Reliable, long life motherboards and single board computers (SBCs) from Contec, your complete technology design authority. Industrial strength quality and durability for manufacturers and OEMs.
At Contec, the board is just the beginning!
In the realm of technology, the task of selecting a suitable Single Board Computer (SBC) for edge applications might initially seem straightforward. Yet, beneath the surface lies a labyrinth of considerations that can confound even the most seasoned decision-makers. Analogous to purchasing a new car, where factors like cost, brand reputation, and environmental suitability play pivotal roles, the process of choosing the right SBC demands meticulous attention. From understanding the unique demands of the application's environment to navigating budget constraints and identifying essential technical specifications, each step requires careful consideration.
Our offering includes Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano:
We developed new HAT size cards (7 models) for utilizing Raspberry Pi® computers in factory automation and measurement control applications. In addition, a RAS function expansion card adds industrial computer availability and maintainability to the Raspberry Pi.
These computers include 384 Volta cores for the GPU, and two NVDLA (NVIDIA Deep Learning Accelerators) for improved deep learning performance. In ResNet-50 inference execution comparisons, the DX-U1200 enables faster edge inference execution for high-performance AI applications, including about 5.5 times faster FP16 arithmetic precision and about 21.5 times faster INT8 arithmetic precision.
Manufacturing Control
Contec motherboards and SBCs were designed by Contec to address the specific needs of our customers in a wide variety of industries around the world. Our boards are developed and manufactured in-house giving us complete control over the manufacturing life cycle.
Configuration Control
As the design owner, Contec owns the firmware down to the BIOS level for exclusive control over the configuration and product life cycle. The life cycle of a Contec board is typically 3 – 5 years and can be extended to as many as ten (10) and even fifteen (15) years and beyond.
