The Express-ATC is a low power, low cost,Compact COM Express module specially designed to facilitate speedy development of semi custom designs.
The COM Express standard embodies the convergence of the latest technology standards based on serial differential signaling such as PCI Express, USB 2.0, SATA, LVDS and Serial DVO implemented on a compact size Computer on Module. Signals are brought out through two 220-pin board-to-board connectors that permit data transmission rates of up to 5GHz.
Mounting holes connect the module with a custom-made, application specific carrier boards which provide protection from shock and vibration.
The Express-ATC is a COM Express type II compatible module in a ??Compact?? 95 mm x 95 mm form factor. The module features a 45nm process Intel® Atom™? processor N270 with 512 kByte L2 cache. The Atom N270 processor has a thermal design power of just 2.5 watts at peak levels while supporting IntelR SpeedStepR Technology. The Intel® Atom™? processor N270 also supports Hyper- Threading Technology allowing it perform like a dual-core processor.
The Express-ATC is positioned as an entry level COM Express module for systems that require a full set of graphics features and a small footprint. Primary focus for applications areas are: Medical Diagnostics and Medical Imaging, Gaming, Industrial Automation, Test and Measurement, Video Preprocessing and Industrial Control.
The Express-ATC supports up to 2 GB of DDR2 667MHz memory on a single SODIMM socket. The Mobile IntelR 945GSE Express Chipset integrates an IntelR Graphics Media Accelerator 950 that provides CRT, single/dual channel LVDS and TV-out (SDTV and HDTV). In addition to the onboard integrated graphics, the SDVO bus can connect to DVI, TMDS or TV-out device controllers. The board also allows connection of up to three additional PCI Express x1 devices on the IntelR I/O Controller Hub 7-M (ICH7-M) Southbridge. The module is optionally available in an ??Extended Version?? that supports 5 free PCI Express x1 ports, four of which can be grouped to a PCIe x4, while supporting the LAN controller on the 5th port.
The module comes with a single onboard Gigabit Ethernet port and two SATA ports. It has legacy support for a single parallel IDE channel, 32-bit PCI and LPC. The Express-ATC comes equipped with AMIBIOSR8 supporting embedded features such as: Remote Console, CMOS backup, CPU and System Monitoring and a Dual Watchdog Timer for NMI or RESET.
