Single-board computer uses latest Intel technology

March 2006 PLCs, DCSs & Controllers Integrated Solutions Infrastructure

Advantech has launched new generation Intel Pentium 4 processor-based industrial full-sized single board computers, the PCA-6190 series, featuring Intel's LGA775 architecture solution and PCI Express technology. Incorporating Intel's 915GV chipset, the PCA-6190 delivers a powerful computing engine up to 3,8 GHz and supports high capacity dual channel DDRII 400/533 memory.

High performance I/O capabilities such as dual PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet, four Serial-ATA devices, and eight USB ports provide advanced throughput. It is also equipped with a VGA port and an optional DVI connector to support dual display. These advanced features make the PCA-6190 an ideal solution for data intensive business, multimedia, and gaming applications.

Designed for optimal platform performance, the PCA-6190 single board computer supports Intel's new LGA775 socket for Pentium 4 and Celeron D processor speeds of up to 3,8/3,06 GHz and a Front Size Bus of 800 MHz. PCA-6190 is built on Intel's long-life 915GV architecture with hyper-threading (HT) technology which enables multithreaded software applications to execute threads in parallel, which greatly boosts performance.

The PCA-6190 offers a maximum memory capacity of 4 GB of dual channel DDRII 400/533 SDRAM, which allows greater memory bandwidth up to 8,5 GBps. It also features up to 2 MB of L2 cache.
