The IPC-644 MicroBox IPC chassis is an ultra-compact 4-slot
mini-node chassis that is ideal for embedded applications. Its

equally suitable.

between a 4 ISA backplane, or a 1 ISA / 2 PCI / 1 NLX back-
plane, both of which can hold up to 4 half-size cards. As for
power supply, the IPC-644 can either run on 110/220 V auto-
switching 80 W AC, or on a 24/48 V
A drive bay located at the front of the IPC-644 accommodates
one 3.5" floppy drive and one 3.5" hard drive. The front panel
is equipped with a power reset switch and facilitates easy
diagnostics. Other features include two reserved 9/25-pin I/O
