Product Description
The CoreModule 730 SBC is an exceptionally high integration, x86-based, PC compatible system in the
ISM (Industry Standard Module) form factor. This rugged and high quality single-board system contains all
the component subsystems of a PC/AT motherboard plus the equivalent of several PC/AT expansion boards.
The CoreModule 730 includes a comprehensive set of system extensions and enhancements that are
specifically designed for embedded systems. These enhancements ensure fail-safe embedded system
operation, such as a watchdog timer and a temperature monitor. This design meets the size, power
consumption, temperature range, quality, and reliability demands of embedded applications and requires
only a single +5V power source.
Embedded and portable applications benefit from the flexibility of the CoreModule 730, making system
design quick and easy. The CoreModule 730 stacks with ADLINK MiniModule products or other SUMIT-
compliant expansion boards or it can serve as the computing engine in a fully customized application.
