Launch ETX CPU Module with Intel Core Duo CPU - EmETX-i945M

EmXTX-i9150

ARBOR Tech., a leading provider of embedded and networking computing, is going to launch EmETX-i945M, ETX CPU module, supporting Intel Core Duo/Core 2 Duo processor and Intel 945GME/ICH7M chipset. With dual-core processor technology, EmETX-i945M will easily handle multitasking situations and provide the most powerful computing capability and reliability for customers who are seeking increased computing, lower power consumption and a longer product lifespan. ARBOR's EmETX-i945M, the high-end ETX CPU module for embedded designs requiring PCI, ISA, SATA and USB 2.0 interfaces, further expands ARBOR's ETX CPU module product line.

EmETX-i945M delivers superior integrated graphics performance with the Intel 945GME's Graphics Media Accelerator 950. The GMA 950 graphics core supports dual display, CRT and LVDS. Onboard DDRII SO-DIMM socket has a maximum memory capacity of 2GB. Additionally, EmETX-i945M is equipped with all required interfaces including four PCI slots, ISA slot, two SATAII, four USB 2.0 ports, two serial ports, parallel port, high speed 10/100 Ethernet LAN, ATA, KB/MS, AC97 Audio and Watchdog Timer. EmETX-i945M has all the necessary features and expansion capability in compact dimensions and possesses high-performance data acquisition and control interfaces and advanced graphic capability, which makes it ideal for applications where space is limited but multiple I/O configurations are needed. After the launch of EmETX-i945M, it will be the best solution for transportation, communication, industrial automation, medical, POS/POI, military, defense, gaming, test instrument and a host of other applications.

EmETX-i945M is RoHS compliant and supports many mainstream operation systems, such as Windows 2000/CE and Linux. EmETX-i945M introduces two Serial ATA devices without changing any of the given ETX pins and ensures long-term support for the vast number of embedded application solutions based on those already highly integrated COMs. Adopting ARBOR's EmETX-i945M ensures long-term support of ETX, and OEM customers do not have to make even the smallest change on existing carrier board designs. By using the ETX module, hardware design time and cost is minimized and your attention can be focused on parts of the system unique to your application. ARBOR's ETX module plus carrier board represent a more cost-effective replacement versus time and resource-hungry full custom designs. Time to market is dramatically reduced and future upgrades are simple. For further information, please contact our sales representatives or email to info@arbor.com.tw.
