Unit real-time target machine

A small, lightweight and rugged computer offering multiple I/O options.

The Unit real-time target machine is expressly designed to run and automate testing of real-time applications created from Simulink®.  Sample rates above 20kHz are achievable with the IO397 Simulink-programmable FPGA I/O module option.

The Unit real-time target machine features a quad-core 1.6 GHz Intel® Atom® processor, a 2.5” SSD for data logging and two on-board GbE ports for host-target and other Ethernet-based communications including Real-Time UDP, XCP, TCP/IP, PTP IEEE1588, and EtherCAT Master.

For I/O expansion, see the full list of supported I/O modules. This target machine can support an extended temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

Unit real-time target machine

Featuring one I/O expansion slot, this target machine can be expanded with one of a range of Speedgoat I/O modules to support:
