AUTOCALIBRATIONFORBEST
MEASUREMENTACCURACY
Diamond Systems’ top‐performing autocalibration
circuitry enables you to calibrate the analog circuits
under software control at any time, maintaining best
accuracy under any conditions. Temperature and time
dependent measurement drift is eliminated, as the SBC
canbecalibratedasoftenasdesiredinjustafewseconds
to ensure
accurate readings in all environmental
conditions.
THERMALMANAGEMEN
T
Neptune places the processor on the bottom side of the
baseboard.An integrated heat spreader makes thermal
contactwiththe heat generatingcomponents ontheETX
CPU module and provides a flat surface on the bottom
side for mating to the system enclosure.This technique
provides for efficient removal of heat
from the CPU
