    SMI. Highly integrated multi-media SBC The GENE-5310 is a highly integrated multi-media SBC that com- bines audio, video, and network functions on a FDD drive size single computer board. It provides an AC-97 audio interface 2.0 version and up to 1024 x 768 resolution @ 16M colors with UMA 8MB SDRAM display memory.

  • Page 12: Lvds Introduction

    LVDS Introduction Low Voltage Differential Signaling is a low noise, low power, low amplitude method for high-speed (gigabits per second) data transmission over copper wire. LVDS differs from normal input/output (I/O) in a few ways: Normal digital I/O works with 5 volts as a high (binary 1) and 0 volts as a low (binary 0). When you use a differential, you add a third option (-5 volts), which provides an extra level with which to encode and results in a higher maximum data tranferrate.
