video Compressor that benefits by the features and the enhanced quality provided by the JPEG2000 (J2K) – ISO/IEC15444-1 image compression standard.

The Module implements the computationally intensive operations of the JPEG2000 image compression standard as well as provides a fully compliant code stream generation for most applications that supports real-time video encoding.

The CTR-1471 provides high quality solutions for use in professional video and Embedded PC systems based on PC/104-Plus modules.

The CTR-1471 can process images at a rate of 40M samples/sec in reversible mode, and at higher rates when used in irreversible mode. It contains a dedicated wavelet transform engine, an on board memory system and an embedded RISC processor, which can provide a complete JPEG2000 compression/decompression solution.

The CTR-1471 can be featured to resist vibrations and temperature extremes.
