CPU Boards

Generally all motherboards based on the x86 architecture can be used with Linux. Some boards are especially convenient for embedded systems. Besides the x86 family Linux supports a variety of other plattforms which are listed in the ports page.


Multi Architecture



Techsol

Techsol manufactures and sells ARM, Xscale and PowerPC based CPU Modules. Development kits are also available for these Medallion CPU modules.


ARM



Sunsrise Systems

Credit-card size StrongARM single board computer (SBC) with Linux and eCos support. It provides an array of onboard peripherals including serial I/O, I2C, USB and a user-programmable FPGA for virtual I/O. The power consumption is less then 400 mW and it comes with SRAM, EEPROM, Flash and SD-RAM memory in different configurations.



Axotec Phoenix

A chipcard sized modular computer, based on ARM. It has up to 64 MB flash, 64 MB SDRAM and a variety of interfaces, including ethernet. The bus is completely available on the connectors. Less than 380 mW are required. The module is preinstalled with a 2.4 Linux kernel.



Metaflow

This company develops customer specific Systems on Chip with Linux support. You have the choice between an ARM and SPARC cores.



PLEB

A former university project which wants to develop an ARM based board. At the moment no final product to be seen.



LART

ARM based Embedded Linux Board developed by the University of Delft. Schematics are available for free, you can built up your own boards. LART was especially devleoped for high performance (more than 200 MIPS) with low power (less than 1 W). The project can be discussed on a mailing list.



Bright Star Engineering

The company sells a variety of ARM based boards.



Feather

ARM based board.



ARNOLD

Small ARM board.



Applied Data Systems

This company sells SA1110 based StrongARM boards which are especially made for applications with low power and high performance requirements.



impA7

impA7 is a complete embedded PC, developed by implementa, based on a 72 MHz ARM7 core. The system has a variety of peripherals integrated and has a very low power design.



Karo Electronics

XScale board "Triton" and automation plattform "INFINTY" which is based on it.


x86



Stanford Wearables

Mini server based on Jumptec's DIMM-PC. The first attempt to install Linux on a Jumptec DIMM-PC was done by the Stanford Wearable Computing Laboratory.



Tiquit

Company founded by the people from the stanford wearables project. Sells solutions concerning with small computer systems.



Apolio

Apolio develops turn key solutions for internet based peripherals, based on the self developed Trio-"System on Chip".



MachZ
