IoT

One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec

At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.

Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.

Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

VME

CONTINUED VME PLATFORM ADVANCEMENTS

VME remains a strong solution for a wide variety of tech refresh programs. Applications range from command and control systems to high performance signal-processing radar, sonar and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) applications. Keeping VME relevant for these applications requires ongoing advancements to achieve processor migration, extending I/O capabilities on the backplane, and supporting higher bandwidth applications.

Understanding its value and proven place in hundreds of defense programs, Kontron will continue its investment in evolving a fully-featured VME product line.

PROCESSOR MIGRATION

Kontron’s currently available 6U VME SBCs allow a single design to be used with old and new software stacks with the same system building blocks (i.e., identical mezzanine carrier, rear transition modules and front panel I/O layout). Creating systems that span different CPU architectures helps to reduce risk and development time, streamline the process for upgrading existing VME systems and significantly reduce the cost of maintaining multiple versions of the system at the same time.

FUTURE-PROOFING WITH FPGA TECHNOLOGY

Over the past 15 years, Kontron has deployed many thousands of boards using its own FPGA-based VME interface controller known as ALMA, eliminating the fear of interface chip obsolescence and ensuring its VME customers are not affected by EOL worries.
