EmbeddedATX motherboard with multiple display and I/O capabilities

8 September 2004 Computer/Embedded Technology

Advantech has released a new industrial motherboard to the embedded market. The AIMB-330 is an EmbeddedATX low profile form factor motherboard specifically designed with 'everything' onboard that is able to offer multiple independent display panel configurations, I/O, and expansion possibilities. The motherboard form factor is well-suited for embedded applications such as: point of sale, kiosks, gaming machines, and other applications that require low profile, low-cost solutions.

EmbeddedATX is compatible with the existing AIMB series rear I/O panel layout, and has the same dimensions and mounting hole locations as the MicroATX form factor, ensuring compatibility with existing specifications for reduced investments.

AIMB-330 supports socket 370 Intel Celeron and Pentium III processors up to 1,2 GHz and 1,26 GHz respectively. It has been specifically designed with flexible dual panel support and I/O options in mind. Different dual panel combinations are supported. The onboard VIA CLE 266 chipset combines a fully integrated 2D, 3D graphic processing unit with an efficient DDR memory controller to enable high quality digital video streaming, independent dual display, and smooth DVD playback.

Up to 2 Gb of DDR 266 SDRAM memory is available through two DIMM sockets and the type II CompactFlash connector can provide additional memory or OS support for XPE, CE .NET or Linux. It offers an array of I/O options. Six high-speed USB 2.0, plus two IEEE1394 ports and connectors. MiniPCI I/O modules can be used for Bluetooth, Modem, and Wi-Fi LAN capabilities.

The AIMB-330s' low profile and backwardly compatible form factor allows system integrators to upgrade existing solutions quickly, thereby protecting existing investments whilst reaching the marketplace faster.
