Introduction

The PCA-6753F is the ultimate cost-effective solution for limited
space applications. It offers all the functions of an AT-compatible
industrial computer on a single board. The PCA-6753F comes
with an embedded high-performance GXm-200 processor on-
board. For maximum performance, the PCA-6753F also supports
an SDRAM DIMM socket that can accept up to 128 MB memory.
On-board features include an Ethernet interface, a socket for
®
DOC 2000, Enhanced IDE interface with up to 33 MB/s Ultra
DMA transfer protocol, one parallel port, two serial ports (RS-232
and RS-232/422/485) with DB-9 connector as COM1, and a mini-
DIN PS/2 keyboard/mouse interface. An SVGA/LCD display
controller (LCD, and CRT displays) allows LCD screen resolu-
tions up to 1024 x 768 @ 64K colors and CRT resolutions up to
1280 x 1024 @ 256 colors.
The PCA-6753F complies with the "Green Function" standard and
supports three types of power saving features: Normal, Doze and
Sleep modes.
The display type configuration is done through software. A single
Flash chip holds the system BIOS and the VGA BIOS. This
minimizes the number of chips and eases configuration. You can
change the display BIOS simply by programming the Flash chip.
If you need any additional functions, the PCA-6753F has a PC/104
connector for future upgrades.
