Pico-ITX computing board

22 August 2012 Computer/Embedded Technology

Based on the ultra compact Pico-ITX form factor, measuring 10 x 7,2 cm, VIA Technologies’ new VAB-800 combines the choice of an 800 MHz or a 1 GHz Freescale ARM Cortex-A8 processor with two independent, fully integrated GPUs for a power efficient platform with a maximum TDP of just 5 W.

The two integrated GPUs provide support for dual independent displays along with 3D/2D graphics acceleration to deliver full HD playback support for the most demanding video formats in resolutions up to 1080p.

Rear I/O includes one Mini HDMI and one VGA display port, two USB ports and one 10/100 Ethernet port. Onboard features include up to 64 GB eMMC Flash memory, 1 GB DDR3 SDRAM, support for one SATA port, two single-channel LVDS display ports, two COM ports, CAN bus, front pin headers for line-in/out and MIC-in, a further two USB 2.0 ports, an SDIO pin header and eight GPIOs.

Customers can take advantage of VIA’s worldwide embedded software development expertise to quickly create customised designs. This is available as a hardware starter kit with board support packages (BSPs) for the Android, Ubuntu and Windows Embedded Compact 7 operating systems.
