Based on the company’s ETRAX 100 system-on-a-chip, the Axis Developer Board gives designers of networked embedded systems a powerful and flexible platform for the rapid prototyping of Internet appliances and wireless applications. The development board also includes an embedded version of the Linux operating system, as well as communications ports most commonly used with the ETRAX chip. These features let developers immediately test new applications without building their own hardware. The products that can be developed using the board range from Bluetooth-enabled cell phones to vending machines, barcode scanners and building automation systems. Pricing for the Axis Developer Board is $449, which includes up to three support incidents.
