1.1 Introduction
AAEON new compact size board PCM-6894 targets high-end multimedia
and networking applications. This board is supported by Intel Celeron ,
Pentium III and Tualatin CPUs. Easy upgrading allows full utilization of
Intel Development of even-higher speed CPUs. This is a perfect choice for
embedded applications that require cost-effective high computing power
communications Products whether video, voice, or data convergence over
Internet Protocol network infrastructures.
The PCM-6894 features power management to minimize power
consumption. It complies with the ACPI standard and supports three types
of power-saving features: Doze mode, Standby and Suspend modes. The
board watchdog timer automatically resets the system or generates an
interrupt in case the system stops due to a program bug or EMI.
Onboard SMI Lynx3DM+ 722 display chip with embedded 4or 8MB
SGRAM comes with 128-bit 2D/3D Graphics Engine, built-in TV encoder
for NTSC/PAL support, enhanced multi-display and hardware accelerated
MPEG2/DVD playback. For advanced panel display, SMI Lynx3DM+ adds
an integrated LVDS transmitter
Dual RTL 8139C PCI-bus 10/100Base-Tx Ethernet controllers onboard
provide superior networking access ability. The Ethernet interface and
Sound Blaster-compatible audio opens up worlds of possibilities for kiosks,
gaming systems, POS systems, medical and education markets.
The onboard compact flash will offer a larger memory bank for data storage

of all types. Compact Flash requires a fraction of power used to drive floppy
disk or CD-ROMs, also no battery is required to save the data when the
computer powers down.
PCM-6894 also includes four high-speed serial ports (three RS-232, one
RS-232/422/485), one multimode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port, dual USB
ports, 2 floppy drives, an Ultra DMA/100 Enhanced IDE controller
supporting up to two devices with data transfer rate up to 100MB per
second, and a keyboard/PS/2 mouse interface. This AAEON embedded PC
includes almost everything you need for fast, worry-free embedded PC
performance.
The addition of PCI slot and PC/104 connector will allow a wide selection
of accessory cards to be added to the PCM-6894 such as Ultra Wide 2 SCSI,
fax modem, vehicle power supply, extra DiskOnChip, PCMCIA module,
etc.
