New cost-efficient Linux PC
We are happy to present the new NanosG20. This Linux computer consumes just 200 milliwatts during normal use. Its diverse interfaces allow you to connect Nanos quickly and efficiently into its environment and offer a wide variety of usage scenarios.
The full-fledged operating system Debian Linux ensures a comfortable environment and direct access to common Linux software like Samba, Apache and other powerful network applications.
The low-down on Nanos: What runs under Linux on your desktop will run on your Nanos. NanosG20 comes with its own compiler, allowing easy program development. There is no need to install additional software on a development computer.

Universal board for AVR Xmega
Ledato now offers a new microcontroller board -- the xmegaA1-Board. At the heart of the board is the ATxmega128A1 microcontroller, which is equipped with a four-channel DMA controller and an eight-channel event system, and can run at clock speeds of up to 32 MHz.
XmegaA1-Board supports many standard interfaces and you can attach custom peripherals via an extension bus.
The xmega Board is well-suited to many areas of measurement and control technology, i.e., for light/motor control, measurement logging, system monitoring or as interface converter.

New example (ADC with DMA) for SAMDIP-7X
This sample shows how to make ADC conversions using the AT91 PDC and timer. Measurements are completely auto triggered leaving CPU time for other tasks. Timer0 is used to start the conversions, Timer1 is the timebase for pseudo-taskswitching.

SAMDIP-7X wins 3rd place
The industry magazine "Elektronik & Entwicklung" called on its readers to nominate the best products of the year. In the "Embedded Systems and Components" category, readers then voted on 50 new products submitted from October 2007 through September 2008.
Taskit won 3rd place in the "Embedded Systems and Components" category with its microcontroller module SAMDIP-7X.
The SAMDIP-7X boasts TDES and AES encryption systems. SAMDIP-7X stands out for its many interfaces, low power consumption and compact format of just 81.3 x 25.4 mm.

SAMDIP-7S: Important connector changes
From now on, the SAMDIP-7S will be equipped with a new connector, which brings the following advantages.
Advantages of the new connector:
- SAMDIP-7S can be connected more easily
- The pins are more sturdy
- The pin assignment remains unchanged
- SAMDIP-7S with the old connector can also be connected to the new mountings
Disadvantages of the new connector:
- the new plugs are incompatible to the old socket
The new pins measurements are 0.64 x 0.64 mm (+/- 0.05 mm) and are square. SAMDIP-7S continues to be available with the old connector, but will require a longer delivery time. Please make your needs known to us as early as possible. SAMDIP-7S is in stock with the new connector.
Going forward, the SAMDIP evaluation board will only be available with the new socket. We advise all customers to migrate to the new connector. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

New AES example for SAMDIP-7X
This program uses SAMDIP's hardware encryption unit to encode strings read via USART in Cipher Block Chaining (CBC) mode. Using CBC ensures that the same string encoded twice will not produce identical output. The program reads in strings via serial connection, encodes them and sends the output back.

New EEPROM example for SAMDIP-7X
This program shows how to use SAMDIP-7X's EEPROM. It can also be understood as basic I2C/TWI sample. Commands allowing access to the EEPROM are read from debug port, transformed to EEPROM commands and send over TWI. Output is shown on debug port. Available commands are printed at startup vial debug port.

New SPI demo for SAMDIP-7X
This program illustrates very simple SPI access in master mode. Data transfers are made in a non-blocking, interrupt driven way using DMA. Status information appears every second over serial line.
