What is the difference between Industrial and Commercial Computers?

05 Dec.,2023

 

The so-called industrial computers mean that computer applications in the industrial field. Although industrial computers and general computers are basic common main parts, such as CPU, memory, graphics card, hard drive, keyboard, mouse, optical drives, displays, etc., because of the special nature of the industrial environment, therefore industrial computer also has many of its own characteristics.

An early industrial computer is a better quality of PC. But over time, the industry has changed the nature of the computer architecture, according to the user environment changes, evolved into the now popular added card backplane architecture. The advantage of this architecture is to reduce maintenance time, excellent scalability, and excellent heat dissipation.

Industrial computers also the following characteristics:

1) In line with “EIA” the chemical industry-standard steel chassis, enhanced resistance to electromagnetic interference.

2) Bus architecture and modular design techniques. CPU use and the functional modules are inserted plate structure, and layering with rubber lock, improved impact resistance, vibration resistance.

3) A highly reliable industrial power, and overvoltage, over current protection.

4) Both with an electronic power supply and a keyboard lock switch to prevent illegal, off, and illegal keyboard input.

5) A self-diagnostic function.

6) Visualization requires optional I / O modules.

7) Has a “watchdog” timer when crashes due to failure without human intervention and automatic reset.

8) Great openness and compatibility can run a variety of applications software directly.

9) Real-time operating system can be configured to facilitate multitasking scheduling and running.

10) Passive motherboard, easy system upgrades.
