Eurotech's compact, low power embedded system based on Intel Atom Processor

Eurotech has launched the Catalyst LP, a new compact, low-power embedded system based on the Intel Atom processors N450, D410 and D510. The Catalyst LP embedded system offers high-performance graphics for applications requiring 2-D and 3-D visualization with high-resolution graphics capabilities, including digital signage. The Catalyst LP is suitable for industrial, medical, gaming, human-machine interface applications.

The key features of Eurotech's Catalyst LP are,

Compact 67x100mm form factor, flexibility in allowing migration to Intel Hyper-Threading Technology and multicore technology (with the dual-core Intel Atom processor D510)
Low-power design with Eurotech microcontroller-based power management system
Supports Windows CE, Windows Embedded Standard and Wind River Linux 3.0 operating systems

Eurotech says, with a common footprint, the Catalyst LP system is easily scalable and allows existing Catalyst Module customers to migrate to the new Intel Atom processors N450, D410, or D510 with minimal effort. The system also offers extensive I/O capabilities with the Intel 82801HM I/O Controller.

"At Eurotech we align our product development concurrent with processor availability, making the latest technology accessible to progressive OEM customers," said Hilary Tomasson, vice president of marketing for Eurotech Inc. "Eurotech offers a seamless migration pattern for customers ready to take advantage of the new Intel Atom processors immediately in our Catalyst form factor. The Catalyst LP system from Eurotech offers OEMs easy application development options in both single core and dual core configurations."

Availability: From first quarter of 2010
