Specifications

The VersaLogic Cobra features an Intel Pentium M or ULV Celeron M processor and 855GME chipset to provide main processing, device support, and analog or flat panel video output. The system is complemented by a wide array of I/O devices for communication with peripherals, networked systems, and specialized devices. On-board I/O includes two Gigabit or 10/100 Ethernet ports, four USB 2.0 ports, RS-232 and RS-422/485 COM ports, CompactFlash socket, LPT port, digital I/O ports, counter/timers, and optional A/D converter. The PC/104-Plus expansion site can accept a wide variety of PC/104 and PC/104-Plus I/O modules for additional expansion when needed.

The Cobra also provides durability and reliability through features like latching I/O connectors, a programmable CPU temperature sensor, voltage-sensing reset circuit, watchdog timer, and long-life industrial battery. TVS (Transient Voltage Suppression) devices on the primary system I/O connections help protect the system from ESD (electrostatic discharge) damage. A self-resetting fuse on the 5V power to the keyboard, mouse, and USB ports protects the board from cable or connector shorts.
