Venice Single Board Computer Operating Manual
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Product Description
The GW7100-00 is a member of the Gateworks 7th generation Venice family of single
board computers targeted for rugged and industrial embedded applications. The
GW7100-00 features the 64-bit NXP™ i.MX8M Mini Quad Core ARM ® Cortex™-A53
SoC processor operating at 1.6GHz, 1GBytes of LPDDR4 DRAM, and 8GBytes of
eMMC System Flash. A single Mini-PCIe expansion socket can be used for PCI
Express peripherals such as 802.11ax/ac/b/g/n WiFi radios, 5G/4G/3G/CATM1 cellular
modems. Peripheral headers support Digital I/O, Analog Input, UART/TTL Serial, I2C
and SPI. A Nano SIM slot is standard for cellular modems. A 3-Axis accelerometer is
standard. An optional GPS is available. The Gateworks System Controller provides
embedded features such as real time clock, voltage and temperature monitor,
programmable pushbutton, and programmable board shut-down and wake-up for
remote applications. A wide-range DC input power supply provides up to 15W of power.
Power is applied through a dedicated header or an Ethernet port in a passive Power
over Ethernet (PoE) architecture. Ubuntu Linux BSP is supported.
