Chapter 1 Introduction

The ThinkCore W300 Series is a line of wireless RISC-based embedded computers that feature

802.11a/b/g WLAN, RS-232/422/485 serial ports, and an Ethernet port in a small, rugged chassis.

In addition, the W321 and W341 models feature an SD slot, and the W341 features two USB 2.0

hosts and one relay output channel.

As part of the W300 Series, your embedded computer is ideal for diverse, machine-to-machine

embedded applications. It enables wireless operation of traditionally wired network and serial

devices and not only provides transparent data transfer, but also numeric computing, protocol

conversion, data processing and even data encryption. You will find it easier to build embedded

systems for distributed peer-to-peer communication, turn wired devices into wireless devices, and

introduce higher mobility and more intelligence to your system. In this chapter, learn about the

capabilities of the embedded computer.

This chapter covers the following topics:

ThinkCore W311/321/341 Hardware User’s Manual Introduction

Overview

The ThinkCore W300 Series wireless embedded computer is designed around the MOXA ART

ARM9 32-bit RISC processor. Unlike the X86 CPU, which uses a CISC design, the MOXA ART

ARM9 uses RISC architecture and modern semiconductor technology to provide a powerful

computing engine without generating significant heat. The processor also integrates UART and

LAN functions to provide exceptional communication performance, but without the bus bandwidth

limitations associated with general ARM-based communication products.

On-board NOR Flash ROM and SDRAM provides ample storage capacity, and for select models,

the SD slot gives applications extra room to expand. The built-in WLAN function supports the

802.11a/b/g standard, providing transmission security with WEP, WPA and WPA2. The backup

LAN port not only provides an alternative solution for networking but also supports Ethernet

clients, allowing any network device to plug in and connect to the WLAN. The built-in

RS-232/422/485 serial ports support a wide range of serial devices, making this platform suitable

for data acquisition and protocol conversion applications.

The Linux-based operating system comes pre-installed and ready to run, providing an open

platform for software development. Software written for desktop PCs can easily be ported to

W300 Series embedded computers by using a common complier, so little time is spent modifying

existing software code. In addition, the operating system, device drivers, and user-developed

software can all be stored in the built-in flash memory.
