Anaconda
EBX Single Board Computer
Overview
Highlights
The Anaconda is a moderate performance, low power embedded
computer designed on a standard EBX form factor. It is powered
by a DMP Vortex86DX2 processor that enables the entire board
to use less than 7W (typ.). Several I/O interfaces, multiple
expansions buses, and thermal management options provide
systems designers with flexibility and lower overall system cost.

Anaconda was designed with no moving parts, soldered-on
RAM, and ready to withstand high shock and vibration. Industrial
temperature versions are available. This Single Board Computer
is an ideal choice for applications that require high quality, lowpower, and long product life.
As with all VersaLogic products, the Anaconda is backed by a
five-year warranty, 5+ year off-the-shelf availability guarantee,
and expert US-based technical support. Product Life Extension
options support availability through the year 2025.
