16 March 2011 Computer/Embedded Technology

New from Advantech is the AIMB-280, an industrial grade Mini-ITX motherboard supporting the latest Intel Core i7/i5/i3/Pentium processors with LGA 1156 sockets. The Intel 45nm Core i7 and Core i5 700 series processors are quad-core CPUs with integrated memory controllers. The 32 nm Intel Core i5 600 and Core i3 series processors are dual-core with integrated graphics and memory controllers, and Intel HD Graphics with DX10 support.

The board is capable of SATA RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10. It comes with one PCIe x16 expansion slot, two serial ports, eight USB 2.0 ports and four Serial ATA II 300 MBps connectors. The AIMB-280 also comes with software RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 support, and dual PCI Express-based Intel 82578DM and 82583V Gigabit Ethernet ports delivering up to 1000 Mbps of bandwidth. With the graphics engine integrated into the processor, these two-chip solutions provide enhanced graphics performance compared with previous Intel platforms.

Advantech provides drivers and APIs for different operating systems including GPIO, SMBus, watchdog timer, hardware monitor, panel backlight on/off and brightness control. Supported operating systems include Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows XP Embedded, Windows CE and Linux.
