PPC-A9-170-C

The PPC-A9-170-C (PN CS12102F170P) is a high-quality industrial panel computer, that features a 17-inch LCD with a capacitive touchscreen, a quad-core Cortex-A9 processor with 2GB DDR3 RAM and 8GB eMMC Flash, an onboard WiFi and Bluetooth, 1Gb Ethernet, USB 2.0, RS232, RS485, and CAN ports, 1 HDMI port for a secondary monitor, a SATA-II channel for extra storage, as well as a 3.5mm audio connector.

Hardware description

The PPC-A9-170-C has several expansion connectors on the back side – USB 2.0, HDMI, LAN, CAN, RS485, and RS232 connectors. It also features a WiFi/BT module with an antenna and a 3.5mm audio connector. The 4G/LTE module is optional.

The WiFi/Bluetooth module is based on the Realtek RTL8723BS an 802.11bgn 2.4G single-chip that integrates Wireless LAN (WLAN) and an SDIO interface controller with integrated Bluetooth 2.1/3.0/4.0 controller. It combines a WLAN MAC, a 1T1R capable WLAN baseband, and WLAN RF in a single chip.

The CAN, RS485, and RS232 connector is a 16 Pin 3.81mm screw terminal connector (as you can see from the image). The speed of the RS232 and the RS485 port is up to 115200 Baud.

Since this display has 5 UART channels, they can be configured as RS232 or RS485. One UART channel is used by Bluetooth – the default setting is 4 * RS232 + Bluetooth. Please contact us if you require a different configuration.

The PPC-A9-170-C has one channel 1Gb Ethernet port, and one HDMI port which can be configured by software. The maximum resolution supported on the external HDMI monitor is 1920×1080 at 60Hz.

The PPC-A9-170-C has one 3.5mm Output/input connector and a 2W internal speaker when it comes to audio capabilities.

The PPC-A9-170-C features a 17’’ display with a 1280×1024 pixel resolution, 400 nits brightness, and a 10-point capacitive touch screen that offers stable and accurate control over the device, as well as great image clarity

When it comes to the viewing angle, the screen offers various angles: top, bottom, left, and right view.

If your application requires a secondary display the HDMI port on the back of the panel allows the device to work in a double monitor configuration up to 1920×1080 pixel resolution at a 60Hz refresh rate.

Performances and reliability

This System-on-Module makes it possible to integrate a whole computer into a device, significantly simplifying the customization of the device. This is why we are able to offer fast turnaround customization of all our products.

At the core of each Chipsee product lies a System-on-Module. This means all the products share the same core. It makes your application easily upgradable – without needing to rewrite a single line of code your application is upgraded, thanks to the same System-on-Module.

This product features the .iMX 6 series of application processors, the CS-SOM-iMX6Q.

The .iMX6Q Quad processor represents the latest achievement in integrated multimedia applications processors. They feature advanced implementation of the quad Arm® Cortex®-A9 core, which operates at speeds up to 1.2 GHz. They include 2D and 3D graphics processors, 1080p video processing, and integrated power management. Each processor provides a 64-bit DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR2 memory interface and a number of other interfaces for connecting peripherals, such as WLAN, Bluetooth®, GPS, hard drive, displays, and camera sensors.

Contact us for further details if you want to buy the CS-SOM-iMX6Q separately.

Multiple OS choices

This product comes with a pre-installed OS of your choice. Please use the drop-down menu to choose the one you need, and we’ll pre-install it for you.

It supports the following operating systems:

  • Yocto Linux Qt 5.5
  • Yocto Linux Qt 15.5
  • Android 6.0
  • Android 8.0
  • Ubuntu 14.04
  • Ubuntu 18.04

* Chipsee Linux is based on NXP Yocto framework that we have integrated with:

  1. A Chipsee Hardware Test Application.
  2. An initialization script for GPIO/Buzzer/Audio.
  3. Multiple libraries, such as the libQt5Sql to develop Qt application with SQL.
  4.  Various packages, such as the ntfs-3g to use NTFS.

Chipsee software engineers have created all the drivers, so every hardware feature is readily available for any standard development tool. If your project requires an OS that is not on the list, please contact us, and we’ll make a customized version that suits your needs.
