1.1 Introduction
New BOX PC, AES-6000B gives the ready and high-performance total
solution. Designed as a fanless and no cable inside computer, it erases the
traditional idea of computer structure. Its upper and side of chassis are made
from aluminum and have fins that improves heat dissipation. An I/O board
is especially designed to replace wires and cables for connections.
With this book-size computer, 7.52” x 1.99” x 4.15”, AES-6000B performs
at VIA Eden 400MHz level processor. Its system memory can be extended
to sufficient 512MB bandwidth via one SDRAM SODIMM. Powered by
VIA ProSavagePN133 chipset, rich 2D/3D graphic display is supported.
Dual channel LVDS interface enhances the LCD presentation quality up to
1024 x 768 colors.
AES-6000B is a great solution for mobile device application. For example,
consumer multimedia in-car computer, police vehicle computer, mobile
medical machines and etc. Featured in mobile, reliability and high
performance, this BOX PC plays as the outstanding medium for various
industrial applications.
