Embedded PC for rugged applications

The new Tiny-LX embedded PC from Advanced Micro Peripherals puts Pentium-class performance into challenging environments, using the industry standard 3.7x4.0in PCI-104 form factor. The onboard 500MHz AMD Geode LX800 CPU features low-power fan-less operation, even in extended temperatures to +85?C. The board can also be supplied with conformal coating for high-humidity applications.

The new Tiny-LX embedded PC from 1039 Advanced Micro Peripherals puts Pentium-class performance into challenging environments, using the industry standard 3.7x4.0in PCI-104 form factor. The onboard 500MHz AMD Geode LX800 CPU features low-power fan-less operation, even in extended temperatures to +85?C. The board can also be supplied with conformal coating for high-humidity applications.

The Tiny-LX is fully compatible with Windows-XP/CE/XP-Embedded, Linux and a wide range of embedded real-time operating systems including VxWorks and QNX Neutrino. The board features a fast 10/100MBit Ethernet controller for efficient LAN communications. The integrated display controller can drive analogue VGA and TTL digital flat panel TFT displays simultaneously, with a wide range of display resolutions. The device also features an integrated audio codec with stereo inputs and outputs. Standard peripheral controllers for discs, keyboard, mouse, serial and USB ports are provided. The board operates from a single +5v supply. The high-performance 32-bit PCI expansion bus provides a high-bandwidth interface to video encoders, frame grabbers, FireWire interfaces and additional video graphics and overlay controllers.

Applications include thin server/client applications, video IP streamers, video surveillance and digital video recorders, vehicle/airborne-embedded controllers, medical instrumentation, portable test equipment and industrial automation.
