VIA Technologies recently announced the EPIA-P720 Pico-ITX board, which takes advantage of the latest VIA VX855 media system processor (MSP) to deliver smooth playback of the latest HD video formats for next-generation digital interactive devices. The MSP takes the video decompression burden from the central processor, applying hardware acceleration for compression-intensive codecs, including H.264, VC1, WMV9 and MPEG 2/4, at display resolutions up to 1080p. The board also boasts several display connectivity options including native HDMI, VGA and LVDS support.
Measuring a mere 10 x 7,2 cm, the VIA EPIA-P720 is based on the ultra compact Pico-ITX form factor. Powered by a low-power, fanless 1 GHz VIA Eden ULV processor, the board supports up to 2 GB of DDR2 system memory. The VIA Chrome9 HCM 3D integrated graphics core boasts full DirectX 9.0 support and a 128-bit 2D engine with hardware rotation capability.
The VIA EPIA-P720 uses a specially designed I/O add-on board, the VIA P720-A, which complements the native HDMI port to add a VGA port, a Gigabit LAN port and two USB 2.0 ports. The VIA Vinyl HD audio codec provides 6-channel, DTS capable audio with S/PDIF support. Storage is provided in the form of an onboard 44-pin IDE connector and one S-ATA port. Onboard pin headers provide support for an additional four x USB 2.0 ports, an LPC connector, SMBus connector, PS/2 support, audio jacks, LVDS, four pairs of DIO and two UART ports.
