2SBC-670S User's Manual
Introduction
The SBC-670S is an all-in-one, single board Pentium Pro computer
with an on-board, high performance Ultra-wide SCSI interface. It
packs all the functions of an industrial computer on a single, full-sized
card. The SBC-670S is fully PC/AT compatible, thus your software
will run without modifications.
The Ultra-wide SCSI interface speeds up the transfer rate to 40 MB/
sec and is capable of connecting 15 devices. An 8-bit PCI SCSI-II
interface is available as an option.
Other on-board features include a PCI Enhanced IDE interface, two
RS-232 ports with 16C550 UARTs, one bi-directional parallel port
and a floppy controller.
The SBC-670S' PCI Enhanced IDE interface support (through ATA
PIO) mode 3 and mode 4 hard disks, enabling data transfer rates in
excess of 11 MB/sec. Up to four IDE devices can be connected,
including hard disks, CD-ROM drives, tape backup drives and other
IDE devices.
If program execution is halted by a program bug or EMI, the watch-
dog timer will automatically reset the CPU or generate an interrupt.
This ensures reliability in unmanned or standalone systems.
The SBC-670S supports BEDO, EDO DRAM or Fast page DRAM for
system memory. It provides four 72-pin SIMM (Single In Line
Memory Module) sockets in two banks giving you the flexibility to
configure your system from 8 MB to 128 MB in the most economical
way.
