Computer on module provides extra SATA
ports
The Core2 Duo architecture allows 64bit processing in the embedded market and provides features such as SSSE3, Trusted Execution Technology and Enhanced SpeedStep.
Adlink Technology's ETX-NR667 computer on module is based on the ETX 3.02 form factor, which allows two additional SATA ports while maintaining full backward compatibility with earlier ETX standards The ETX 3.02 standard means that current carrier boards do not need to be redesigned to accommodate the ETX-NR667 and make use of its SATA ports

Computer-on-module offers backward compatability
The ETX form factor 3.02 allows the addition of two SATA ports to the ETX-NR667 while maintaining full backward compatibility with earlier ETX versions.
Frame grabber supports GigE Vision standard
Board uses the full bandwidth of a PCI Express x4 lane to support up to 1000Mbit/s image acquisition rates and to provide two independent Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Acquisition cards perform many functions
Adlink's latest data acquisition cards provide a 10% increase in performance over the company's previous generation of multifunction DAQ cards.
The ETX-NR667 supports dual-channel 24bit LVDS and is designed for medical automation, gaming, instrumentation, point of sale, mobile computing and transportation applications.
The ETX-NR667's CPU can be a ULV Celeron operating at a frequency of 1GHz or an Intel Core2 Duo, allowing the ETX-NR667 to be used in both fanless applications that require very low power and in applications that need high speed for high-end graphic support.
The Core2 Duo architecture allows 64bit processing in the embedded market and provides features such as SSSE3, Trusted Execution Technology and Enhanced SpeedStep.
This generation of Intel CPUs maintains the same power envelope as the earlier Pentium M generation while increasing performance and offering additional high-end and power saving features, making the ETX-NR667 an excellent choice for drop in replacements to improve performance.
The ETX-NR667 module provides one SODIMM socket that can accommodate up to a maximum of 2Gbyte of DDR2 667MHz memory.
Graphics support on the module includes single or dual-channel 24bit LVDS, analogue CRT and TV-out (SDTV and HDTV).
The module further incorporates an Intel based 10/100Base-T Ethernet port, a PATA EIDE controller, a dual-port SATA controller, four USB 2.0 ports, two serial ports, one parallel port (SPP/ECP/EPP) shared with FDD, one PS/2 keyboard/mouse interface, an AC97 audio interface and power management functionality.
The ETX-NR667 supports PCI and legacy ISA and comes with embedded features such as a watchdog controller, RS232 console redirection and CMOS EEPROM backup for BIOS settings and battery-less operation.
The ISA bus is implemented through a PCI-to-ISA bridge, assuring both backward compatibility with ISA-based cards and dual-core processing. Request a free brochure from Adlink Technology ...
