Mini-ITX board supports HDMI

11 November 2009 Computer/Embedded Technology

Advantech has released the AIMB-221 Mini-ITX motherboard with HDMI support. The board is designed around the AMD M690E and SB600 chipsets, and supports AMD Turion and Sempron processors. It features dual display support for HDMI, LVDS panel and CRT (VGA). The integrated ATI Radeon graphics controller offers good 3D graphics performance and full DirectX 9 support. Comprehensive connectivity options include dual GbE LANs.

For enhanced graphics performance, the AIMB-221 supports the AMD Turion 64x2 processor for 64-bit operating systems. For a low-power approach, an AMD Mobile Sempron 2100+ processor running at 1 GHz with low-power architecture suits fanless installations. The high-speed HyperTransport interface bus between the processor and chipset runs at a data rate up to 2 GTps, and supports the new generation of S1g1 processors. Two 200-pin SODIMM sockets can take up to 4 GB of DDR2 533/667 SDRAM.

Expansion capabilities include one PCI and one MINI PCI slot, plus I/O with six serial ports (five RS232, one RS232/422/485), four SATA II, one IDE, eight USB 2.0 and CF Type I/II. Also included are the 8-bit GPIO, watchdog timer, and optional Trusted Platform Module (TPM), for a versatile, small form factor platform. The AIMB-221 supports Windows XP, Vista, Linux, XP-embedded and WinCE 6.0.
