    Introduction MOPSlcdLX MOPSlcdLX SBC modules support the AMD LX800 Embedded System Platform. The MOPSlcdLX is a versatile, low-cost, low-power module that conforms to the industry standard 90mm x 96mm PC/104 form factor. The board’s chipset includes a AMD Geode LX800 CPU and the Companion Chip CS5536.
  • Page 9: Mops Family

    Each MOPS module is characterized by the same pinout for the keyboard, COM1 and COM2, 44-pin IDE, LPT, and 1 LAN. These homogeneous features facilitate easy upgrades within the Kontron Embedded Modules GmbH MOPS PC/104 product family. Whenever a LCD panel is required, MOPS products with onboard graphics controllers serve as the right choice.
