 2 watchdog timer
 PWM 8~16channels
 JTAG interface
 AMI BIOS
 Single voltage +5V DC
 Support operating temperature range

of -10°C to +60°C

The embedded controller tiny module VDX2-6518 is designed with backward compatibility in

mind, to provide migration path for projects facing end-of-life challenges with their existing x86

based tiny module controller. This versatile controller is designed as a plug in replacement, with

backward compatibility to support legacy software to extend running product life cycle without

heavy and time consuming work.

VDX2-6518 is suitable for broad range of data-acquisition, Industrial automation, Process control,

Automotive controller, AVL, Intelligent Vehicle management device, Medical device, Human

machine interface, Robotics, machinery control And more…application that required small

footprint, low-power and low-cost hardware.
