Low power fanless SBC with ATA100

23 April 2003 Computer/Embedded Technology

Advantech's new 3,5" SBC offering, the PCM-9372, uses the embedded low power VIA Eden processor. It can operate without a fan at temperatures up to 60°C and typically consumes under 12 W while supporting numerous peripherals. Two EIDE devices and two FDDs are supported, with primary IDE capacity an ATA100.

The PCM-9372 uses the VIA Twister chipset with Integrated Savage4 2D/3D/Video Accelerator which supports 4X AGP VGA/LCD interface, DVD playback and up to 32 MB frame buffer using system memory. The board supports 3D audio and complies with the AC97 standard. A PCI Ethernet interface, and 2-channel LVDS interface are also included. The PCM-9372 design is based on the 3,5" SBC form factor, and supports the PC/104 interface for ISA module upgrades.

Other on-board features include an LPT, 2 USBs, and 2 serial ports: 1 RS232, and 1 RS232/422/485. The SSD solution supports CompactFlash cards Type I and Type II.

The board is effective for use as an embedded controller, through its ability to add additional custom control cards to its fast PC/104 socket. The PCM-9372's powerful, fanless processor choices and solid system chipset make it a perfect core technology for controllers, medical equipment, kiosks, and other long life applications.
