Page 5: Introduction
Smallest Dimensions to meet smallest space requirements. With 252 cm the ePanel-C3 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-C3 measures only 21mm! How about the ISA bus? The only way to extend the capabilities of the board is to plug in PC-Cards or Mini-PCI-boards. -

2.2. ePanel-C3 The ePanel-C3 is an extreme compact VIA Eden based PC module with consistent low power design. It is now possible to create modular systems, combining exchangeable CPU performance with systems, carrying only the connectors and additional functions needed. This reduces development costs and speeds up application design. -
