NovTech, IncIOTCENTIPEDE_001-129-0102_KITProgrammable Logic Development Boards and Kits

Equipped with a 110K LE FPGA with a Dual-Core Arm® Cortex® A9, the IoTCentipede™ gateway board has the computing capability to aggregate data from multiple sensors, meters and controls.

The IoTCentipede™ serves as an aggregator for a large collection of serial protocols deployed in industrial automation and machinery applications. All serial connectivity ports - UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, IO-Link®, 4-20mA loop - are isolated to allow direct connection to equipment in the real world. Wireless connectivity options include Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth® , ZigBee®, 4G/LTE, and any XBee supported protocols. Data gathered from multiple nodes can be processed in near real-time and sent to remote locations for further analysis or storage. IoTCentipede™ is a development board that can also act as an ideal reference for any new design that requires multiple serial interfaces.
