Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
Nuvo-2500 Series is a series of industrial fanless computers equipped with Intel® Bay Trail
Processors for different applications. Powered by the quad-core Bay Trail processor,
Nuvo-2500 Series shows outstanding computing power and is even more power efficient
compared to those with its predecessors. Nuvo-2500 Series supports dual Independent
display, dual storage for isolating system and data, 2x Gigabit Ethernet ports, 4x COM ports
and 4x USB ports.
Nuvo-2500 Series provides many models for different applications. Nuvo-2500 is for
light-weight general embedded application which requires one PCI or PCIe slot for a 3rd
party add-on card. Nuvo-2510VTC provides no PCI and PCIe slot and is quite compact.
This makes Nuvo-2510VTC suitable for general embedded application where installation
space is limited. Besides, Nuvo-2510VTC has a CAN Bus port and 2 built-in PoE+ ports
and is also ideal for mobile surveillance applications.
Nuvis-2520at is one another model of Nuvo-2500 Series. Nuvis-2520at equips with 2 PoE+
ports, DTIO and 1 built-in constant current/voltage power supply, which directly drives a
LED lighting device. DTIO is a set of MCU-controlled I/O which reacts autonomously
according to a pre-defined rule. Strobe control can easily be realized by DTIO without any
CPU effort. The combination of these unique features makes Nuvis-2520at proper for
industrial automation and machine vision applications.
