Cogent Computer Systems, Inc. designs and manufactures the
Cogent Single Board (CSB) series as well as custom development
boards for the major semiconductor houses. CSB's are based upon
leading integrated CPU's from Motorola, Intel, IBM and AMD (among
others). The CSB2xx series provides a cost effective platform for
software development as well as for integration into custom equipment,
while the CSB3xx series is oriented towards OEM applications (though
also quite well suited for software development with the appropriate
CSB30x Breakout Board). CSB4xx boards were originally custom designs,
but had sufficient usefulness for general purpose use.

CSB937 - Development/Target board for the CSB637
The CSB937 Development Board converts the
CSB937 Micro Single Board Computer (uSBC) into
an advanced product development platform. As the
CSB937 uSBC is optimized for OEM use, it does not
have the DB9's, RJ45, Switches, etc. found on
larger, older technology single board computers.
The CSB937 provides those standard connectors,
while also allowing complete access to the GPIO
and peripheral functions of the CSB637 needed
during the product development stage.
Schematics and gerbers are available free of charge
to assist in the design and integration of the CSB937
into your custom product.
CSB937 Specifications
- Appropriate Connectors for RS232 (Debug UART), Ethernet and USB (Host and Device)
- Two GPIO Driven LED's for Status Display
- One GPIO Readable Switch for User Input
- Type I/II Compact Flash and 4-Bit SD/MMC Sockets
- .1" Headers for access to all unused and most used CSB637 signals for analysis and expansion
- 5V @ 3A Switxhing Regulator for USB Host, LCD and LCD Backlight
- Compact 4" x 5" size

CSB360 - ColdFire 5272-based
|
At the heart of the CSB360 lies the Motorola Coldfire MCF5272
Microprocessor. The Coldfire Version 2 core provides excellent
performance with low power consumption. This ability, combined
with the on-chip 10/100 Ethernet, QSPI and USB ports allows
the MCF5272 to form the basis of low-cost, high performance
products for industrial automation,
telematics, medical applications and many others.
The MCF5272 Address and Data Bus as well as all GPIO are
made available via .1" Stacking Headers. These headers
are on.1" centers for easy mating with standard prototyping
boards. All this, plus the SD Card, Dual CAN and Color/BW
LCD Controller, make the CSB360 ideal for a wide variety
of product design and development tasks.
FEATURES:
. 66 Mhz MCF5272 Coldfire Version 2
. 32Mbyte SDRAM and 8Mbyte FLASH
. Dual RS-232 Ports and USB 1.1 Device Port
. Integrated 10/100 Ethernet Interface
. Infineon SAK82C900 Dual CAN via QSPI
. Secure Digital/MMC Card Socket via QSPI
. Compact 3.20" x 3.50" Board
. Epson S1D13706 LCD Controller supports up to 320x240 TFT, HR-TFT and
STN Displays
. Open Source Micromonitor Boot ROM
. Stacking Headers provide a Male Header (top) and Female socket (bottom)
for ease of use
. Low Profile Version (Male Headers on top only) also available for OEM
use
. Customized Versions along with OEM/Academic Discounts are also available
. Optional Development Kit includes Power Supply, Cables and CSB300 Breakout
