CENGPXA270-416-11-505EXR

Overview

The Beacon EmbeddedWorks CENGPXA270-416-11-505EXR is a System on Module (SOM) based on the Marvell PXA270 processor running at 416 MHz. It features 64 MB of SDRAM and 64 MB of NOR flash memory. The module includes an integrated AC97 audio codec, a 4-wire touch screen controller, and a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet controller. Designed for industrial environments, it operates within an extended temperature range of -25 °C to 85 °C. The compact form factor measures 60.2 mm x 67.8 mm x 4.4 mm.

Feature Summary

• Marvell PXA270 processor operating at 416 MHz
• 64 MB SDRAM and 64 MB NOR flash memory
• Integrated AC97 audio codec and 4-wire touch screen controller
• Extended temperature operation from -25 °C to 85 °C

Applications

• Medical monitoring and imaging systems
• Point-of-sale terminals and barcode readers
• Industrial control applications
• Security systems including CCTV cameras and intruder alarms

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm hardware configuration details. Ensure that the required software Board Support Packages (BSPs), such as Windows Embedded CE 5.0, are available for integration. Confirm mechanical compatibility with custom baseboards utilizing the standard expansion connector pin-out.

Selection Notes

Select this model for designs requiring the 416 MHz processing speed and extended temperature range (-25 °C to 85 °C). Choose this variant over the HXR version if the integrated touch screen controller is not required. Verify that the 64 MB NOR flash capacity meets storage requirements, as NAND flash is not included in this specific configuration.

Part Context

This component belongs to the PXA270 Card Engine family produced by Logic PD, now part of Beacon EmbeddedWorks. It serves as a product-ready foundation for OEMs developing handheld and embedded networking products. The module allows for scalability to next-generation microprocessors through common reference pin-outs on its expansion connectors.

Replacement Considerations

The SDK-PXA270-520-10-6432R kit contains the CENGPXA270-520-10-504HCR SOM. For direct replacements, consider other models within the PXA270 series, such as the CENGPXA270-416-11-505HXR, noting differences in temperature rating and peripheral inclusion.
