Introduction
Welcome to the POS-566/566L 550MHz K6®-3 / Pentium
Processor Multimedia POS Control Board Computer. The POS-
566/566L board is a LPX Spec. board, which equipped with high
performance Pentium®CPU, LCD/CRT and 10/100Mbps Ethernet,
designed for the system manufacturers, integrators, or VARs that
want to provide all the performance, reliability, and quality at a
reasonable price.
This board has a built-in DiskOnChip™(DOC) Flash Disk Socket
for embedded application. The DOC Flash Disk is 100% software
compatible to hard disk. User can use any DOS command without
any extra software utility. The DOC currently is available from 2MB
to 144MB.
The POS-566/566L provides three 168-pin DIMM sockets for its
on-board DRAM with max. 768MB. DIMM module is 3.3V SDRAM.
The board’s Realtek RTL8139 IEEE 802.u network chipset
provides 10MBps or 100MBps Ethernet with auto-sensing function.
In addition, the POS-566 is also Creative Sound Blaster 16 and
Roland MPU401 UART Mode compatible. This feature is not
available in POS-566L.
With its Isolated Digital I/O control for field site application, this
POS-566/566L is the most advanced POS solution that supports
up to 550MHz processor.
