Evalue Launches Fanless 1 GHz 3.5 Inch Mini Board



Evalue launches the new ECM-3612 single board computer which is specifically designed for low profile, fanless applications. The compact 3.5" embedded micro board incorporates a passively cooled, low power VIA Eden 1 GHz / 667 MHz processor, along with 128 MB SDRAM onboard. By integrating the CPU and memory onboard, ECM-3612 significantly reduces the system's total cost; furthermore, this also prevents the components from loosening under heavy vibration, and enhances the system's reliability.

The VIA ESP10K processor consumes 7 watts of power only and eliminates the needs to employ CPU fan in a system. Along with integrated 2D/3D graphics, Audio, LAN and four serial ports, these combinations provide a processor-intensive solution for demanding applications in industrial automation, POS, transportations and embedded controller.

Its VGA function with up to 32 MB of shared memory is built-in to the VIA VT8606 TwisterT chipset that is capable of simultaneously displaying on CRT monitors and 18-bit dual channel LVDS LCD panels. Onboard AC'97 Codec sound chip provides a stereo, full duplex multimedia environment, while integrated Realtek RTL8101L chipset offers 10/100 Base TX fast Ethernet function.

Additionally, this board shares similar component placement and functionality with ECM-3610, thus offering a smooth transition opportunity for the current users of ECM-3610.

ECM-3612 contains a rich mix of I/O functions which includes two USB 1.1 ports, dual Enhanced IDE ports, one FDD interface, four serial ports, one parallel port and one IrDA port. Additional hardware can be utilized via onboard PC/104 expansion slot, while a CompactFlash socket is available for optional storage configuration.

It runs Windows CE.NET, Windows XP Embedded, Linux and other x86-compatible operating systems such as VxWorks and QNX. With its small-footprint and low power design, ECM-3612 serves as a cost-effective solution for a number of industrial and commercial applications such as Panel PC, POS, KIOSK and thin client.
