This is especially the case with computers, as out-of-the-box systems rarely fit the bill. But are custom-built boards even needed? And how do you choose the best-embedded PC integrator? Here’s […]

When installing embedded computers in medical settings, there are many things to consider. Unlike an industrial location, hygiene is of utmost importance, apart from absolute adherence to safety norms. After all, these computers are used to control lifesaving medical equipment, so any errors can be fatal. To ensure that all electronic devices – including but […]

If you have ever been involved in the installation of an industrial computer, you must have come across the term DIN rails. A core step when setting up a network of embedded computers, DIN rail mounting is the default method for installing crucial electrical devices. This begs the natural question: what is a DIN rail, […]

If you have ever paid attention to the technical specs of a computer’s motherboard, you may have come across terms like Micro-ATX or Mini-ITX. Referred to as form factor, this name apparently decides the category of the motherboard. But how exactly do these form factors differ? Which form factor should you go for? Here is […]

In the world of embedded computers, fanless PCs are quickly becoming the norm.

Deploying an embedded computer is not as simple as just buying a standard PC and slotting it in. No, there is a multitude of factors to consider, from the unique needs of the application in question to the technical parameters that must be tailored to precision. This is why at Global American, we do not […]

Industrial systems aren’t just standard computer components packed into a small chassis. For an embedded computer to function properly in harsh environments, other features are also needed. The Boxer-6641 is one such “rugged” computer, designed to be utilized in adverse operating conditions like high temperature, high humidity, and even physical vibrations. Here is a breakdown […]
