Overview

Not recommended for new designs, replaced by SITCore.

The original .NET for embedded systems, running on the GHI Electronics hardware you know and love.


NETMF History

.NET Micro Framework (NETMF) is a subset of the full .NET Framework. This framework is no longer active — it’s been replaced by the modern and secure SITCore product family, running TinyCLR OS.


Upgrade Path

While the NETMF operating system is no longer active, the GHI Electronics NETMF SoMs and SoCs are still in production in accordance with our longevity promise. Customers should consider upgrading to the SITCore (Secure IoT Core) product family.

Many of the SITCore modules are very close to the older NETMF modules, making for an easier upgrade path.


G30

84MHz chipset with 128KB RAM and 68KB RAM.

G80

180MHz chipset with 256KB RAM and 156KB RAM.

G120/G120E

120MHz ARM Cortex-M3 SoM with 16MB SDRAM and 4MB FLASH.

G400D/G400S

400Mhz AT91 ARM9 SoM with 128MB SDRAM and 4MB FLASH plus Ethernet PHY.
