1.1 Introduction
EMB-830 is the world’s first Pentium 4 industrial board in embedded
ATX form factor. It features a PGA478 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 low-profile design, meanwhile it
supports 6USB2.0, mini PCI, and PCMCIA (optional item) slots.
EMB-830 promises you the greatest expansion possibilities with the
most cost-effective expansion standards, PCMCIA or Mini PCI. With
numerous off-the-shelf PCMCIA/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.
More
EMB-830 provides 10/100Base-TFast Ethernet ports as standard.
But for high-speed market, there is another option for you. You can
choose to have one 10/100 Base-T Fast Ethernet and one Gigabit
Ethernet. Talking about the display signal transmission, EMB-830
integrated dual channel LVDS interface onboard, which allows long
distance display signal transmission.

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
