Introduction
The ThinkCore W315/W325/W345 series of wireless RISC-based embedded computers feature a
GSM/GPRS module, RS-232/422/485 serial ports, and an Ethernet port in a small, rugged chassis.
In addition, the W325 and W345 models come with an SD slot, and the W345 also has two USB
2.0 hosts and one relay output channel.
The W300 series embedded computers are ideal for diverse, machine-to-machine embedded
applications. The computers enable the wireless operation of traditionally wired network and serial
devices, and can handle transparent data transfer, 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, we cover the various
capabilities of the W300 series embedded computers.
In this chapter, we cover the following topics:
