1.1 Introduction
EM-568 offers multi computing power options. VIA Eden-533MHz is designed especially for fan-less
requirement to enable better MTBF. As an x86 architecture, the platform supports prevail operating
systems such as Windows 95/98SE/XP/2000/NT and Linux. Your previous investment on these operating
systems is, thus, protected in the following 4 years. With 64KB internal L2 cache integrated in the CPU,
your applications are able to benefit more execution speed from this mechanism.
VIA Twister-T chipset supports 2D/3D Video Accelerator by integrating S3 Pro Savage 4. It also supports
36-bit TTL LCD and 2 channels (2x18-bit) LVDS. EM-568 is able to compatible with the most coming
bigger size industrial and commercial LCDs. By enabling VRAM, the system can further cut its cost and
while maintains its speed. EM-568 uses SODIMM to limit its board height and supports PC 133/PC 100.
There are two storage options in EM-568 design. One is EIDE, and the other one is CF II. EIDE supports
four IDE devices. EM-568 offers 2 IDE box header to fulfill flexible hard disk placement in system design.
Regarding to CF II socket, system can further cut its whole size when using popular large volume CF II
form factor SSD.
EM-568 embodies the following I/O: 1 x LAN, 1 x FDD, 4 x COM, 1 x LPT, Keyboard & Mouse, 4 x USB, 1
x IrDA and 4 x DIO. Expansion slots include PC/104 and PCI. Power supply complies with AT and ATX.
Watchdog timer is 16-level.
As an industrial PC embedded board, EM-568's operating temperature is ranging from 0°C to 60°C. All
these numerous features provide an ideal price/performance solution for commercial and industrial
applications where stability and reliability are essential.
