Advantech PCA-6166E - Super 7 / 100 MHz FSB-based PCI/ISA-bus full-size CPU card with HISA/VGA(AGP)/LAN Simple Type: CPU Board

The PCA-6166 Series all-in-one industrial grade CPU card can use the Intel Pentium MMX, AMD K6-2 or K6-3 processors. It also uses the SiS530 AGP chipset. The card works with standard ISA or PCI/ISA-bus passive backplanes. The CPU provides 1 MB L2 cache on board. It has two PCI EIDE interfaces (for up to four devices) and a floppy disk drive interface (for up to two devices). Other features include two RS-232 serial ports (16C550 UARTs with 16-byte FIFO or compatible), one enhanced parallel port (supports SPP/EPP/ECP) and one USB (Universal Serial Bus) port.The PCI enhanced IDE controller supports Ultra DMA/33/66 and PIO Mode 4 operation. This provides data transfer rates of over 66 MB/sec. System BIOS supports boot-up from an IDE CD-ROM, SCSI CD-ROM, ZIP, and LS-120. A backup of CMOS data is stored in the Flash memory, which protects data even after a battery failure. Also included is a 63-level watchdog timer, which resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if a program cannot be executed normally. This enables reliable operation in unattended environments. The PCA-6166 series offers several impressive industrial features such as a built-in VGA (AGP), a PCI Ultra2 SCSI controller, a 10/100Base-T networking controller, three DIMM slots for a total of 384 MB RAM memory, and an ISA High Drive. In addition, the PCA-6166 series supports a solid state disk (SSD) using M-Systems Corporation's DiskOnChip 2000 Flash disk, for up to 144 MB of non-volatile, reliable memory that is not vulnerable to the hazards of an industrial computing environment. All these make it an ideal choice for applications that require both high performance and full functionality.
