RABBITCORE
RCM4200 SERIES
®
The RCM4200 series of core modules are pin-compatible and
easily interchangeable with other RCM4XXX based products.
The RCM4200 acts as the microprocessor of an embedded
system and is designed to mount directly to a user-supplied
motherboard, allowing CMOS-compatible digital devices to
interface with the motherboard.
The RCM4200 offers robust features including large
memory and Fast Ethernet, making it ideal for intensive
Device intelligence and Fast Ethernet connectivity for
data logging and serial to Ethernet applications
communications and data-logging applications. The optional
analog helps to diversify your connectivity options.
Evaluation of the RCM4200 is easy with the RabbitCore
RCM4200 development kit, which provides all the necessary
hardware and software to quickly get started.
