Ampro Computers has used the new Intel Pentium M processor low voltage (LV) 738, the Pentium M 1,10 GHz and ultra low voltage (ULV) Intel Celeron M processor 600 MHz in the PC/104, EBX, EPIC, and ETX form factors.
These processors have the lowest thermal design rating of the Intel Pentium and Celeron processors with embedded life cycle support. This makes them ideal for use in fanless and rugged embedded applications requiring extended operating temperatures. Ampro's platform design approach has enabled the company to feature the processors in four new products - LittleBoard 800, ReadyBoard 800, CoreModule 800, and Ampro ETX 800.
Ampro's platform design, known as Longhorn, is based on the Intel Pentium M processors and features a 400 MHz front side bus, the Intel 855GME chipset with integrated Intel Extreme Graphics 2 technology, LVDS flat panel interface, USB 2.0 for high-speed peripheral connectivity, Gigabit Ethernet, and high performance DDR memory.
A critical piece of the architecture is support for the hundreds of commercially-available PC/104 (ISA bus) modules, which Ampro solved by using a PCI-to-ISA bridge chip that supports the full ISA address space used by many commercial and custom PC/104 modules. PC/104 support is included on the LittleBoard 800 SBC, and is provided by Ampro's optional MiniModule ISA product for ReadyBoard 800 and CoreModule 800. This approach allows the continued use of PC/104 modules where needed, while saving money for applications not using the PC/104 bus.
Other embedded features include RS422/485 serial ports, eight general-purpose I/Os (GPIOs), PC/104-Plus expansion for stackable low profile systems, 5V only power supply requirement, configurable interrupts, watchdog timer, thermal monitoring, low voltage detection, battery-free boot, and serial console.
