Avalue Introduces ECM-QB with New Intel® Atom™ Processor E620/640/660/680 Series

The new Intel® Atom™ processor E6xx series is a new System-on-Chip Atom-based processor which includes the memory controller, 3D graphics engine, high-definition video decoder and video encoding engine, display controller, a legacy peripheral controller, and a high-definition audio controller on the same die as the CPU. Thus this SoC solution will provide system builders with support for much smaller housing designs than previous Atom-based chips. In addition, the new chip also includes a PCI Express bus interface, allowing flexible connectivity for USB, COM, SATA and so on via an I/O chip, or PCI Express-compliant add-on cards such as video, audio and graphics.



With Intel® Platform Controller Hub EG20T, Avalue’s ECM-QB supports single channel 18/24-bit LVDS and CRT+LVDS multi-display. The I/O deployment includes 2 SATA, 3 RS-232, 1 RS-422, 1 RS-485, 1 CAN, 4 USB 2.0, and 8-bit GPIO. Two Intel® gigabit LANs and more expansion options with PCI Express mini card slot and LPC for extra devices. Also, the ECM-QB can endure wide temperature operation, making the ECM-QB a great choice for customers who need an embedded board for extreme environments.



The ECM-QB 3.5-inch board represents an excellent green product performing with its dimension, extra low power, and 5~7 year long product life, as a matter of course at an affordable price. It is suitable for applications like in-vehicle infotainment, Medical instrument, IP media phone, and gateway service.
