Chipsee, distributed in Italy by Consystem, presents an interesting CE marked PanelPC/Indutrial PC solution: the EPC-A7-70HB-C, an embedded PC equipped with a 7″ capacitive touch screen LCD display, ARM Cortex-A7 processor with 512 MB of DDR3 RAM and 8 GB of eMMC flash, 100 Mb of Ethernet, 2 USB 2.0 ports, 2 CAN ports, 2 RS232 ports, 3 RS485 ports and a 3.5 mm audio connector.
All this with a power consumption of 5 W and ultra-compact dimensions (190 × 112 × 28 mm) and very light, only 340 grams!

Processor

The EPC-A7-70HB-C features the iMX6UL ARM Cortex-A7 processor, a high-performance, ultra-efficient processor family with an advanced implementation of a single Arm Cortex-A7 core, operating at speeds up to 696 MHz.
The i.MX 6UltraLite application processor includes an integrated power management module that reduces external power supply complexity and simplifies power sequencing.

Touch screen display

The EPC-A7-70HB-C has a 7" 5-point capacitive touch screen with a resolution of 1024×600, offering stable and accurate control over the device. The HMI connector on the back of the panel allows the device to work in a dual monitor configuration.
The capacitive touch screens offer great image clarity. They are also very durable and resistant to environmental contaminants such as dust and water. These types of screens work best with a stylus with a conductive tip or simply with a finger.

Connections and audio

The EPC-A7-70HB-C has several expansion connectors on the back: 2 USB 2.0 connectors, 1 LAN connector, 2 CAN connectors, 3 RS485 connectors and 2 RS232 connectors. It also has a 3.5 mm audio connector and a TF card slot. The WiFi/Bluetooth module is optional.
The CAN, RS485, RS232 connector is a 12-pin 3.81 mm screw terminal connector. The RS232 and RS485 port speed is up to 115200 Baud. The EPC-A7-70HB-C has a 100Mb Ethernet port and a TF card (uSD) connector. This device supports a TF card up to 32 GB.
On the aufio side, the device has a 3.5 mm input/output connector and a 2 W internal speaker.

Operating System and Software

The EPC-A7-70HB-C supports the following operating systems: Chipsee Linux (based on the integrated NXP Yocto framework) 5.5 or Debian 8.10.
If your project requires an operating system other than those available, you can request a custom version to suit your needs.

Applications

The EPC-A7-70HB-C is ideal for industrial IoT and embedded applications.
