This proverb sure has some value here in Denmark with a tough winter spanning more than 90 days of continuous sub-zero temperatures and permanent snow cluttering the streets and pavements. Even for Denmark this is quite unusual and in the midst of this, we sure had to be reminded a few times, that global warming is for real!
Finally it seems, that the winter is gone and spring is gaining momentum and with the clock now tuned to daylight saving time, we are finally looking forward to seize the daylight.
Spring also brings the first 2010 Logic IO Newsletter with a quite long and impressive list of new product releases. The MX2i Series is enriched with a new entry-level member called the MX2i basic, and the MX2i pro+ is improved with the introduction of the so called SuperGPS, offering unprecedented GPS performance in tough environments such as deep urban or even indoor use!
Also being introduced is the RTCU MX2-SOM - a complete System-On-Module with the core taken from the popular and powerful RTCU MX2i pro product. The MX2 SOM module can be designed into a customer application in the cases, where a standard product is not suitable.
Finally, there is a preview of the coming RTCU AX9 Series, positioned as the successor to the popular RTCU A5i/A9i products.
The RTCU MX2i basic is an entry level low-cost device with many advanced features, as expected from a member of the powerful and versatile MX2i family. The MX2i basic is a perfect match for basic applications not requiring all the features found in the full powered MX2i pro or the MX2i eco+.
Compared to the MX2i eco+ the RTCU MX2i basic has a reduced feature set with less I/O's, a lower capacity battery and no 1-Wire support. Finally the RTCU MX2i basic does not support the X32 enhanced memory for extremely huge programs.
The new version of the high-end RTCU MX2i pro+ now offers a world-leading, extremely high sensitivity SuperGPS 66-channels GPS receiver with unseen performance, allowing precise positioning in the most difficult environments such as deep urban or even indoor-tracking!!
The RTCU AX9 series is the successor to the current RTCU A5i and RTCU A9i product line and hosts a long range of new advanced features expected from a true member of the X32 family!
The RTCU AX9 series will be available in two versions named RTCU AX9 eco and RTCU AX9 pro, differentiated in terms of features and functionality. Current users of the RTCU A5i/A9i can choose the specific RTCU AX9 product variant depending on the exact requirement of the application. Full backwards compatibility has been ensured, so that applications already developed for the RTCU A9i can be binarily executed without need for recompilation. RTCU A5i based applications will require a simple re-compilation with no source code changes. The software compatibility in combination with the fact, that the RTCU AX9 series hardware-wise is a full superset of the RTCU A5i/A9i makes the upgrade and transition to the new RTCU AX9 series a true pleasure and a safe journey!
The RTCU MX2 SOM (System On Module) with the core taken from the popular and powerful RTCU MX2i pro product. The MX2 SOM module can be designed into a customer application in the cases, where a standard product is not suitable. All signals are available on the SOM module for easy integration, and a powerful development board is offered for rapid development and integration.
The RTCU MX2 SOM is designed to be embedded in customers own electronic design, and is therefore a completely new approach to the use of the RTCU concept.
The RTCU DX4 eco has been improved to include a 700 mAh battery-pack factory installed and ready to use.
With this improvement and the fact that the price for the RTCU DX4 eco remains the same will with no doubt increase the popularity of this exciting product.
