Hawk Embedded Processing Unit

VersaLogic introduces the Hawk, an extremely small, rugged, embedded computer. This next generation of the VersaLogic Embedded Processing Unit (EPU) format combines processor, memory, video, and system I/O into an extremely compact full-function embedded computer. Driven by the low-power Intel® 22 nm Silvermont microarchitecture, the Hawk provides up to 1.9 GHz of performance with quad-, dual-, and single-core processor options. The computer has a footprint the size of a credit card! It combines the new 4th generation Intel®Atom™ “Bay Trail” processor, with system interfaces in a form factor designed to withstand extreme temperature, impact, and vibration.

Hawk’s I/O connectivity includes a Gigabit Ethernet port with network boot capability, four USB 2.0 ports, two serial ports, and Intel High-Definition Audio (HDA). A SATA 3 Gbits/s interface supports high-capacity rotating or solid-state drives. A Mini PCIe socket with mSATA, a microSD socket, and on-board eMMC (on some models) provide flexible solid-state drive (SSD) options. Systems can be enhanced by leveraging the Mini PCIe socket with plug-in Wi-Fi modems, GPS receivers, MIL-STD-1553, Ethernet, Firewire, and other mini cards.

As with all VersaLogic products, the Hawk is designed to support OEM applications where high reliability and long-term availability are required. From application design-in support, to its 5+ year production life guarantee, the Hawk provides a durable embedded computer solution with an excellent cost of ownership.
