VersaLogic Bobcat 586 Class PC/104-Plus Single Board Computer

The VersaLogic Bobcat single board computer is designed for projects requiring low cost, compact size, high reliability, and long product life span/availability. It can be used alone as an Ethernet node processor card, or with a plug-in video module in applications requiring a video display.

The Bobcat features the 133MHz AMD Elan SC520 586 Class CPU and is VersaLogic's most popular PC/104-Plus Single Board Computer solution.

The Bobcat is a complete computer system on a single PC/104-Plus sized board. It may be used alone or with a wide variety of PC/104 and PC/104-Plus expansion modules.

The board includes 64 MB of low power system SDRAM which is soldered in place to increase reliability in hostile environments. It also supports bootable DiskOnChip Flash chips to allow program and data file storage without mechanical disk drives.

The high reliability features of the Bobcat include watchdog timer, voltage sensing reset circuit, industrial long-life battery, and self-resetting fuse on the 5V supply to the keyboard and mouse.

This exceptional processor card was designed from the ground up for OEM applications with longevity and reliability as the focus. It is fully supported by the VersaLogic application team. Both hardware and software (BIOS) customization are available in 100 unit quantities. Each board is subjected to burn-in and complete functional testing.

The Bobcat is compatible with a wide selection of popular operating systems including most Windows and Real Time OS's. It ships with General Software's Embedded BIOS® 2000 and is fully compatible with Managed PC Boot Agent (MBA) from Argon Technology Corp to provide added network boot capability. A Board Support package (BSP) is also available for Wind River Systems' VxWorks.
