Extensive Peripheral Integration
1. Custom Designs/Solutions



BD specializes in creating semi-custom solutions
based on its’ wide array of standard products
Time to Market is critical and one size does NOT
fit all – optimize solution to meet cost, hardware,
mechanical, and software specifications
Custom boards delivered quickly and at a
reasonable price
Example 1: Company looking to take
existing industrial controls product
and give it a facelift. Needs a 4.3”
display, video playback,
RS485/RS232 support and custom
form factor.
IMX53 Custom Development Example
 “I like the Ipad but I need it to…”
 Custom Tablet Development
 Mining Company needed tablet to send with inspectors to
inspect and repair mining equipment
 Need low power SBC for long battery life but high performance
to run Android and a variety of peripherals
 Wide variety of peripheral requirements including Accelerometer,
Compass, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, Cellular, IR Touch, Bright LEDs,
Camera
 Designed custom IMX535 board to meet customer requirements
2. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
 Power Electronic Devices via an Ethernet cable
– just requires PoE module and PoE Switch
 Allows power AND data to be supplied by the
same CAT 5 cable
 Removes need for costly electricians to install
conduit, wiring, and outlets
 Pluggable PoE Module can be used with ANY
Boundary Devices Board
 On-Shelf Advertising and Access Control are
two ideal markets
