AAEON’s new compact size board PCM-6896 targets high-end multime- dia and networking applications. This board is supported by Intel Celeron and Pentium III CPUs, easy Upgrading allows you to take full advantage of Intel’s Development of even-higher speed Celeron and Pentium III CPUs. This is a perfect choice for embedded applications that Require cost-effective high computing power communications Products – whether video, voice, or data convergence over
Internet Protocol network infrastructures.
The PCM-6896 also adopts the 10/100MB Intel 815E Ethernet controller that offers higher network performance and reliability. In addition, the PCM-6896 also features power management to minimize power con- sumption. It complies with the ACPI standard and supports three types of power-saving features: Doze mode, Standby and Suspend modes. The board’s watchdog timer automatically resets the system or gener- ates an interrupt in case the system stops due to a program bug or EMI.
The onboard compact flash will offer a larger memory bank for data storage of all types. Compact Flash requires a fraction of power used to drive floppy disk or CD-ROMs, also no battery is required to save the data when the computer powers down.
The onboard 10/100BaseTx Ethernet interface and Sound Blaster?- compatible audio opens up worlds of possibilities for kiosks, gaming systems, POS systems, medical and educational products.
The Fast Ethernet controller provides a tenfold increase in Network capability; and is fully compatible with traditional 10Mbps network facilities.
PCM-6896 also includes four high-speed serial ports (three RS-232, one RS-232/422/485), one multimode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port, 2 floppy drives, an Ultra DMA/100, Enhanced IDE controller supporting up to two devices with data transfer rate up to 100MB per second, and a keyboard/PS/2 mouse interface. This AAEON embedded PC includes almost everything you need for fast, worry-free embedded PC perfor- mance.
The addition of PC/104 and PC/104 Plus will allow a wide selection of accessory cards to be added to the PCM-6896. Such accessories as Ultra Wide 2 SCSI, fax modem, vehicle power supply, extra DiskOnChip,
