Introduction

Overview

The MOXA UC-7400 Series (herein after referred to as UC-7400) includes UC-7420, UC-7410, UC-7408, and UC-7402. These RISC-based ready-to-run embedded computers are ideal for embedded applications. UC-7400 series feature 8 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, dual 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, 8 digital input channels and 8 digital output channels, a PCMCIA interface for wireless LAN communication, a CompactFlash slot for flash disk expansion, and USB ports for adding additional memory (such as a USB Flash disk).

The UC-7400 series use an Intel XScale IXP-422 266 MHz RISC CPU. Unlike the X86 CPU, which uses a CISC design, the IXP-422’s RISC design architecture and modern semiconductor technology provide UC-7400 with a powerful computing engine and communication functions, but without generating a lot of heat. The built-in 32 MB NOR Flash ROM and 128 MB SDRAM give you enough memory to run your application software directly on UC-7400. As the dual LAN ports are built right into the IXP-422 CPU, UC-7400 makes an ideal communication platform for Network Security applications. If your application requires placing UC-7400 at a site that is not located near an Ethernet LAN connection, you can connect to the network by using UC-7400’s PCMCIA port to attach a wireless LAN card.
