Overview
VIA ARTiGO A630 Enterprise IoT Gateway System
The VIA ARTiGO A630 is an ultra-slim fanless enterprise IoT gateway system featuring a rich I/O feature set and robust networking connectivity, including optional high-speed wireless networking modules, to enable flexible integration with the enterprise network and the cloud.
Hardware
Powered by a 1.0GHz VIA ARM Cortex-A9 dual-core SoC, the VIA ARTiGO A630 features a high-performance 2D/3D graphics and video engine that supports Open® GL ES 2.0 hardware acceleration and comes with an on-board Micro SD card slot, 4GB eMMC Flash memory, and 1GB DDR3 SDRAM.
Measuring just 154.4mm x 27mm x 106.7mm (W x H x D), the VIA ARTiGO A630 offers a rich array of I/O and display expansion options, including one HDMI port, one RS-232/485 COM port, one DIO port with support for 8-bit GPIO, two USB 2.0 ports, one micro USB 2.0 port, one 10/100Mbps Ethernet port, and one miniPCIe slot. Optional Wi-Fi and 3G wireless modules are also available which can be supported through on-board USB pin-headers or the miniPCIe slot.
Software
The ARTiGO A630 features an optimized Android 5.0 BSP or Linux BSP (Kernel 3.4.5) supporting all key onboard hardware features to speed development, deployment and ease system management.
The ARTiGO A630 Android 5.0 BSP also includes the VIA Smart ETK comprising a number of APIs, including Watchdog Timer (WDT) for safeguarding against system crashes, GPIO access, COM port access, and a sample app.
A full set of software customization services that speed up time to market and minimize development costs is also available.
Applications
Featuring a high-performance SoC, rich network connectivity options, and extensive I/O options the VIA ARTiGO A630 provides an ideal IoT gateway system to manage the connection and control for a wide spectrum of connected HMI and industrial automation applications.
