Network-ready Embedded System Computer Based On the ZFx86™

The ZF ZFx86 Integrated Development System is a network-ready and video-ready, full-function ATX size evaluation system. The system features ZF's system-on-a-chip, ZFx86, with 10/100Base-T Ethernet (PCI) card and a display controller (PCI) to create an evaluation environment that allows the OEM designer to test the ZFx86 processor with proprietary hardware and software.

Complete Feature Set
The ZF ZFx86 Integrated Development System incorporates all the functionality of a standard PC motherboard with a number of enhancements and added features. The board includes serial and parallel connectors, floppy disk header and IDE connectors, user-available flash, external JEDEC byte-wide socket, ISA and PCI expansion bus connectors, AT-compatible BIOS.

Our patent pending FailSafe® Boot ROM allows the user to easily reboot the system if the BIOS is corrupted, or if the CMOS is inadvertently configured in a manner that locks the system in an unusable mode. The user can then simply reprogram the FLASH to recover the system. In addition, an ATX power supply, hard drive (preloaded with a DOS and Linux OS), floppy drive, CD, keyboard, mouse, and cables—are all included to facilitate the engineer's bring-up task.

Speed Up Your Design Cycle
Easily integrate the widest selection of embedded hardware peripherals by attaching ISA or PCI expansion cards directly to the board via the sockets provided. The PC/AT ROM-BIOS and OS enable you to develop software on your desktop PC and then easily transfer your development work to the embedded system with little or no modification. Or you can develop your application software directly on the ZF ZFx86 Integrated Development System.
