The A3pci8024 is a Compact PCI bus-compatible CPU board equipped with Intel® EP80579™.
System on Chip
Intel® EP80579™ is a SoC (System on Chip) that integrates various functions including the memory controller and I/O controller into the CPU core.
The CPU core is a PentiumM™ processor running at 1.066 GHz.
Memory
The A3pci8024 incorporates 2GB of PC2-4200-compatible SO-RDIMM main memory that supports the ECC capable of automatic correction of bit error (one out of 64 bits).
Other Interfaces
Coupled with the Compact PCI that is compatible with the system slot and peripheral slot, this CPU board has four USB2.0 ports, two serial ATA ports.
The A3pci8024 is also equipped with one Gigabit Ethernet port, one USB2.0 port, and one SXGA port on the front panel.
The A3pci8024 is a 3U-sized compact CPU board with a single slot width, which meets demand for a downsizing of the system and space saving.
