The PCA-6188 is a next-generation Socket 478 Intel Pentium 4 processor based full-sized single board computer with 800/533/400MHz front side bus.
The PCA-6188 is a next-generation Socket 478 Intel Pentium 4 processor based full-sized single board computer with 800/533/400MHz front side bus.
The PCA-6188 is designed with the Intel 875P chipset and 6300ESB (I/O controller) to support the most advanced Intel Pentium 4 processors.
High-speed/high-capacity dual-channel DDR400 memory, and high performance I/O functions such as dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, AGP 8x graphic controller, serial/parallel ATA ports, and a PCI-X (64bit/66MHz) bus provide advanced throughput.
Compliant with PICMG 1.0 specification, PCA-6188 can be used with a wide choice of existing PCI/ISA backplanes and is versatile enough to meet the requirements of any industrial application.
The PCA-6188 is designed to deliver high performance computing for a range of industrial applications.
It uses Intel's long-life 875P and 6300ESB chipset, capable of running the fastest Pentium 4 and Celeron processors.
It has four DIMM sockets in two separated memory channels and can support ECC (error checking and correction) for top reliability.
It accepts up to 4Gbyte of DDR400/333/266 SDRAM, enough for most of applications, and the CSA (Communications Streaming Architecture) port of the 875P chipset provides dedicated 266Mbyte/s bandwidth for the 82547 Gigabit Ethernet controller.
The second Gigabit Ethernet port uses Intel's 82541 controller connected to the 32bit PCIbus of the 6300ESB I/O controller.
The onboard AGP 8x ATI Mobility Radeon 9600 Pro graphic accelerator provides dual VGA display and supports LVDS and DVI interface.
Two serial ATA ports (up to 150Mbyte/s) allow the use of thin and long SATA cables for storage devices, eliminating cabling issues inside the industrial grade chassis.
In addition, the PCA-6188 also provides most of the popular I/O interfaces, such as four USB 2.0 ports, AC97 audio interface, two RS232 ports, one enhanced parallel port, and a floppy disk interface.
The PCA-6188 is designed with consideration for reliability to be suitable for industrial environments within a wide range of operating temperatures, up to 60C.
The CMOS data backup and restore function protects the BIOS setup data from loss due to battery failure.
A 256-level watchdog timer prevents the system from hanging up if a program cannot be executed normally.
A remote management port allows users to monitor the system health status and control the system remotely through standard SNMP/HTTP protocols when used with Advantech's SNMP-1000 Intelligent System Manager.
