Single board computer

Pentium processor-based 6U x 8HP Compact PCI is an all-in-one single
board computer |
The CPV5000 provides standard PC I/O, including USB, PCI EIDE, SCSI-3,
SVGA and fast Ethernet controllers with optional on-card floppy and EIDE
drives, in a cost-saving, slot-saving PICMG-compliant footprint. It uses
the Intel Pentium P54C or P55C (MMX) processors and Intel 430HX PCIset,
with a high efficiency onboard CPU switching regulator, and Digital Equipment's
21150 PCI bridge chip. The CPV5000 is designed to meet the needs of embedded
application developers. Pro-Log Corp,
12 Upper Ragsdale Dr, Monterey, CA 93940. 800-538-9570.
PC-compatible
board. A highly integrated PC-compatible board, the LBC-586Plus, combines
6 important features needed for embedded, industrial applications onto a
5.75- x 8-in. single board computer. These features include a CPU with core
logic functions, video controller with CRT and flat panel support, Ethernet
controller, four serial channels, 48 bi-directional digital I/O lines, and
solid state disk support. WinSystems Inc, 715 Stadium Dr, Arlington,
TX 76011. 817-274-7553.
Wireless
LAN PC card. PC Card radio modules for OEMs of wireless LAN products
are now available. These are designed for easy integration by system designers
and developers who desire a compact, high-performance LAN module that provides
integrated wireless LAN networking support. The card offers 2Mbps throughput
and includes a 2.4 GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum radio and an IEEE802.11
MAC controller. Lucent Technologies, 5 Wood Hollow Rd, Rm 1H61, Parsippany,
NJ 07054. 800-WAVELAN.
Control
server chassis. A Pentium (P6) Quad SMP Server Chassis is 17- x 8.8-
x 24-in and mounts in a NEBS 30-in. wide frame. The equipment is secured
using M10 thread forming screws and is a fully extractable slide-mounted
design. Removal of the P6 top cover by hand fasteners allows access to the
motherboard, memory and card slots. Peripheral bays contain a 1.44 MB floppy
drive, a 3.5-in SCSI disk drive and tape drive. Carlo Gavazzi Inc,
Electronic Packaging, 10 Mupac Dr, Brockton, MA 02401. 508-588-6110.
Single
board computer. Designed as a fully integrated single board computer
and made for industrial specification, the TEK-400 single board computer
is ideal for the OEM hand portable market and is ready for integration into
portable and hand held equipment. It features a 100, 133 or 166 MHz Pentium
processor, 64MB of DRAM, 256KB of synchronous cache, sound blaster compatibility,
as well as four serial ports and one parallel port. Teknor Industrial
