VersaLogic Releases 'Raven' - Embedded SFF Computer based on Intel Bay Trail Processor


The team at VersaLogic has just announced the release of the Raven - a compact and rugged embedded x86 computer built around the Intel Bay Trail processor.

See Raven datasheet (pdf)

This is VersaLogic's fourth product released in the Embedded Processing Unit (EPU) format. EPU's combine processor, memory, video, and system I/O into an extremely compact full function embedded computer.

The Raven, equipped with an Intel Atom 38xx processor, is designed to withstand extreme temperature, impact, and vibration. It has been engineered and tested to meet the military and medical industries' evolving requirements to develop smaller, lighter, and lower power embedded systems while adhering to stringent regulatory standards.

Available in single-, dual-, and quad-core versions, the Raven provides great performance and I/O features, moderate power consumption (6 to 8W typical depending on model), and a compact package. The Raven provides compatibility with a broad range of standard x86 application development tools for reduced development time.

  1. The VersaLogic released their new Embedded SFF Computer, it will be called as “Raven” and this is based on Intel Bay Trail Processor. Intel Bay Trail is the code name for a line of Atom processors made by Intel. Bay Trail chips are faster and thinner than their predecessors and run the Ivy Bridge (code name for Intel’s third generation of Core processors) graphics processing unit (GPU) to improve processing capabilities. This processor is new for Raven that makes this industrial computer system more powerful. The Raven is the fourth product of VersaLogic that they released in the Embedded Processing Unit (EPU) format that has a combined processor, memory, video, and system I/O to become a powerful compact fully functional embedded computer. This device is equipped with Intel Atom 38xx processor to make the system faster. This is invented to survive in extreme temperature, impact and vibration to ensure the device in any harm and protect it well. Thanks for sharing this info.
