The ZIGBOX-21-HD is the Jetson TX2i model in the Diamond Systems ZIGGYBOX series, using the industrial version of the module with a 9-19 V DC input in a miniature fanless enclosure with built-in data acquisition. It suits rugged mini PC roles in unheated cabinets and outdoor test equipment from -40 to +85 °C.

  • NVIDIA Jetson TX2i Industrial Module: The TX2i is the industrial version of the TX2 module, with a Pascal GPU, 8 GB of memory and 32 GB of flash.
  • 9-19 V DC Input: The TX2i model accepts 9-19 V DC, a wider range than the TX2 model for 12 V and higher supplies.
  • Built-In Data Acquisition: Six 12-bit analog inputs at up to 1 Msps, two analog outputs and twelve 3.3 V digital I/O lines.
  • Extended -40 to +85 °C Rating: Diamond rates the system from -40 to +85 °C, with the heat sink cooling the module without forced air.
  • DIN Bracket and 32 GB Flash: The miniature enclosure ships with a DIN bracket, and the module's 32 GB of flash holds the built-in Linux OS.

ZIGBOX-21-HD Overview

Equipment that runs for years in unheated cabinets or outdoor test sites is better served by an industrial module than a commercial one. The Diamond Systems ZIGBOX-21-HD is a rugged mini PC in the ZIGGYBOX series that houses the NVIDIA Jetson TX2i and Diamond’s Ziggy carrier board in a miniature enclosure with an integrated heat sink, no fan and a DIN bracket.

The Jetson TX2i pairs an Arm CPU complex with an NVIDIA Pascal GPU, 8 GB of memory and 32 GB of flash, and the ZIGBOX-21-HD ships with a built-in Linux OS. The TX2i is the industrial version of the Jetson TX2 module, and Diamond pairs it with a wider 9-19 V DC input; Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are offered on the TX2 model only.

The I/O on the ZIGBOX-21-HD covers one Gigabit Ethernet port on RJ-45, one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0 Type A port, a micro USB OTG port, HDMI and two RS-232 ports. The built-in data acquisition circuit adds six 12-bit analog inputs at up to 1 Msps over 0-3.3 V, two 12-bit analog outputs and twelve 3.3 V digital I/O lines, supported by Diamond’s driver library and an interactive control program.

Power on the ZIGBOX-21-HD is 9-19 V DC, and Diamond rates the system from -40 to +85 °C. The heat sink cools the module without forced air, so there is no fan to clog or fail in a dusty cabinet, and the miniature size suits instruments and test fixtures. For the Jetson TX2 with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, see the ZIGBOX-20-HD.

Official Diamond Systems UK Distributor

Things Embedded is an official Diamond Systems UK distributor, supplying the ZIGBOX-21-HD with the Jetson module and Linux installed and the data acquisition software ready to use. The JETBOX FLOYD-SC takes newer Nano-size Jetson modules in a fanless DIN rail box, and the JETBOX-FLOYD adds PoE+ and three CSI camera ports. Within the ZIGGYBOX range, the TX2 model adds Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and the TX2i model uses the industrial module with a wider input range, and both share the same data acquisition circuit and enclosure.

Across our range, the ZIGBOX-21-HD sits with our small rugged PCs and our rugged Jetson computers, and its -40 to +85 °C rating places it among our extended temperature computers. Its industrial module and wider input range suit unheated cabinets, outdoor test equipment and installs powered from supplies above 15 V. Its miniature fanless housing fits inside instruments, test fixtures and small enclosures with very little spare space.
