Quad-core Mini-ITX boards

8 August 2012 Computer/Embedded Technology

VIA Technologies has released quad-core Mini-ITX boards featuring the latest VIA QuadCore E-Series processor. The EPIA-M900 and EPIA-M910 offer enhanced multitasking and multimedia performance on a low quad-core power budget for next-generation embedded products.

The QuadCore E-Series processor features a highly optimised, energy efficient multi-core architecture, which is natively 64-bit compatible and comes with a host of additional performance features including adaptive overclocking. To meet the low power demands of the embedded market, the processor offers elevated energy efficiency, with the 1,2+ GHz processor delivering a thermal design power (TDP) of only 27,5 W.

The distributed power of the QuadCore E-Series processor makes it ideal for handling demanding HD video formats for immersive multi-display applications and environments.

Measuring 17 x 17 cm, the EPIA-M900 features the choice of a 1,2 GHz QuadCore E-Series processor or a 1,6 GHz dual-core Nano X2 E-Series processor. Paired with the VX900 MSP, supporting up to 8 GB of DDR3 system memory and featuring the VIA ChromotionHD 2.0 video processor, the board enables the creation of a wealth of innovative next-generation digital signage, POS, kiosk, ATM, home automation, healthcare and media client system design applications.

Rear panel I/O includes a Gigabit LAN port, HDMI port, VGA port, four USB 2.0 ports, one COM port and three audio jacks. An onboard PCIe x16 slot (with effective speed up to PCIe x8) and one PCI slot is accompanied by pin headers providing one dual-channel 24-bit LVDS support (including backlight control), an additional three COM ports, a further four USB 2.0 ports and one USB device port, LPC support, two digital I/O, SPDIF out and an SMBus header.

The EPIA-M910 is available with a wide choice of VIA x86 processors, including the latest 1,2 GHz QuadCore E-Series, a 1,6 GHz Nano X2 dual-core processor or a fanless 1,0 GHz Eden X2 dual-core processor. Featuring a rich I/O set, the board is well suited for a wide range of embedded applications including ATM, kiosks, POS, digital signage, healthcare and digital media applications.

Rear panel I/O includes dual Gigabit LAN ports, PS/2 support, one HDMI port, a VGA port, two RS-232 5 V/12 V selectable COM ports, four USB 2.0 ports and audio jacks. Onboard pin headers provide two x 24-bit LVDS support (including backlight control), two SATA ports, an additional six COM ports, a further four USB ports, digital I/O and a PCIe x4 slot. The VIA EPIA-M910 is available with support for either ATX or DC-in power supplies.
