1.1 Introduction
Figure 1-1: tKINO-BW
The tKINO-BW series is a Mini-ITX form factor single bard computer. It has an on-board
14nm Intel®Pentium®or Celeron®processor, and supports two 204-pin 1600/1333 MHz
single-channel unbuffered DDR3 Low Voltage (DDR3L) SDRAM SO-DIMM slots with up
to 8.0 GB of memory.
The tKINO-BW series includes a VGA connector, a HDMI/DisplayPort connector and an
18-/24-bit LVDS connector for triple independent display.
Expansion and I/O include one PCIe x1 slot, one PCIe Mini slot supporting mSATA
modules, one PCIe Mini slot for expansion, four USB 3.0 connectors on the rear panel,
two USB 2.0 connectors by pin header and two SATA 6Gb/s connectors. Serial device
connectivity is provided by four internal RS-232 connectors and two internal
RS-232/422/485 connectors. Two RJ-45 GbE connectors provide the system with smooth
connections to an external LAN.
