IBM SBC-659P Personal Computer User Manual


 
2 SBC-659P User Manual
If your requirements for a single board computer consist of a half-sized
footprint, dual Ethernet, PISA interface and Intel quality logic chipset,
then SBC-659P is the solution. This half-sized single board computer is
ideal for internet data access server.
The dual Ethernet socket ensures consistent high server throughput
and transparent backup connections in corporate servers. Two RJ-45
connectors controlled by two Intel 82559GD chipsets offering 10/
100Base Ethernet interface.
The processors used on this single board computer may vary, however
to acquire the full potential of this embedded computer we suggest
Intel Celeron 533~766MHz or Pentium III offering 300~766MHz (With
system bus frequencies of 66 MHz), Celeron 800MHz-1.2GHz or
Pentium III 500-900MHz(With system bus frequencies of 100MHz), or
Pentium III 533MHz-1.26GHz (With system bus frequencies of
133MHz)and Tualatin CPU up to 1.26GHz . We strongly recommand
using thermal grease when you add on an over 1GHz processors.The
logic chipset onboard is entirely Intel, controlling the LCD, LAN and
audio functions.
This half-sized board features an audio interface, supporting micro-
phone in, line in/out, and CD in capabilities. Codec job tasking are
performed by ALC 200 chip. The VGA has a display memory size of
4MB, supporting non-interlaced CRT and up to 18/24/36/48-bit LCD
through panel link or LVDS module.
On the solder side we offer a 144-pin SODIMM socket providing a
maximum of 256MB of memory. A compact flash connector is provided
onboard. For expansion modules a PC/104 connector is integrated into
this half-sized card.
SBC-659P supports one IDE channel, dual floppy disk, four USB ports
onboard, two RS-232 serial ports and of which one can be configured
as RS-232/422/485. The single bi-directional parallel ports can support
SPP, ECP and EPP modes. The standard AT/ATXpower connector
enables this half sized SBC to be operated without a backplane if
necessary.
