Merlino Board Gambling Machine Dev Kit (The Dev kit include all the software tools and C++ demo code, to develop a gambling machine)
Hardware Main Features
Power:
Single voltage of 12V also not stabilised (Jamma)
Video Section:
Optimised for the viewing of vide-graphic animation.
VGA CRT/LCD output configurable with resolutions up to 1024x768. - Standard connector out
Video output RGB 15/25 Khz with resolutions of 320x240 and 420x240 - Jamma out
All supported resolutions handle 65000 colours.
Management of the Alpha Blending function (transparency of the viewed graphic objects).
In order to lighten the work load of the processor a function has been installed on the hardware which makes it possible to superimpose two images and calculate the result point by point according to the "alpha" colour which determines the transparency.
Web Server:
TCP/IP interface on board, operates as a web server.
Audio Section (Jamma and external connector):
16 bit stereo audio with 10+10W audio amplifier.Input/Output (Jamma):
16 lines for digital input and 16 lines for output with a power driver.All the I/O are protected from eventual radio-electrical disturbances.
Memory of User Data:
64 MB of Flash Memory (Intel Strata Flash) - Expandable.Serial BUS:
1 port for 12C Bus to which it is possible to connect up to 255 peripherals2 RS232 ports -
Output for CC_TALK Bus (Jamma and external connector)
Clock System
Real Time Clock with pad battery - Watch Dog Timer
Non Volatile Memory
256K FRAM (ferroelectric memory)Safety
Implementation of an architecture which reasonably protects from eventual violation both of the software and hardware.
Optional Modules available:
Module for GSM-GPRS connections - GPS reception module
USB Interface module - Bluetooth interface module
Touch Screen module

Its the best alternative to a PC for embedded application. I hope that this can help you. Jezz

software
Very good card but the cost is a little higher than other solutions. So if I pay this board 300 euros (circa) whow much I have to ask to my final customers? ;-)
Sincerely
Thank you Jazz. About this board, I think this is an hi-performance solution, but the cost is very high for a single board (300 euros) and the SDK 15K!!! Too expensive!!! :-\
Sincerely,
The price that I have known is different. For SDK, we have a agreement that diverts the dev kit cost from the production boards cost. I don't know if this is a reserved information, you should directly contact Seventech and .....to bargain over. Jezz

contact
I contacted Seventech and the board cost is 300 euros per piece, 15000 euros for the SDK.
Sincerely,
