AD7011-EVA A Linux computer powered by an ARM11 core
- Optimized for MATLAB/Simulink target machines
- Comes with a software tool for easy creation of control console screens and graphical user interfaces (GUI)
- Runs a Linux OS with a real-time extension (Xenomai), which is essential for measurement and control
Introduction video (1.5Mbps 33.47MB), (250Kbps 8,7MB)
The AD7011-EVA is a Linux computer with diversified array of inputs and outputs,
including ADC (Analog-Digital-Converter) and DAC (Digital-Analog-Converter),
which are necessary for measurement and control.
You can make control programs using Mathworks MATLAB/Simulink or
C-language (Eclipse) and create GUIs and console screens by drag-and-drop with
A&D's AD-VirtualConsole (bundled software). You perform a series of operations
on a Windows PC and then transfer your work to the AD7011-EVA.
The AD7011-EVA includes S-function programs (driver software) for all equipped
input-output interfaces as standard so you can get to work quickly.
The AD7011-EVA is a very reasonably priced product for actual device
validation tests and control as a target machine of MATLAB/Simulink, a modelbased
development tool that has received much attention recently.
The AD7011-EVA equipped with an i.MX31 with an ARM1136 core processor,
a Linux OS with a real-time extension (Xenomai) and a ZigBee module (option)
for wireless communication.
