Intel Industrial Control Reference Design

Industrial OEMs, systems integrators and users developing control systems must quickly respond to changing performance, safety and feature requirements, but system architectures based on inflexible 'everything-in-one' ASICs and ASSPs are slowing the pace of redesigns. Whenever there's a need for new functionality or additional performance, a new ASIC or ASSP has to be designed and deployed. Developing these complex chips requires experienced engineers, who are in short supply, and companies can ill-afford to take a trial and error design approach.

To meet the need to simplify system development and get to market faster, the Intel industrial control reference design facilitates the migration to a flexible modular architecture. It's based on an easy-touse platform, comprising hardware and software components from industrial market leaders.
