Smart Grid energy systems are growing in complexity due to a heightened demand for greater computing power, larger storage capacity and more flexible wireless connectivity. The UC-8100 RISC computer is an embedded computing platform for large scale, big data WAN applications in solar and other energy monitoring systems, as well as in distributed industrial automation.

The UC-8100’s versatile communication capabilities let users efficiently adapt it to a variety of complex communication and processing solutions, both as a communications platform, and as a secure gateway for data acquisition and in-the-field processing. Built around a powerful ARMv7 Cortex-A8 processor, the computer comes with up to two RS-422/485 serial ports alongside dual auto-sensing 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN ports and a Mini PCIe socket to support a cellular interface and other modules. Programmable LEDs allow integrators or end users to define unique event signaling to aid when debugging or building troubleshooting tools into a system.
