APPLICATIONS
The CDMA carrier board is ideally suited for embedded microcomputers in devices commonly found in the avionics/aerospace, defense, factory automation, light industrial, medical, telecom and transportation fields, such as distributed communications systems, point-of-sale devices, mobile terminals, industrial meters, vehicle or fleet management applications, and remote data logging nodes, etc.
Systems development projects not using the PC/104 bus can configure the CDMA board to communicate directly with the CDMA modem, by changing jumper settings and bypassing the PC/104 bus with a standard serial port.
