Stellaris® Ethernet-enabled Intelligent Display Module with PoE RDK

The Luminary Micro Stellaris® Intelligent Display Reference Design Kit (RDK-IDM) offers a complete, open-tool graphical touch-screen user interface design solution for control, automation, and instrumentation applications. Included in the RDK-IDM is the Stellaris® Intelligent Liquid Crystal Display Module (MDL-IDM). Featuring Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), the Stellaris® IDM offers a simple method to produce intelligent terminals that can be simultaneously powered and network-connected by a single CAT5 Ethernet cable. The MDL-IDM module also features additional serial connectivity options for easy implementation as a Human Machine Interface (HMI) touch display panel in an embedded control device. The MDL-IDM is the first display module available with efficient performance and robust integration of an ARM® Cortex™-M3 microcontroller.
