VL-EBX-11

Notice: The Python has reached the end of its off-the-shelf availability. Contact VersaLogic Sales for availability and extended lifecycle options.

A mid-performance single board computer that offers lower power consumption and superior performance over previous generation embedded computers. Advancements in technology allow the Python to be a more flexible core component in any embedded system, and reduce the amount of development time required to add specialized I/O or custom peripheral devices..

  • EBX Form Factor

    PC/104 and PC/104-Plus expansion with a full complement of on-board I/O

  • Geode LX 800 Processor

    500 MHz performance with lower power draw

  • High Performance Video

    Analog and LVDS flat panel outputs for 18 and 24-bit displays
