DTI Introduces Multi-Processing SBC Delivering 800MHz Front Side Bus to Industrial Computing


LBC9326 Single Board Computer delivers higher performance based on Intel. Xeon processors and Intel. E7520 chipset

RIDGELAND, MS - November 3, 2004 - Diversified Technology, Inc. announced today the release of the LBC9326 Single Board Computer for communications, government and commercial markets. The LBC9326 is based on the Intel E7520 Chipset and utilizes the Low Voltage Intel Xeon Processor 2.8GHz with 800MHz System Bus.

"The LBC9326 product development is reflective of DTI's commitment to next generation processing for the single board computer installed base. With literally thousands of Intel architecture based single board computers deployed in applications from automated industrial control to ruggedized computing in the battlefield, DTI provides an upgrade path for customers requiring faster processing and bus speeds in the legacy footprint," commented Steve Given, DTI's VP of Engineering.

"Using the Low Voltage Intel Xeon processor with 800 MHz System Bus along with the Intel E7520 chipset, companies can deliver high performance solutions with lower thermal design power for the embedded and industrial computing market segments," said Doug Davis, vice president, Intel Communications Group, general manager, Infrastructure Processor Division, Intel Corporation. "With the LBC9326, Diversified Technology is adding to its portfolio of solutions based on Intel products that provide flexibility and scalability to the industrial computer market segment."

About the LBC9326

The LBC9326 industrial single board computer features Intel Xeon or Low Voltage Intel Xeon processors with 800MHz System Bus, 1MB L2 cache, Symmetric Multi-Processing 1.4 compliant, and up to 8GB dual channel, DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs, with full ECC support, on two sockets. Onboard are two 10 Base-T/100 Base-TX/1000 Base-TX Ethernet auto-negotiating controllers, dual channel Serial ATA support, as well as four Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports, serial/parallel ports, floppy interface, a PCI SVGA CRT and flat-panel controller with 8 MB of SDRAM memory.

The LBC9326 uses the Intel E7520 chipset, providing 2 x 1 PCI Express Links. The Intel 6300ESB I/O Controller Hub (ICH) provides two PCI busses for added support. The 32-bit/33MHz onboard PCI bus links the Video controller, while the other 64-bit/66MHz PCI bus is routed to the backplane and supports up to two 64-bit/66MHz or four 64-bit/33MHz PCI I/O expansion slots. The Intel 6300ESB ICH also supports USB, Serial ATA at speeds up to 150MB/s, and an LPC bus linking to an SMSC LPC47B272 Super I/O that provides legacy PC-AT I/O. ISA support for 8-bit cards is also available.

Availability and Pricing

Production shipments begin in Q1/2005. Development units will be available through DTI's beta program in December 2004.
