1.1 Introduction
If your requirements for a single board computer consist of a half-sized
footprint, dual Ethernet, pure PCI interface and Intel quality logic chipset,
then SBC-659 is the solution. This half-sized single board computer is
ideal for Internet data access server.
The dual Ethernet socket ensures consistent high server throughput and
transparent backup connections in corporate servers. Two RJ-45
connectors controlled by two separate chipsets, Intel 815E and Intel
82559GD both offering 10/100Base Ethernet interface.
The processors used on this single board computer may vary, however to
acquire the full potential of this embedded computer we suggest Intel
Celeron or Pentium III offering 300~766MHz (With system bus frequencies
of 66 MHz), 450-850 MHz (With system bus frequencies of 100MHz), or
533-1.4 GHz (With system bus frequencies of 133MHz). But the board
cannot support 0.25u CPU. The logic chipset onboard is entirely Intel,
controlling the LCD, LAN and audio functions.
This half-sized board features our first built in audio interface, supporting
microphone in, line in/out, speaker out and CD in capabilities. Codec job
tasking are performed by ALC 200 chip. The VGA has a display memory
size of 4MB, supporting non-interlaced CRT and up to 18/36-bit LCD
through DVI/DVO module.
On the solder side we offer a 144-pin SODIMM socket providing a
maximum of 256MB of memory. A compact flash connector is provided

onboard. For expansion modules a PCI-104 connector is integrated into
this half-sized card.
SBC-659 supports one IDE devise, dual floppy disk, four USB ports
onboard, two RS-232 serial ports and of which one can be configured as
RS-232/422/485. The single bi-directional parallel ports can support SPP,
ECP and EPP modes. The standard ATX power connector enables this
half sized SBC to be operated without a backplane if necessary.

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 astatic-shielded bag when they are not
in the chassis
