•LittleBoard 800 – This EBX single board computer (SBC) is a highly integrated, high- performance, rugged, high quality system based on Intel's 1.4GHz Low Voltage Pentium M 738, 1.0GHz Low Voltage Celeron M, or 600MHz Ultra Low Voltage Celeron M CPUs. In addition to the standard LittleBoard features (EBX form factor, PC/104 & PC/104-Plus interfaces, +5 volt power, watchdog timer, serial console, etc.), the LittleBoard 800 supports up to four EIDE Ultra DMA 33/66/100 IDE drives including a CompactFlash socket, two floppy disk drives, one ECP/EPP parallel port, four RS232/422/485 serial ports, four USB 2.0 ports, two Ethernet ports (one Gigabit port), IrDA, AC'97 audio interface, and PS/2 keyboard & serial mouse. It also supports Ampro BIOS extensions for OEM boot customization, power management features, up to 1GB of DDR RAM in an DIMM slot, up to 64MB UMA of AGP 4X 128-bit 3D video interface with built-in dual channel LVDS and CRT support.
Other Ampro Products
•CoreModule™ Family – These complete embedded-PC subsystems on single PC/104 or PC/104- Plus form-factor (3.6x3.8 inches) modules feature 486, VIA Eden ESPs, Celeron→, or Celeron M CPUs. Each CoreModule includes a full complement of PC core logic functions, plus disk controllers, and serial and parallel ports. Most modules also include CRT and flat panel graphics controllers and/or an Ethernet interface. The CoreModules also come with built-in extras to meet the critical reliability requirements of embedded applications. These include onboard solid state disk compatibility, watchdog timer, smart power monitor, and Ampro embedded BIOS extensions.
•MiniModule™ Family – This extensive line of peripheral interface modules compliant with PC/104 and PC/104-Plus standards can be used with Ampro CoreModule, LittleBoard, and ReadyBoard single-board computers to configure embedded system solutions. Ampro's highly reliable MiniModule products currently support USB 2.0, IEEE 1394 (Firewire), Ethernet, PC Card expansion, analog/data acquisition, additional RS232/RS485 serial ports, and general- purpose I/O (GPIO).
•MightyBoard™ Family – These low-cost, high-performance single-board computers (SBC) use the Mini-ITX form factor (6.7" x 6.7") and are available with Intel→ processors, including Pentium M. MightyBoard products offer the equivalent functions of a complete laptop or desktop PC system, including DDR memory, high performance graphics, USB 2.0, Gigabit Ethernet, plus standard PCI expansion capability in one card slot. Ampro includes configuration control and embedded BIOS extension such as watchdog timer, battery-free boot, a customizable splash screen, BIOS recovery, and serial console.
•ReadyBoard™ Family – These low-cost, high-performance single-board computers (SBC) use the EPIC form factor (4.5”x6.5”) and are available with the VIA Eden™, Intel Pentium→ III, Celeron→, Pentium M and Celeron M processors. ReadyBoard products offer functions equivalent to a complete laptop or desktop PC system, plus several expansion cards. Ampro includes configuration control and embedded BIOS extension such as watchdog timer, battery- free boot, a customizable splash screen, BIOS recovery, and serial console.
•ETX Family – These high-performance, compact, rugged Computer-on-Module (COM) solutions use various x86 processors from 300MHz VIA Eden ESP to 1.4GHz Low Voltage Pentium M 738 CPUs in an ETX Revision 2.6 form factor to plug into your custom baseboard. Each ETX module provides standard peripherals, including dual Ultra/DMA 33/66/100 IDE, floppy drive interface, PCI bus, ISA bus, serial, parallel, PS/2 keyboard and mouse interfaces, 10/100BaseT Ethernet, USB ports, Video, and AC’97 sound. ETX modules support up to 512MB or more of SODIMM DRAM. Optional –40°C to +85°C operation, along with a 50% thicker PCB are available to meet your rugged application requirements.
