MIDDLETON, Wis., 5 Nov. 2010. Extreme Engineering Solutions Inc. (X-ES) in Middleton, Wis., is shipping the XPort9100 rugged XMC module that supports eight 28-volt general-purpose input/output (GPIO) channels for embedded computing control subsystems within military aircraft and military vehicles.

The XPort9100 is for avionics, as well as for ground vehicle and shipboard electronics applications, to control subsystems such as fire control and target acquisition systems.

The XPort9100 features eight 28-volt avionics-level GPIO channels; each GPIO is configurable as either an input or an output; each I/O signal is optically isolated; and a conduction-cooled XMC form factor.

Each input channel of the XPort9100 can be configured to generate an interrupt, and each output channel is capable of pulse-width modulation (PWM). For more information contact X-ES online at www.xes-inc.com.
