1.02 HOW THE BOARD CAN BE USED
The VIPer807 board is a multi-purpose computer board:
•
The VIPer807 can be used as a single board computer in conjunction with a passive
backplane. Power is drawn directly from the AT bus.
•
The VIPer807 can be used as part of a stand-alone system with no backplane. The board
has its own power connector, through which power can be drawn. The board has a PC/104
expansion header which accepts any PC/104 mezzanine card. The VIPer807 can also
operate without any user interface.
•
The VIPer807 can also operate without any mechanical drives by performing disk
operations on solid state disks (user Flash EPROM). A Flash EPROM partition created with
the VFLASH utility is a read-only disk, while an MS-Flash partition created with the
FLASH FILE SYSTEM II utility is a read/write disk that can be accessed via the MS-DOS
commands. You can even set up your board to boot from the VFLASH partition.
