Introduction - Advantech PCM-4825 User Manual

1.1 Introduction

The PCM-4825/4825L 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 and only occu-
pies the space of a 3 1/2" hard drive. The PCM-4825/4825L
comes with an embedded high-performance 5x86 processor and
audio on-board. For maximum performance, the PCM-4825/
4825L also supports an EDO/FPM DRAM SIMM socket that can
accept up to 32 MB memory.
On-board features include a 16-bit audio controller (PCM-4825
only), support for a VL-Bus Enhanced IDE interface with up to
Mode 3 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. A local bus SVGA/
LCD display controller (LCD, EL and CRT displays) allows LCD
screen resolutions up to 1024 x 768 and CRT resolutions up to
1280 x 1024 @ 16 colors.
The PCM-4825/4825L 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 PCM-4825/4825L has a
PC/104 connector for future upgrades.
