Arbor has released its economical yet high performance EBX Miniboard, the EmCore-v615.

Arbor has released its economical yet high performance EBX Miniboard, the EmCore-v615 With the ability to accept fanless VIA processors up to 800MHz, and integrating three 10/100Mbit/s Ethernet ports, the quiet and low power consuming EmCORE-v615 is a powerful platform in communication-intensive applications

Super multimedia features include a 3D engine 4X AGP VGA/LCD controller, an AC97 audio interface, an LVDS interface, and a TV output function providing multiple application requirements.

By deploying an EBX form factor, the EmCore-v615 has the processing power and reliability to handle your mission critical applications, and flexibility in a portable package that adheres to tight budget demands.

The EmCore-v615 accommodates an onboard VIA Ezra up to 800MHz or Eden processor up to 667MHz, the processors typically consuming fewer than 9W.

This low power consumption along with the fanless operation in temperatures up to 60C make this board more reliable and stable for continuous work in the most demanding conditions.

The VIA Eden processor brings the industry's highly advanced 0.13- and 0.15-micron technology to Arbor's embedded product line, which allows users to enjoy accelerated speed and efficiency, but uses the lowest power for any x86 processor at this performance level.

The EmCore-v615 features either three Intel 82559 or three RTL8139C network controllers plus fast computing power that meets the demands of any mission-critical network applications market where high performance and reliability are critical.

The EmCore-v615 can be used as a triple Ethernet mini-server or gateway device, or can be expanded to a four Ethernet port device by adding more Ethernet ports via its fast PC/104-plus socket or PCI slot for centralized management of a Secure Virtual Network.

The EmCORE-v615 incorporates the high performance VIA 8606 Integrated Savage4 video accelerator which supports a 4X AGP VGA/LCD controller with a 32Mbyte frame buffer using system memory, plus a TTL LCD interface and an LVDS (low voltage differential signalling) interface.

Complying with the AC97 2.0 standard, the EmCore-v615 adopts a VIA VT82C686B audio chipset supporting 3D-sound, line-in, CD audio-in, mic-in, and speaker-out.

And, the high-quality TV-out option provides other multimedia application options.

Based on the EBX design, the EmCore-v615 supports a PC/104-plus interface for ISA/PCI module upgradability.

Other onboard features include two LPT ports, four USB ports, one fast IrDA interface, four serial ports, three RS232 ports, and one RS232/422/485 interface.

The SSD solution supports both DiskOnChip2000 and CompactFlash card specifications.

One EIDE device with Ultra DMA-33/66/100 transfer is supported as well as one FDD interface and one PS/2 K/B and mouse port.
