Chapter 1 General Information

1.1 Introduction

The PCA-6005 Series all-in-one industrial grade single board computer is
a high performance and full-featured computing engine. It meets most of
the requirements of industrial applications.
The PCA-6005 supports Intel's Pentium 4 and Socket 478 Celeron pro-
cessor. The CPU provides 256/512 KB on-CPU L2 cache, featuring
Intel's NetBurst. micro-architecture and is capable of delivering maxi-
mum computing power. It has two PCI EIDE interfaces (for up to four
devices) and a floppy disk drive interface (for up to two devices). Other
features include two RS-232 serial ports (16C550 UARTs with 16-byte
FIFO or compatible), one enhanced parallel port (supports EPP/ECP) and
two USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports. The PCI enhanced IDE controller
supports Ultra DMA/33/66/100 providing data transfer rates of 33/66/100
MB/sec. System BIOS supports boot-up from an IDE CD-ROM, SCSI
CD-ROM, LS-120, IDE HDD, SCSI HDD, ZIP-100, LAN, and FDD.
A backup of CMOS data is stored in the Flash memory, which protects
data even after a battery failure. Also included is a 256-level watchdog
timer, which resets the CPU or if a program cannot be executed normally.
This enables reliable operation in unattended environments.
The PCA-6005 Series offers several impressive industrial features such as
chipset built-in VGA (AGP) interface, dual 10/100Base-T networking
controller, dual channel Ultra 160 SCSI, and two 184-pin DIMM slots for
a total of 2 GB DDR SDRAM memory. The remote management inter-
face enables the PCA-6005 to be managed through Ethernet when it is
connected to the SNMP-1000 Remote HTTP/SNMP System Manager.
