USB interface takes charge of GPIB systems
A low-cost USB/GPIB interface makes it easy to add standard IEEE488.1 and IEEE488.2 bus control to any PC
The Pentium M CPU is renowned for delivering excellent performance with low heat dissipation and low power consumption, and features a CPU core operating voltage of only 1.18V.
The board is suitable for a wide range of high-performance applications including HMIs that incorporate high-quality video and audio, advanced graphics processing, broadband support, and other advanced functions.
The video output is a DVI-interface which supports high-quality LCD display with low distortion (an analogue RGB conversion adapter is included).
Dual-screen operation with combined digital and analogue output can also be supported using a splitter cable (DVI-I -DVI-D + analogue RGB) which is sold separately.
Despite being a small half-size (185 x 122mm) board, a full set of standard features are provided, including a 100Base-Tx LAN interface, two USB 1.1 ports, serial, EIDE and PS/2 interfaces, and a watchdog timer and hardware monitor RAS function.
AC97 compliant sound and serial port functions can be added by installing a separately purchased option board (ATCA-1).
