Electronic Components for POS Systems, Kiosks and Vending Machines
Industrial memory, connectivity and sensors for connected retail systems
Components for Connected POS System Design
Connected POS systems, self-service terminals and vending machines have different requirements for memory, connectivity and sensors. Component selection should reflect the system architecture, installation environment and operating profile. DACOM West supports manufacturers and system integrators in selecting industrial memory, Ethernet components, cellular solutions and sensors for their POS designs. From operating-system storage and local operational data to network connectivity and condition monitoring, we consider your application requirements alongside the characteristics of each component. Relevant criteria include interfaces, form factor, write workload, temperature range and product lifecycle. This approach helps align component selection with stationary POS terminals, connected kiosks and unattended vending machines.
POS Components in Their Application Context
Siretta Industrial Modems
Cellular modems for transmitting operational and status data from connected vending machines. Selection depends on coverage, data volume and interfaces.
CTS current sensors
Precise current measurement for energy monitoring and smart energy management.
Siretta Industrial Antennas
Antennas for cellular connectivity in kiosks and vending machines. Frequency bands, mounting method and installation conditions must match the modem and enclosure.
Silicon Power Industrial SATA
SATA SSDs for operating systems, application software and local operational data in POS terminals. Select capacity, write endurance and temperature range for the specific series.
Davicom Ethernet Components
The DM8806 is a fully integrated and cost-effective Fast Ethernet switch controller for industrial applications
Melexis Position Sensors
Magnetic or inductive position sensors for detecting flap or mechanism position. The sensing principle and integration are matched to the dispensing mechanism.
Selecting Memory, Connectivity and Sensors
Industrial memory
Select by interface, form factor, write workload and temperature range for operating systems, application software and local operational data.
Network connectivity
Ethernet for wired communication and cellular solutions for locations without a suitable fixed connection. Data volume and response-time requirements guide selection.
Sensors
Current and position sensors for monitoring defined operating conditions, including drives, access flaps and dispensing mechanisms.
Product lifecycle
Include availability, product change notifications and potential replacement components early in development planning.
Our solutions support:
- Secure data storage for transaction logging and system updates
- Wireless communication (LTE, Wi-Fi, Ethernet) for connected POS systems
- Embedded computing platforms for real-time processing
- Temperature- and shock-resistant components for unattended machines
