EVA-C210 ARM/XScale Based Companion Chip for Multi-I/O Interface and ARM-to-PCI Bridge

Advantech, the global ePlatform services provider, has phased in its first Companion Chip, the EVA-C210.

This companion chip provides SoC solutions with excellent performance combined with hardware and software integration ease.

Currently, Advantech has two SOM platforms, the SOM-A2558 and SOM-A255F, both equipped with the EVA-C210 for more I/O intensive functionality.

EVA-C210 is a highly-integrated, ARM-to-PCI companion chip to the Intel XScale and ARM based processors.

Besides the universal PCI Bus Rev.

2.2, it integrates a variety of functions including PS/2, I2C, UARTs (RS-232/485), USB Host 1.1, RTC, 32-bit GPIO, Ethernet 10/100 MAC, and is suitable for use in high-performance RISC systems.

EVA-C210 provides a cost-effective solution for applications in networking and embedded devices.

EVA-C210 comes ported with both Windows CE.NET and Linux drivers.

By doing this, Advantech provides a complete hardware and software solution.

Customers can also leverage Advantech's Development Kits with hardware and easy-to-use software, designed to shorten their design cycle and improve time-to-market response.

With its highly integrated functions, EVA-C210 expands XScale family's capabilities and utilities, adds value for customers, and is a convenient, flexible and powerful solution for RISC systems.

Advantech will keep building complete and comprehensive SoC silicon platforms, helping customers strengthen their competence, gain market share and improve solutions to their customers.
