PLCs, DCSs & Controllers
The AIMB-742 industrial grade motherboard, available from ProMicro, is designed with the Intel 865G chipset, which supports the Intel Pentium 4 Prescott processor with 400/533/800 MHz FSB (front side bus). The industrial grade motherboard is built on Intel's 90-nanometer production technology, which enhances the multitasking capabilities of hyper-threading (HT) technology and a larger 1 MB Level 2 (L2) cache. AIMB-742 is a powerful computing platform with advanced I/O features to satisfy any demanding industrial and network application.
AIMB-742 supports up to two SerialATA devices and dual channel DDR 400 SDRAM. It has an onboard AGP 8X graphic controller, eight USB 2.0 ports and supports 10/100Base-T Ethernet or 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet. Its CMOS automatic backup and restore feature prevents accidental data loss of the BIOS set-up.
The industrial grade motherboard is compatible with other 1U, 2U, 4U, 5U and 7U chassis in the series. It is 304,8 x 228,6 mm in dimensions and has an onboard watchdog timer.

Michael Brown Control Engineering
Editor's Choice PLCs, DCSs & Controllers
Many process engineers do not appreciate the importance of flow loops in their unit controls. A senior process engineer once told me that flow loops need not be tuned well, as they generally have little effect on the more important and much slower loops like temperatures and pressures.
