1.1 Introduction
Figure 1-1: WAFER-US15WP2
The WAFER-US15WP2 is a 3.5" SBC with a 1.1 GHz Intel® Atom™ Z510P or 1.6 GHz
Intel® Atom™ Z530P CPU.
The WAFER-US15WP2 is designed for fanless operation. The low power CPUs don't
require active cooling and stay within specified heat range using the included heatsink.
Storage on the board is handled by a SATA port for connecting a hard drive, optical drive
or SSD. The CompactFlash® slot on the underside allows a Type I CompactFlash® card
to be installed.
The board has three graphics outputs. A VGA output connects to a traditional VGA
monitor and two LVDS connectors can be connected to LCD panels.
Other slots and connectors include a PCIe Mini cards slot, RS-232, RS-232/422/485,
Gigabit Ethernet, USB ports, audio input and output, and digital I/O.
1.2 Benefits
Some of the WAFER-US15WP2 motherboard benefits include:
Low power consumption
