Serious Touch Solutions

Off-the-Shelf  Intelligent Modules

Serious Communications/Control Modules (SCMs) are designed for use by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to add sophisticated IT, IoT, and industrial/factory network connectivity as well as potentially replace custom system control subsystems

Intelligent Industrial Electronics

SCMs span simple low-cost RS232/422/485 transceiver on a card, such as the SIM117, to the powerhouse SCM318 with an on-board 400MHz Arm Cortex-A9 based Renesas RZ/A1L (or Renesas RZ/A1LC) MCU and extensive wired and wireless connectivity.

All Arm-based SCMs include the full SHIPWare software load, including complete, pre-licensed, Segger embOS, emFile, emUSB, and emTCP/IP stacks and more. This complete set of enabling software and firmware enables OEMs to develop in C using the Segger Embedded Studio tools, deploying powerful custom communications bridges, applications, and even machine control algorithms.

Higher-end protocols, such as Modbus, BACnet, Dali, Ethernet/IP (and coming soon, CAN), are also available separately.
