DC-ME-Y402-S

Overview

The Digi DC-ME-Y402-S is a System-on-Module (SOM) based on the NS9210 processor, operating at a frequency of 75 MHz. It integrates 8 MB of SDRAM and 4 MB of flash memory. The module supports Ethernet, GPIO, I2C, SPI, and UART interfaces. It functions within an industrial temperature range from -40°C to +80°C. This specific variant includes Plug and Play software with a Unique Password (SB-327). The product lifecycle status is End-of-Life, indicating it is obsolete and subject to discontinuation by the manufacturer.

Feature Summary

• NS9210 processor running at 75 MHz
• 8 MB SDRAM and 4 MB Flash memory configuration
• Supports Ethernet, GPIO, I2C, SPI, and UART interfaces
• Includes Plug and Play software with Unique Password (SB-327)

Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring robust connectivity
• Embedded applications utilizing Linux operating environments
• Remote monitoring devices in harsh environmental conditions

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to End-of-Life status. Confirm that the SB-327 unique password requirement aligns with project security protocols. Check for available stock from secondary distributors as primary supply is discontinued. Ensure compatibility with existing carrier boards supporting the Connect ME form factor before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when 8 MB SDRAM and 4 MB Flash are sufficient for the target embedded workload. Consider the -40°C to +80°C operating range for industrial deployment. Verify interface requirements match the available Ethernet, GPIO, I2C, SPI, and UART connections. Note that alternative variants like DC-ME-Y402-NC lack the specific Plug and Play software feature included here.

Part Context

This module belongs to the Digi Connect ME family, designed for compact embedded computing. It utilizes the NS9210 processor architecture optimized for low-power industrial applications. The SOM design allows for easy integration into custom carrier boards, reducing development time for networked devices requiring reliable serial and Ethernet communication capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed. Evaluate newer Digi Connect ME series modules or alternative SOMs with similar NS9210 specifications. Assess pinout compatibility if migrating to different form factors. Review updated software support availability for legacy processors.
