NORWOOD, Mass. – United Electronic Industries (UEI) in Norwood, Mass., is introducing the Intel x6425RE quad-core rugged computer for programmable automation control in aerospace, defense, transportation, and automated testing applications.
The processor is for avionics testing and verification, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, ground vehicles, control, testing and verification, and other mission-critical systems.
The x6425RE processor brings real-time computing power with support for Windows 11 IoT Enterprise and Rocky Linux 9.2 operating systems. Its 64-bit quad-core architecture runs at 1.9 GHz with a 200-Watt power draw. It offers eight gigabytes RAM, 32 gigabytes eMMC storage, and an M.2 slot for 320-gigabyte NVMe solid-state drives.
Controller can run LabVIEW
Engineers can run LabVIEW applications on the controller to eliminate external PCs and reduce latency for real-time control and monitoring. The system operates from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius, and offers dual Gigabit Ethernet ports support IEEE-1588 and time-sensitive networking.
Security features include TPM 2.0 for hardware-based data protection. Language support includes C/C++, Python, LabVIEW, MATLAB, Simulink — and compatibility with more than 90 I/O and avionics boards.
