Host Engineering's H2-ECOM100 Ethernet communication module was awarded Control Engineering's 2004 Editor's Choice award. For more details, read the article "PLC gets 100 Mb Ethernet I/O modules".
"Many times we have found an off-the-shelf processor that either has so many peripherals that it ends up being too expensive and too large of a package for what we need, or it did not have all of the peripherals that we need, thus requiring us to add an FPGA to the design.
"Utilizing the Nios processor and Cyclone FPGA approach, we can get the exact mix of peripherals we need, in a package that we need, at a reasonable cost. In addition, we can reduce the number of unique parts in our inventory by using the same hardware platform for all of our designs. This reduces the collective purchasing effort, thus saving overhead."
