Page 5: Introduction
Smallest Dimensions to meet smallest space requirements. With 252 cm the ePanel-mgx uses only a little more space compared to a current slot CPU, which needs 219 . But the most surprising fact is the module height. The ePanel-mgx measures only 10 mm! How about the ISA bus? The only way to extend the capabilities of the board is to plug in PC-Cards. -
