Chapter 1 General Information 1-2
1.1 Introduction
The PCM-8300 is AAEON’s latest low power consumption
solution featuring Intel®innovation. It adoptsIntel’s ®latest
Pentium®M chipset-Mobile Intel ®915GM Express Chipset,
which has been validated with Intel®Pentium®M CPUsand the
newest PCI-Express interface. Therefore the PCM-8300’s
peripheral transmission speed can upgrade effectively, especially
on multi-port Gigabit LAN applications. For these kinds of
applications, PCM-8300 has 2 Gigabit LAN ports onboardto
satisfy firewall and small data server demands.
The Greatest Performance on Multimedia applications
For multimedia applications, the Mobile Intel ®915GM Express
Chipset has a HDTV TV-out function built in the chipset. This
feature will be ofgood use in future KIOSK, advertisement, and
information display applications.
Versatile dual view combinations
Besides LCD support, PCM-8300 also allows customer to show
different content on CRT, LCD, DVI or TV (two of them) at the
same time. It meets dual view demands as the most
cost-effective display solution.

Widely Expanded Interfaces
PCM-8300 promises you off-the-shelfexpansion possibilities with
versatile expansion interfaces -Mini PCI, PCI, and PCI-Express
x1. By adopting AAEON’s versatile Mini PCI modules, you can
extend your onboard features such as adding a third LAN port,
sixth or even eighth COM port, and one IEEE 1394a port.
Environment-Friendly applications
The RoHS compliant PCM-8300 is the ideal choice for high
performance and energy-saving demands that must be
implemented with low power consumption and pleasing
multimedia presentation. For environment-friendly applications,
the PCM-8300 no doubt is a perfect fit.

2.1 Safety Precautions
Always completely disconnect the power cord
from your board whenever you are working on
it. Do not make connections while the power is
on, because a sudden rush of power can
damage sensitive electronic components.
Always ground yourself to remove any static
charge before touching the board. Modern
electronic devices are very sensitive to static
electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at
all times. Place all electronic components on a
static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded
bag when they are not in the chassis
