UC-7110 Series User’s Manual

Introduction

Overview

The UC-7110 Series of RISC-based Communication Platforms are ideal for your embedded applications. UC-7110 comes with two RS-232/422/485 serial ports and dual 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN ports to provide users with a versatile communication platform.

UC-7110 uses the ARM9 166 Mhz RISC CPU. Unlike the X86 CPU, which uses a CISC design, the ARM9’s RISC design architecture and modern semiconductor technology provide UC-7110 with a powerful computing engine and communication functions, but without generating too much heat. The built-in 8 MB NOR Flash ROM and 16 MB SDRAM give you enough storage capacity to run applications on UC-7110. The dual LAN ports built into the ARM9 make UC-7110 an ideal communication platform for some of the more simple data acquisition and protocol conversion applications, and the two RS-232/422/485 serial ports allow you to connect a variety of different types of serial device.

The pre-installed µClinux operating system provides an open software operating system for software program development. This means that software written for desktop PCs is easily ported to UC-7110 by using a GNU cross complier, so that you will not need to spend time modifying existing software code. The Operating System, device drivers, and your own software can all be stored in UC-7110’s Flash memory.
