RCM3700 SERIES
®
The RabbitCore RCM3700 series extends beyond standard
serial to Ethernet devices by providing up to six serial ports
along with a rich embedded I/O control feature set such as
PWM and Quadrature Decoder Inputs. Additionally, the
modules include a backup battery for protected data storage
and for the real-time clock.
The software environment for the RCM3700 series offers an
excellent platform for developing applications with web server
capabilities, especially for remote monitoring and control.
With a 1 MB on-board serial Flash, the RCM3700 series can
store additional web pages or be used as a datalogger.
Family of compact modules comes in three versions with varying memory
sizes, providing a cost-competitive multi-serial to Ethernet solution
The RCM3700 easily mounts onto a user-designed
motherboard, making it ideal for new and existing
applications. With an integrated hardware and software
solution, the RCM3700 series ensures your product gets to
market faster with lower development costs.
BENEFITS

SOFTWARE
The Dynamic C® integrated development environment reduces
the time and effort to write real-time software for embedded
systems that use a Rabbit microprocessor, enabling easy
development of a wide range of applications.
Rabbit products and Dynamic C integrate editing, compiling,
linking, loading and debugging into a single development
environment as one function. There are no compatibility
issues when moving from one stage to another. Once the
design is complete, you can debug it on the target hardware
and see how your code works. Because it is a dialect of C, the
Dynamic C language has all the statements and constructions
of traditional C, plus extensions that make it easier to write
reliable, real-time multi-tasking software. The Dynamic C
integrated development environment allows for easy hardware
migration, moving from a single-board computer to chip level
production.
Dynamic C also includes highly useful software components
that can add functionality and value to your applications. This
functionality includes web server capability, filing system,
remote firmware updates, and wired and wireless security.
Compatible software components are listed below.
