Go-IO is an Industrial-Internet-of-Things (IIoT) reference design designed for rapid prototyping and development of configurable industrial-control systems. Typical end applications include Industry 4.0 driven process automation for building automation for intelligent buildings, smart sensors, reconfigurable industrial control systems, and robotics. All these industrial applications require a high performance, robust, configurable solution, which Go-IO provides using a modular approach. These systems are enabled by highly integrated ICs from Maxim Integrated, delivering new levels of performance while delivering lower power dissipation in tiny footprints.

Go-IO has four different boards. The different configurations provide a varying mix of type of I/O channels and communication interfaces to target different end applications.

Design files, firmware, and software can be found on the Design Resources tab. The boards are also available for purchase.
