xPico – Small Low Cost Embedded Serial Connectivity

Looking for a small and flexible solution for adding networking to a design with minimal engineering? The xPico is the right solution for you! The xPico is the latest in the long line of embedded serial networking solutions provided by Grid Connect / Lantronix. With its small and compact size the xPico allows for all the power of an XPort with the flexibility and low cost of a chip solution. xPico enables for the addition of Ethernet connectivity onto an existing design with a serial interface. It includes a full IP stack, built in web server and a complete device server application. The included software set provides superior connectivity while allowing for simple remote access into device data. The xPico also includes 256-bit AES Encryption at no additional cost. xPico expands upon the functionality of the XPort by bringing more pins to your circuit board. This adds full serial port control with pins for both DTR/DCD and RTS/CTS as well as 6 software selectable programmable I/O pins. The xPico sets itself apart from existing embedded serial solutions in the market with its incredibly small size and low price. This allows for much more flexibility in design for adding Ethernet connectivity without the engineering involved in a chip solution. With the included applications built into xPico there is very little development effort needed enabling you to keep costs down and lower your time to market.
