M-502, an ARM9 Linux-based SoM

Artila Electronics, a designer and manufacturer of Linux-ready ARM9 industrial PCs, has launched the M-502, an ARM9 Linux-based System on Module (SoM) featuring a large memory and high scalability.

M-502 is powered by a 400MHZ ARM926EJ-S ARM thumb processor, equipped with memory management unit, 64MB SDRAM, 128MB NAND Flash and 2MB DATAFlash.

The device is pre-installed with Linux 2.6.29 OS, busybox utility collection, lighttpd web server and various hardware device drivers.

M-502 also provides flexibility in peripheral expansion by integrating one 10/100Mbps ethernet, two USB 2.0 hosts, four UARTs with hardware/software flow control and 32 programmable digital I/Os.

In addition, M-502 comes with Secure Data Card (SD) interface, Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), Inter-IC (I2C) bus, Inter-IC Sound (I2S) bus, and 8-bit local bus.

The GNU C/C++ cross compiler is included in the development kit, allowing users to develop their application software on the PC without the need to learn and purchase an extra commercial developing tool.

Artila M-502 Linux-based ARM9 System on Module combines powerful computing capabilities, large memory space and high scalability that, according to the manufacturer, reduces 80 per cent of the development time and cost normally required.
