The TS-5500 is an Embedded Single Board Computer (SBC) that features a 133MHz 586 CPU and a wide-set of I/O interfaces.
This computer allows easy embedded application development through PC-Compatible tools and methods, while ensuring in-field reliability
and ruggedness for end-user systems. DOS and Linux are available as out-of-the-box Operating Systems for this product.
Hardware Description
This product is a compact, full-featured PC compatible Single Board Computer based on the AMD Elan520 processor. At 133MHz, it is approximately
10 times faster than our other 386EX based products for only a small additional cost. PC compatibility allows for rapid development since you can use
standard PC development tools such as Turbo C or Power Basic or Linux based tools, as well. If you have done work in the PC world in the past,
you will find you can now build applications for a very small target that does not require a keyboard, video, floppy disks, or hard drives.
Additional features include:
- PC
compatible based on AMD Elan 520 @ 133 MHz
- 3

The TS-5500 is an Embedded Single Board Computer (SBC) that features a 133MHz 586 CPU and a wide-set of I/O interfaces.
This computer allows easy embedded application development through PC-Compatible tools and methods, while ensuring in-field reliability
and ruggedness for end-user systems. DOS and Linux are available as out-of-the-box Operating Systems for this product.
Software Description
PC compatibility requires much more than just an x86 processor. It requires PC compatible memory and I/O maps as well as a PC compatible BIOS. The General Software EMBEDDED BIOS (Version 4.3) offers a high degree of compatibility with past and present BIOS standards allowing it to run off-the shelf operating systems and application software. This PC compatible BIOS boots to IDE Compact Flash or Drive A and the BIOS is shadowed in RAM for speed.
The TS-5000 computers are shipped, free of charge, with Embedded DOS ROM by General Software. They can also be shipped upon request with Linux pre-installed for a nominal fee. The Linux file system and kernel is also freely available on the web should you wish to install it yourself. Typically, the Linux OS requires a 16MB or larger Compact Flash or an M-Systems DiskOnChip.
Technologic Systems Embedded PCs are compatible with a wide variety of x86-based operating systems. A partial list OS's currently used with our boards by customers includes:
- TNT Embedded Toolsuite, Phar Lap Software
- UCos II
- RTKernel, On Time Software
- RTEMS, On-Line Applications Research Corporation
- DOS with WATTCP, public domain TCP/IP source code for DOS
- Linux
Linux features
- Available with Linux 2.4 kernel installed on 64 MB or higher Compact Flash
- Small Linux Initial Ramdisk can fit into onboard 2 MB Flash Drive
DOS Features
- General Software DOS-ROM included
- Full TCP/IP library for DOS (Waterloo TCP/IP)
with source code included
- Web server with full source code that can control
DIO pins
- Transfer files to and from the SBC with Zmodem
- Console redirection over a serial port
- Example programs with source code included
- BIOS natively supports Matrix Keypad masqueraded
as normal keyboard input to applications with alphanumeric
LCD masqueraded as Video Output
OS Compatibility List
- uC/OS-II Real-time multi-tasking kernel
