DURION BUS-PC - Integrated Single Control Unit (SCU) for Buses

• 
• 

OVERVIEW:

The DURION™ BUS-PC is a rugged purpose-built fully integrated Vehicle Single Control Unit (SCU) targeting bus ITxPT and BIS16833 ITS-installations in connected Smart City scenarios. Built to comply with strict requirements of ARAI certification, this device optimally combines wired and wireless communication interfaces, peripherals, satellite and sensor assisted navigation with a high efficiency multi-core 64-bit ARM processor. Designed in an ultra-compact “heavy duty” die-cast powder coated conduction cooled IP65 aluminium enclosure, the DURION BUS-PC includes two rugged “System Connectors” for all power, control and I/O, M12 X-coded connector for the digital display interface and locking TNC antenna connectors for cellular and GNSS antennas. The WiFi antenna is structural and part of the enclosure. The locking System Connectors simplify vehicle cable harness design.

The DURION BUS-PC has a wide input range (8-38VDc) PSU with a multi-stage EMC-filtering and input protection. The overvoltage protection will accept transients exceeding 100VDC and surge voltages up to +-2KV. The system includes a LiPO back-upo battery, which provides up to 4 hour autonomy with reduced fucntionality, compliant with AIS140 standards. A 32-bit system management coprocessor monitors the booting of the application processor, internal temperatures, system power rails and input voltage and currents as well as the charging of the internal battery. An ignition signal controls the systems's start-up and delayed power-off. A wide operating temperature range and IP65 ingress protection rating ensures reliable operation in arctic and tropical environments.

The DURION BUS-PC optimally balances integration and functionality. Basing on a 2GHz 6-core HW coprocessor accelerated ARM SOC, the DURION delivers outstanding computational performance with a low power consumption. Multiple cores can be used in parallel for video compression in real time. Apart from standard USB, RS232/485 Serial and Audio I/O the BUS-PC includes a full CAN 2.0 interface with J1939 protocol support, 4 or 8x Composite video Inputs, 4x 0-5/10V analogue inputs, as well as isolated 24VDC digital Inputs and open collector 24VDC isolated digital outputs. The display interface bases on Duragon's digital serialized DuroLinkII interface, which combines display power, PCAP touchcreen interface and 18-bit LVDS into a single CAT6 twisted pair cable. A high speed soldered down eMMC FLASH HDD is used for OS, application and data storage. An optional internal SATA Flash HDD can be included for applications which require NVR fucntionmality defined in BIS16833. The BUS-PC is ideal for systems that require video recording and storage combined with advanced multi-technology wireless communication, always-on vehicle location and onboard system control.
