System development based on off-the-shelf hardware modules has traditionally been
time consuming and expensive. Providing customers with a hardware module and a
board support package is only a partial solution to the problem of getting a product to
market. Integration of components from different vendors is usually a nightmare of
inter-operablity issues that can delay your product launch. Time gained by using an
off the shelf hardware module is lost later in the integration and test phases.
Black Brook Design has developed an innovative approach to solving these
problems. Our Embedded Advantage appliances are full featured, self-contained,
system components. Our appliances are based on the reliability, security, ease of
use, and superior networking capabilities of the Linux operating system. We use
programmable hardware and software in a very innovative way so we can easily
customize a function for your specific needs. We provide a complete solution that is
much simpler to integrate into your system than a conventional OEM module.
Our small form factor, low power devices can be embedded as a module in a
centralized system or function as standalone devices in a distributed system. Use of
Black Brook Design appliances in your system allows you to avoid the risk and
frustration of having to design new features from scratch.
Because our products are based on programmable hardware we can mix and match
additional value-added functionality such as hardware based algorithm acceleration,
precise time-stamping, synchronized measurements, packet processing, telemetry,
and more. All in one easy to manage appliance! In short, a Black Brook Design
appliance is an ideal system building block.

What is a soft appliance? A soft appliance is a combination of
programmable hardware and software optimized to perform a customer
specific function. Black Brook Design's soft appliances can be embedded in
a wide variety of electronic equipment. They are semi-custom, self
contained subsystems that enable communication and control over a
network.
