1. INTRODUCTION The ETX-945 is a highly integrated computer-on-module (COM) available with a range of high perf ormance Intel®
CoreTM 2 Duo, Core Duo, and CeleronTM M processors. The module provides an SO-DIMM socket for up to 2GB
of DDR2 DRAM, and provides interface controllers for high-resolution CRT and LVDS-interfaced displays,
10/100Mbps Ethernet, SATA and IDE storage devices, USB 2.0, audio, serial, parallel, and PS/2 ports.
Additionally, the ETX-945 provides a high degree of system expansion flexibility via the presence of both 32-bit
PCI and 16-bit ISA expansion buses on its ETX 3.0 compliant baseboard interface connectors.
