Protech Systems Co., Ltd. Recently announced the new embedded computing platform for low power, low profile, fanless applications based on industrial standard form factor of Half-size PCI CPU card. The PCI-1215 is equipped with VIA Eden Low Power CPU at speed of 400 / 667MHz. The fanless VIA Eden™ processor is a low power, high performance, and highly integrated x86 platform that provides the most flexible, compatible, and cost-effective solution for building the emerging new generation of connected digital information & entertainment devices.
The chipset of PCI-1215, VT8606, is built-in high performance 2D/3D graphics, flexible 66/100/133MHz system bus settings, support for PC100/133 SDRAM and multiple power saving modes. It also provides the VGA function of PCI-1215 up to 32 MB shared memory and simultaneously supports for LVDS, CRT, DVI and TV display. The PCI-1215 also built with Realtek 8100BL to support 10/100 Base TX fast Ethernet and Wake-On-LAN function. It has one 144-pin SO-DIMM socket supporting up to 512MB DRAM. Other than these, PCI-1215 also has one enhanced EIDE (UDMA33/66/100), one FDD interface, two serial ports, one parallel port, one IrDA port, and two USB ports to provide multi-functions concurrence with networking operation.
The PCI-1215 also supports PC/104 specification; the PC/104 Consortium established a standard specification for the PC/104 and PC/104-Plus for use in high speed PCI bus of embedded applications. Combining the PCI bus with the industry proven PC/104 form-factor brings many advantages to its users including fast data transfer over a PCI bus, low cost due to PC/104's unique self-stacking bus, and high reliability because of PC/104's inherent ruggedness.
The PCI-1215 is designed to meet the needs of applications that require extraordinary computing performance and reliability. It can run Windows® 95/98/2000/XP, Linux 7.3, etc. operating systems, as well as embedded real-time applications. The PCI-1215 is the ultimate solution for telecommunications, Internet, industry automation, and network computing applications. |
