Adlink / Ampro Computers 3SX2-16174 PC104 Module Description

Functions

Designed to operate as a high-performance embedded computing module within a PC/104 hardware platform, this module provides processing capabilities for real-time data acquisition, signal processing, and control applications. It interfaces with other PC/104 stackable modules through standardized bus connectors, supporting low-latency, high-bandwidth communication. Commonly utilized in industrial automation, military, aerospace, and ruggedized IoT systems, it facilitates integration with sensors, actuators, and communication peripherals for complex embedded system deployments.

Platforms

Designed as a PC/104 16-bit embedded module, this board operates within rugged, compact PC/104 stackable systems conforming to PC/104 specification version 2.6. It interfaces via a low-profile, high-reliability ISA bus connector standardized for 8-bit and 16-bit signals, supporting continuous 1A per pin and operating across -55°C to +85°C. Typically integrated in industrial, military, or transportation embedded computing platforms for fanless, shock- and vibration-resistant applications requiring high reliability and compact modular expansion.

Applications

Real-time data acquisition and control in embedded systems including industrial automation, robotics control, military and aerospace avionics, medical device monitoring, transportation systems, and rugged computing environments where compact form factor and reliable operation under extreme temperatures and vibrations are required. Supports sensor interfacing, signal processing, communication protocols, and deterministic processing tasks in space-constrained embedded applications requiring PC-compatible architecture with stackable expansion capabilities.

Accessories

Requires PC/104 or PC/104-Plus backplane or chassis for operation. Interfaces include one 16-bit ISA PC/104 stackthrough connector with 64 pins, 0.100-inch pitch, two rows, used for power and ISA bus signals. Also features standard pin headers for serial, parallel, and digital I/O, typically 2.54 mm pitch. Designed for embedded computing with stackable modular connections.

Interfaces

Single PC/104 module interface with 8-bit and 16-bit ISA bus connectors conforming to PC/104 Standard Revision 2.6; connectors are 64-pin dual-row card-edge type with gold-flashed male pins mating to female sockets; mechanical specifications include high temp thermoplastic housing, phosphor bronze contacts with 15 microinches minimum hard gold plating on female interface and gold flash on male; electrical characteristics support 1 Amp continuous current per pin, contact resistance under 30 milliohms, and insulation resistance above 5,000 megohms; operating temperature range from -55°C to +85°C. No additional interfaces or expansions documented for this model.

Specifications

A 386SX-25MHz single-board computer module designed for the PC/104 embedded platform. It provides core processing functions with up to 4MB DRAM. The module interfaces with other equipment via the 104-pin ISA-based PC/104 stacking bus for expansion. On-board headers support connections to IDE and floppy drives, two RS-232 serial ports, a parallel port, and keyboard/mouse. Common applications include industrial automation, data acquisition systems, and embedded control where a compact, stackable x86 architecture is required.
