2 PCM-5820 Series User's Manual
1.1 Introduction
The PCM-5820 Series is the ultimate cost-effective solution for
limited space applications. It offers all the functions of an
AT-compatible industrial computer on a single board and only
occupies the space of a 3½" hard drive. The PCM-5820/5820L
comes with an embedded high-performance GXM-233 processor
on-board. The PCM-5820E and PCM-5822 come with a low
power GXM-200 processor on-board. For maximum performance,
the PCM-5820 Series also support an SDRAM SODIMM socket
that can accept up to 128 MB memory.
On-board features include an Ethernet interface, audio interface,
socket for Compact Flash Card, Enhanced IDE interface with up to
Ultra DMA transfer protocol, one parallel port, two serial ports
(RS-232 and RS-232/422/485) with DB-9 connector as COM1,
and a mini-DIN PS/2 keyboard/mouse interface. An SVGA/LCD
display controller (LCD, and CRT displays) allows LCD screen
resolutions up to 1024 x 768 and CRT resolutions up to 1280 x
1024 @ 16 colors. Supports LVDS interface (PCM-5820L and
PCM-5820E only) for long distance LCD panel signal transmis-
sion and EMI protection add-ons. Also provided is a TV-out
function (PCM-5822 only) for NTSC and PAL TV format that
supports composite, S-video and SCART (optional) outputs.
The PCM-5820 Series complies with the "Green Function"
standard and supports three types of power saving features:
Normal, Doze, and Sleep modes.
The display type configuration is done through software. A single
Flash chip holds the system BIOS and the VGA BIOS. This
minimizes the number of chips and eases configuration. You can
change the display BIOS simply by programming the Flash chip.
If you need any additional functions, the PCM-5820 Series has a
PC/104 connector for future upgrades.
