Hardware Features
The EPC-A9-070-C has several expansion connectors on the back side – 3 USB 2.0, 1 USB OTG, 1 LAN, 2 CAN, 2 RS485, and 2 RS232. It also features a WiFi and Bluetooth antenna, an HDMI port, and a 3.5mm audio connector.
The CAN, RS485, and RS232 connector is a 16 Pin 3.81mm screw terminal connector (as you can see from the image).
Since this display has 5 UART channels, they can be configured as RS232 or RS485. One UART channel is used by Bluetooth – the default setting is 2x RS232 + 2x RS485 + Bluetooth. Please contact us if you require a different configuration.
The RS232 and the RS485 port speed is up to 115200 Baud.
The EPC-A9-070-C has one channel 1Gb Ethernet port and one HDMI port which can be configured by software. The maximum resolution supported on the
external HDMI monitor is 1920×1080 at 60Hz.
When it comes to audio capabilities, the EPC-A9-070-C has one 3.5mm Output/input connector and a 2W internal speaker.
The EPC-A9-070-C uses a wide range of power input: DC 6~36V. The typical power consumption is 6W.
The EPC-A9-070-C features a 7’’ display with a 1024×600 pixel resolution, and a 5-point capacitive touch screen. 5-point capacitive touchscreens offer stable and accurate control over the device, as well as great image clarity.
The screen offers a brightness of 500 nits. Regarding the viewing angle, the screen offers various angles: top, bottom, left, and right view.
Performances and reliability
At the core of each Chipsee product lies a SOM (System-on-Module). All our products share the same core. This System-on-Module makes it possible to integrate a whole computer into a device, significantly simplifying the customization of the product. It makes your application easily upgradable – without needing to rewrite a single line of code your application is upgraded.
This product features the .iMX 6 series of application processors, the CS-SOM-iMX6Q.
The .iMX6Q Quad processor represents the latest achievement in integrated multimedia applications processors. They feature advanced implementation of the quad Arm® Cortex®-A9 core, which operates at speeds up to 1.2 GHz. They include 2D and 3D graphics processors, 1080p video processing, and integrated power management. Each processor provides a 64-bit DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR2 memory interface and a number of other interfaces for connecting peripherals, such as WLAN, Bluetooth®, GPS, hard drive, displays, and camera sensors.
