1.2 Advantages of the RCM4000

•Fast time to market using a fully engineered, “ready-to-run/ready-to-program” micro- processor core.

•Competitive pricing when compared with the alternative of purchasing and assembling individual components.

•Easy C-language program development and debugging

•Rabbit Field Utility to download compiled Dynamic C .bin files, and cloning board options for rapid production loading of programs.

•Generous memory size allows large programs with tens of thousands of lines of code, and substantial data storage.
