Caution!
Achtung!
This device complies with the requirements in part
15 of the FCC rules: Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions:
1.This device may not cause harmful interference,
and
2.This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation
This equipment has been tested and found to com-
ply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursu-
ant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is oper-
ated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of
this device in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at his/her own
expense. The user is advised that any equipment
changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance would void
the compliance to FCC regulations and therefore,
the user's authority to operate the equipment.
There is a danger of a new battery exploding if it is
incorrectly installed. Do not attempt to recharge,
force open, or heat the battery. Replace the battery
only with the same or equivalent type recom-
mended by the manufacturer. Discard used batter-
ies according to the manufacturer’s instructions

General Information
This chapter gives background infor-
mation on the PCM-4386.
Sections include:
• Introduction
• Features
• Specifications
• Board layout and dimensions

PCM-4386 User Manual 2
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Introduction
The PCM-4386 is a 4” SBC (Single Board Computing) with a high per-
formance and lower power based on Celeron M processors.
The PCM-4386, in conjunction with Intel 852/855 GM/GME chipset,
supports processors clocked at up to 1GHz, six USB 2.0 compatible ports,
2 PCI Fast or Gigabit Ethernet interface, 2 Channel LVDS interface, and
one MIO expansion connector, and accommodate up to 1GB of ECC
DDR RAM memory.
SpeedStep (EIST) technology is another one of the important features for
PCM-4386 which can save energy and ensure longer battery life, since it
allows the operating system to reduce the processor clock speed when
there is not much work to be done.
