Quiet miniature PC without fan has many interfaces

3 November 2004 Computer/Embedded Technology

Digital-Logic's Microspace-PC40B (MPC-40B), a small-sized computer with a remarkably large number of interfaces, has protection class 50 and needs no cooling fan for many professional applications. The MPC40B is based on the Intel Pentium M 738 processor with 1,4 GHz, L2 cache and 400 MHz FSB.

The power-saving function of the processor provides a dynamic CPU-clock adaptation to the application. In the slowest mode the CPU works with 600 MHz, and the system consumes a typical power of 35 W. The video controller has two different video outputs to feed two different monitors, one VGA (CRT) and one DVI. The main memory is 512 MB DDR RAM which may be expanded to a maximum of 1 GB.

The MPC40 offers the following interfaces: five high-speed USB V2.0 ports, a COM1, LPT1, two IEEE-1394 (firewire) interfaces, a LAN 100/10-Base-T port, three stereo sound outputs (six channels), an SPDif digital sound output with six channels, one stereo input, and a MiniPCI extension slot to plug in LAN- or other PCI extensions. Additional supported functions are remote ON/OFF and an optional internal WLAN with an antenna on the back of the device.

As mass storage a 2,5" hard disk with a storage capacity of 20 GB (max 80 GB) and a CD-RW/DVD-R drive are used. The MPC40B is supplied by 10 V to 30 V.
