What if you could prototype on a Pi; and deploy seamlessly to industry?
Now with Brainboxes BB-400 Neuron Edge Controller you can. Hardware that meets the needs of industry combined with all the benefits of Raspberry Pi to create an edge processor that can take your system from inception to the factory floor.
REAL TIME I/O
Raspberry Pi is capable of handling edge processing but as an operating system its multi-tasking isn’t dedicated to real-time I/O. In an industrial setting you need instant responses. With a dedicated Arduino onboard, the BB-400’s Industrial Raspberry Pi monitors & controls I/O lines in real time.
POWER SUPPLY
Raspberry Pi requires 5.1V, industrial environments run on 12 or 24 VDC. The BB-400’s power management system supplies the right voltage to the CPU. 5-30VDC Dual Redundant Power input and Uninterruptible Power Supply make it a perfect fit for the factory floor.
INDUSTRIAL TEMPERATURE RANGE
Industrial products need to work at high temperatures. When Raspberry Pi gets hot it automatically reduces its core frequency to keep the CPU temperature below the threshold, reducing processing power and risking complete shutdown. A custom heatsink industrialises the Raspberry Pi, and brings the BB-400 up to spec: tests indicate no throttling even at 100% CPU usage.
Brainboxes range of Industrial ethernet to digital I/O modules and switches enable simple, reliable communication and control of your equipment.
