Description
The Eagle is a rugged board-level embedded computer that features a 6-core Xeon-E processor, soldered down high-speed NVMe SSD storage, and error correcting RAM. It provides an ideal solution when high-performance computing is required in extreme environments.
The Eagle is based on Intel®’s 9th Generation Xeon-E processor which features 6 cores and Hyper-Threading. In addition the Eagle includes high-speed SSD storage (NVMe) and up to 32 GB of error-correcting RAM. This makes it ideal for high-performance embedded computing needs in defense, aerospace, medical, smart security, and energy applications.
On-board I/O includes two USB 3.1 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, RS-232/422/485 serial ports, 8254 timer/counters, I2C support, and 8 digital I/O lines. The Eagle’s high-performance comes with a compact 90 x 96 mm footprint. Its 37 mm height fits in most 1U enclosures.
On-board power conditioning supports nominal 12V input between 10V – 15VDC.
The Eagle, a member of the VersaLogic EPU product family, is designed and tested for full industrial temperature (-40° to +85°C) operation and meets MIL-STD-202H specifications for shock and vibration. It uses latching connectors to address cable detachment issues in hostile environments.
VersaLogic’s 10+ year product life support ensures long-term availability. Long lifecycle products avoid expensive upgrades, redesigns, and migrations that come from shorter lifecycle products.
