SBC maintains the link with ISAbus

Axiomtek has released a cost-effective single board computer (SBC), the SBC81202, which supports mainstream LGA775-pin Intel Pentium D, Intel Pentium 4 and Intel Celeron D processors, with a 533/800MHz front side bus (FSB), and features an Intel 865G+ICH*5 chipset. Using the most recent Intel processing technology, the SBC81202 delivers high performance and effective computing power, and is perfect for industrial and network application environments. System integrators and software developers are able to select this most appropriate platform for their systems based on bandwidth, video, Ethernet communications and audio requirements.

The SBC81202 provides the best stability and avoids thermal issues when using Intel Prescott processors.

Intel 865G chipset built-in Intel Extreme Graphics 2 VGA core which providing the excellent 2/3D graphics performance, and the board has a maximum video memory of up to 64Mbyte, which is shared by the system memory.

Dual SATA channels support facilitates high-speed storage with up to 150Mbyte/s transfer rate.

Two 184-pin DDR DIMM sockets on the SBC81202 have memory up to 2Gbyte, and dual segments with non-ECC memory increasing bandwidth and improving overall system performance.

Moreover, the SBC81202 has a built in ITE8888G PCI to ISA bridge for full ISA functionality.

Networking connectivity is provided by a standard 10/100/1000Mbit/s Ethernet for faster networking access.

Four high-speed USB 2.0 peripherals ensure the flexibility and performance of demanding computing needs.

The SBC81202 is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP Embedded and Windows 2000 operating systems, as well as Linux.

'Wide range software compatibility allows developers quickly and easily bring devices to market', said Nelson Lu, Product Manager of Axiomtek's Industrial PC Division.

'With the Intel dual-core processing technology, the SBC81202 delivers higher performance and more effective computing power over previous single board computers (SBCs)'.

'It is a perfect ideal for industrial application environments'.

Other features include hardware monitoring, watchdog timer and serial RS232 Interface.

The product will be available around the end of August, 2006.
