Axiomtek announced SHB212, a new PICMG 1.3 half-size CPU card, comes with the low-power Intel® Atom™ processor D525 dual core 1.8GHz, D425 single core 1.80 GHz, and N455 single core 1.66 GHz. One DDR3 667/800MHz SO-DIMM onboard implements up to 4GB of system memory. Dual-display support is provided through a VGA port and 18-bit single channel LVDS interface. It also comes complete with several I/O like USB 2.0, COM, Gigabit Ethernet, and HD audio. Additionally, the SHB212 only requires +12V DC power input. The advantages of low-power consumption and compact size make this platform well suited for many space-limited and thermally constrained embedded applications, such as DVR, digital security surveillance, gaming machine, visual inspection instruments, and video server.

“Axiomtek’s latest SHB212 PICMG 1.3 half-size CPU card with the Intel® Atom™ processor D425/N455/D525 and Intel® ICH8M I/O controller hub serves a wide range of applications where flexibility, low-power consumption, and thermal efficiency are important. The advanced power saving also allows it to achieve a low total cost of ownership. Integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 supports LVDS and VGA in dual display types. Beside, the PICMG 1.3 specification brings advantages of PCI Express to this half-size CPU card that offers four PCIe x1 or one PCIe x4 routed to the backplane,” said Eric Chiang, Product Manager of Product & Marketing Division at Axiomtek. “To satisfy increasing demands for data transfer speed, the SHB212 provides six USB 2.0 ports and two SATA ports with transfer rates up to 3Gb/s. This newest single board computer is perfect for embedded and automation applications in DVR, digital security surveillance, gaming machine, visual inspection instruments, video server, and much more.”

Other onboard I/O features include two COM ports (1 x RS-232 & 1 x RS-232/422/485), Dual Gigabit LANs, HD audio, and CompactFlash™. With LPC I/O integrated, the SHB212 provides reliable operation and non-stop capability by watchdog timer, as well as SMART FAN feature which controls the fan speed to keep the temperature in a specified range. Additionally, Windows® Vista, Windows® XP embedded, and Linux are all supported.
