from the specs you've given then something like an ARM Cortex M0/M3/M4 would do. one of the higher-end STM32Fs for example - those have ethernet and they're amazingly low-power and very cheap. i got a waveshare port103R but apparently the 107R has an ethernet MAC. http://www.wvshare.com/product/Port107V.htm although, looking around there's actually an SPI ethernet board http://www.wvshare.com/product/ENC28J60-Ethernet-Board.htm so for $21 you could get the port103r and an extra $10 you get an SPI-to-Ethernet adapter. but no, these won't run debian, but they _do_ have the advantage that if you were to make this a production item (rather than a one-off) you'd be looking at postage-stamp-sized PCBs almost. l. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
