VersaLogic announces FireWire expansion module for Mini PCIe sockets


Tualatin, OR — January 26, 2016
VersaLogic, the embedded industry's most trusted computer company, today announced the FW1, a new FireWire Mini PCIe expansion module for embedded computer systems.  The rugged module provides a simple, standardised way to add 2 channels of 1394 FireWire to most embedded computing systems.  It provides one FireWire 800 (1394b) and one FireWire 400 (1394a) channel and features operation over the full industrial temperature range (-40° to +85°C).

The FW1’s extremely small Mini PCIe format allows it to be added to a board with very little impact to the overall size of the system.  The FW1 is compatible with a variety of popular x86 operating systems including Windows, Windows Embedded, and Linux using standard software drivers.

“FireWire continues to be an important interface, especially in imaging applications. The FW1 module offers an excellent solution for adding both FireWire 800 and FireWire 400 to existing embedded processor boards,” said Kerry Howell, VersaLogic Product Manager. “The FW1 is the newest member of VersaLogic’s growing portfolio of Mini PCIe modules, and demonstrates VersaLogic’s ongoing commitment to providing customers with rugged I/O expansion options.”

Designed, Manufactured and Tested for Extreme Environments
The FW1 module is designed and tested for industrial temperature (-40º to +85ºC) operation and meets MIL-STD-202G specifications to withstand high impact and vibration.  A latching connector on the FireWire 400 channel provides additional protection within harsh environments.

Additional Product Information
This product is RoHS compliant, and includes VersaLogic's 5+ year production life guarantee. The FW1 is customisable, even in low OEM quantities. Customization options include conformal coating, revision locks, custom labeling, customized testing and screening, etc.

Pricing and Availability
The VL-MPEe-FW1E is available from stock. Pricing is $107 in OEM quantities.
