The TS-7670 is a small Arm®-based SBC that is designed to provide extreme performance for applications which demand high reliability, fast bootup/startup, and connectivity at low cost and low power, such as fleet vehicle or asset tracking, point-of-sales (PoS), vending machines, data acquisition units, data recorder modules, etc. Additional TS-7670 specifications include:
- Full Industrial temperature range
- 2 GB soldered down eMMC SLC Flash
- Data redundancy via dual removable SD cards
- Temperature compensated RTC with less than ±5 ppm clock drift
- CPU speed can be adjusted on the fly between 454 MHz to 261 MHz
- 1x USB serial device for console
- Multi-constellation GPS Radio
- Low Power Sleep Mode (< 10 mW)
- 0.60 W Idle, 1.30 W Load
- 8--28 VDC Power Supply Input
- -40 °C to 85 °C Industrial Temps
The TS-7670 ships with Linux kernel version 4.9 and Debian Wheezy preinstalled. Linux 5.10 kernel is available, as well as newer Debian distributions and Buildroot support. Other software features include:
- Sleep mode requiring around 10 mW of power, with the ability to wake up after an arbitrary timeout with a 1 s resolution or at the press of the reset button
- Standby mode which consumes 180 mW, and can wake and resume execution in as little as 250 ms
- Boot time from power on to BusyBox shell is 4.5 s from SD card and 5.8 s from flash storage
