ESM SuperMicro

BitBox has designed an ESM 'SuperMicro' board to complement the ESM-1 data logger. The ESM SuperMicro consumes less power and has a slightly reduced feature set, but offers script compatibility with the ESM-1 plus.

Network audio playback system

BitBox has designed and manufactured a network audio playback system. The unit plays two independet stereo channels of audio from a selection of compressed MP3 files on a hard disk. The music selection and content is managed remotely over modem, ISDN or 100MBit ethernet. More...

The unit is manufactured exclusively for Creative Retail Entertainment

Separate ARM designs are avaialble directly from BitBox.

Marine data logger deployed in China

EnviroTech has successfully installed two U-Tow marine data loggers on Chinese research vessels. These towed vehicles use two ESM-1 controller boards designed and supplied by BitBox

The elevator fins are driven by intelligent stepper motor drives attached to the unique serial peripheral system (SPS) of the ESM-1.

BitBox modified the shipboard EnviroTech software to work with the ESM-1 controllers over a 600 metre cable.

BitBox Develops ESM-1 for EcoLAB

EnviroTech has launched the EcoLAB, a new generation in-situ chemical analyzers for marine and freshwater applications. These analyzers use ESM-1 controller boards designed and supplied by BitBox

Each EcoLAB uses two intelligent stepper motor drivers attached to the the SPS system of the ESM-1.

Listening posts installed in HMV

BitBox has completed a contract to design, develop and manufacture a significant number of CD player based listening posts for EMP

EMP have installed the listening posts in HMV outlets all over the country.

Networked listening posts use Linux server

BitBox has completed a contract for Creative Retail Entertainment to develop and manufacture a listening post system based around the storage of music files in encrypted MP3 format on a networked server.

The system is designed such that 64 listening posts can simultaneously play different music selections from one Linux server. The number of CDs that can be stored is limited only by the hard disk capacity of the server.

Digital/TTL to RS232 level shifter

Digital/TTL to RS232 level shifter

A very simple device for shifting serial signals at digital/TTL levels to RS232. Works on 3V to 5V supplies and logic levels. 9 pin DCE and DTE connector. There are Tx and Rx indicator LEDs.

This is one of those devices that everyone needs at some stage during embedded systems development!

USB JTAG interface lead

USB JTAG

Tagger is a USB device that connects a PC to a JTAG interface. Data throughput is a respectable 800KBits/second (many times faster than a parallel port). Works with targets of 3 to 5V.

Software interface is through a low level driver. Sample code exists to demonstrate the in-circuit programming of Flash devices directly connected to an Intel StrongARM and an AMD Alchemy (AU1000, 1100, 1500). Sample code also exists to program a small selection of PLDs.
