Automation / Robotics Electronics Embedded Systems IoT applications Compute industrial IoT module Raspberry Pi-basedSFERA LABS Strato Pi CM family of compact Raspberry Pi-based Compute Module (CM) servers includes two new models that provide support for the new Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4S (CM4S) alongside other performance improvements. The Strato Pi CM v3 and Strato Pi CM Duo v3 are ideally suited to industrial and IoT applications ranging from energy management and data collection to building automation and control of marine systems.
Strato Pi CM / CM Duo v3 versions provide users with the benefits of the improved performance of CM4S, which is based on the CPU used in the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B and is significantly more powerful than the CM 3+ and the older CM 3, which are all supported for back compatibility. Strato Pi v3 models feature enhanced protection of the RS-485 lines and a re-designed real-time-clock circuit with improved timekeeping accuracy and extended backup battery life. Each product retains the same watchdog, isolated RS-485 port, and USB ports with independent power control and fault detection that has been built into previous generations of Strato Pi CM / CM Duo.
