1.1 Introduction
EMB-830 is the world’s first Pentium 4 industrial board in
embedded ATX form factor. It features a PGA 478 socket that
can accommodate Pentium 4 supporting FSB up to
400/533MHz.
Best performance for multimedia solution
AAEON’s EMB-830 also supports DDR DRAM up to 2.0Gbyte,
4X AGP, and 6 channels audio output. It can provide the strong
multimedia functions. Therefore EMB-830 can be broadly
implemented in several markets, such as Point of sale, point of
information (Kiosk), and gaming markets.
Slim form factor
If you are looking for a slim board for space-constrained
applications, EMB-830 is the one. EMB-830 is a low-profile
design, meanwhile it supports 6 USB2.0, mini PCI slots.
EMB-830 promises you the greatest expansion possibilities
with the most cost-effective expansion standards. With
numerous off-the-shelf Mini PCI modules, you get easy access
to solutions ranging from IEEE 1394, Modem, Storage, Sound
Card, SCSI card, Audio/Video capture card, Wireless LAN
module, to Bluetooth module. Especially for customers whose
application is various or changing, EMB-830 reserves more
than enough flexibility for future expansion.
EMB-830 provides 10/100Base-TX Fast Ethernet port as
standard. Talking about the display signal transmission,
EMB-830 integrated dual channel LVDS interface onboard,
which allows long distance display signal transmission.
