Compact board has plenty of expansion

Aaeon's new compact board, the PCM-6892 targets home automation, POS, networking, and kiosk/POI markets.

Aaeon's new compact board, the PCM-6892 targets home automation, POS, networking, and kiosk/POI markets.

To fulfil the critical demand of the above markets, the PCM-6892 features PCMCIA expansion interface, large size display support ability, low profile design and dual LAN whilst remaining a cost-effective solution.

The onboard Via Ezra/Eden EBGA mobile CPU is built with 0.13 and 0.15 micron manufacturing processes enabling cool processing by minimising power consumption and heat generation.

Built-in level 1 and level 2 caches accelerate computing performance.

With the embedded 3Dnow! and MMX Technology, this CPU is capable of high-end multimedia applications.

The PCM-6892 comes with an 8606 Twister North Bridge with an integrated AGP 4X 2D/3D graphics accelerator.

With its 36bit dual channel LVDS and TTL signal interface, this board can display CRT and up to 36bit TFT LCD panels simultaneously.

The integrated AC97 2.0/SoundBlaster legacy audio also provides better sound presentation for multimedia applications.

Dual 10/100Base-Tx Ethernet controllers provide superior networking access ability for high speed networking applications such as gateway, VPN and mini servers.

The CompactFlash socket offers a larger memory capacity for data storage of all types.

An onboard PCMCIA interface on the solder side can be widely used for IEEE1394, modem, wireless LAN, storage, sound card and SCSI etc and eliminates the need for costly carrier cards.

The PCM-6892 also includes four high-speed serial ports (three RS232, one RS232/422/485), one multimode parallel port, four USB ports, two floppy drives, an Ultra DMA/100 enhanced IDE controller supporting two devices with data transfer rate up to 100Mbyte/s, and a keyboard/PS/2 mouse interface.

Designers can use AT or ATX power supply types to suit application needs.
