The tiny form factors of VIA mainboards are designed to inspire system innovation, with Mini-ITX mainboards measuring 17 cm x 17 cm, Nano-ITX mainboards only 12 cm x 12 cm and new Pico-ITX mainboards a tiny 10 cm x 7,2 cm.
All VIA mainboards are based on the industry-standard x86 architecture and feature a complete platform of VIA silicon, including an embedded VIA processor, advanced digital media core logic chipset, and a host of connectivity, multimedia and storage options, and are compatible with leading operating systems. VIA mainboards are available as the EPIA range that are designed to offer rich functionality, reliable performance and long product life, and the VIA VB-series, which balance performance and functionality to provide a value solution.
The EPIA PX mainboard is the first commercial mainboard based on VIA's Pico-ITX form factor measuring just 10 cm x 7,2 cm. Designed to enable x86 to be built into embedded systems where it was previously impractical for space reasons, the EPIA PX provides a full complement of multimedia and connectivity options on a platform smaller than any standard mainboard or x86 system-on-module.
Powered by the 1 GHz VIA C7 processor and supporting up to 1 GB of DDR2 533 SO-DIMM system memory, the 10-layer EPIA PX mainboard is based on the single-chip VIA CX700 system media processor, which boasts the VIA UniChrome Pro II IGP 3D/2D graphics core, MPEG-2/-4 and WMV9 hardware decoding acceleration and display flexibility. The onboard VIA VT1708A HD audio codec also contributes a rich entertainment experience.
This highly power-efficient board runs standard productivity and multimedia applications at under 13 watts, thanks to the combination of VIA's energy efficient processor and core logic platform and the significantly lower power DDR2 system memory. The EPIA PX Pico-ITX mainboard also supports flexible hard drive storage options, with one SATA and one UltraDMA 133 connector, as well as 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet through the RJ-45 LAN port, an LVDS/DVI connector and extensive connectivity options including USB 2.0, COM and PS/2. A multimedia connector supports external TV-out, video capture port interface and LPC interface (an add-on card is required), while an audio connector supports line-out, line-in, mic-in, S/PDIF in and 7.1 channel audio output.
