1.4 Warranty
Each board is carefully and thoroughly tested before being shipped. If, however,
problems should occur during the operation, please check your user specific settings of
all boards included in your system. That is often the source of the error. If a board is
defect, it can be sent to your supplier for repair. Please take care of the following steps:
1. The board returned should correspond to the factory default settings since a test is
only possible under these settings.
2. Upon receipt of the board, please be aware that your user specific settings were
changed during the test.
Within the guarantee, the repair is free as long as the guarantee conditions were held. If
no error has been found, you will be charged with the test costs due to the high test
expenditure. Repairs outside of duration of the guarantee will be charged.
This Kontron product is warranted against defects in material and workmanship for our
guaranteed warranty period from the date of shipment. During the warranty period,
Kontron will, at its option, either repair or replace products which prove to be defect.
For warranty service or repair, the product must be returned to a service facility
designated by Kontron.
The foregoing warranty shall not apply to defects resulting from improper or inadequate
maintenance or handling by buyer, unauthorized modification or misuse, operation
outside of the environmental specifications for the product, or improper installation or
maintenance.
Kontron will not be responsible for any defects or damages due to a faulty Kontron
product other than the products supplied by Kontron

DIMM-PC/MD Product Manual Introduction
Kontron® Embedded Modules GmbH 4Revision 1.0
2. INTRODUCTION
2.1 Kontron DIMM-PC-Concept
It is likely that anyone who deals with micro-controller-development, has already thought
of the application of PC-architecture and considered the PC as the engine for an
application. However, most design engineers will get back to the old 87C51 or a similarly
more or less efficient micro-controller. The reasons why the Embedded PC was not yet
able to push away the micro-controllers from the printed boards, are many.
Embedded PCs are mechanically larger than a solution with a micro-controller.
The hardware of an Embedded PC is much more expensive than the micro-controller
solution.
The power consumption of an Embedded PC is usually higher than the one of a micro-
controller circuit.
A lot of times PCs have to be used with ribbon cables which are a possible cause of error.
Micro-controllers are available with a large number of peripheral functions, the PC,
however only has a standard periphery.
On the other hand there are some serious disadvantages of micro-controller solutions.
The software-development is much more complicated and expensive than under a
standard operating system.
Connection to standard-interfaces such as LANs and modems requires complicated driver
software.
Graphical user interfaces can be realized only by large programming efforts.
The development tools are by far not as powerful as PC-programming systems.
Micro-controllers do by far not have as many different PC-SW development tools
available.
This is why the purchase price is usually considerably higher for micro-controller
development tools.
Ready-made software solutions for standard tasks are only available in a very limited
extent.
The specified reasons are only a few of the more common ones, which are important in
deciding whether to implement a micro-controller or to change to PC-architecture.

DIMM-PC/MD Product Manual Introduction
Kontron® Embedded Modules GmbH 5Revision 1.0
It is a matter of fact, that these points are not always estimated objectively. Who knows
for sure at the beginning of a project how much programming efforts will have to be
made for realizing the application? In most cases, this can only be rated afterwards which
means, too late. Also the problematic nature/software care within the course of the
product life-span is often ignored.
If the Embedded PC is to be implemented in today's micro-controller applications, the
advantages of the PC-architecture have to prevail, compared to a micro-controller
solution.
With the DIMM-PC, JUMPtec has aimed at the micro-controller market and has
presented a completely new concept for the Embedded PC-solution.
The DIMM-PC solves the problems of size and cabling. The prices have been drastically
reduced thanks to new technical designs, making the solution of using a DIMM-PC
possible for many applications. The driving of peripheral functions was also made easier
by the expansion towards the ISA-bus-standard.
