Product Overview
The ETX-mgx (Embedded Technology eXtended) is a highly integrated and fast PC module with extreme low power consumption. It allows, due to the used AMD® Geode™ GX1 processor, the usage of the board without active cooling in applications, where space limitations (the maximum height without heat sink is only 10 mm!) are major requirements.
Despite the very little board dimensions, the ETX-mgx offers all standard interfaces such as sound, Ethernet, USB
and graphic. The AC97 compatible sound chip is supported by most operating systems. For networking purposes the
ETX-mgx comes with a 10/ 100 MBit Ethernet controller which allows an easy Intranet/ Internet access. Total connectivity is guaranteed by the huge amount of communication interfaces like 2 serial TTL ports, an EPP/ ECP parallel port, 2 USB ports and the 10/ 100 MBit Ethernet. The integrated video controller operates CRT monitors as well as LVDS LCD panels. With up to 4 MByte video RAM, allocated by UMA, resolutions up to 1280x1024 with 8 bpp or 1024x768 with 16 bpp (high color) depth can be displayed. You‘re looking for a secure and EMI tolerant boot medium and want to be unlimited in your media capacity choice? A CompactFlash™ socket is already mounted on the ETX-mgx and offers you a lot of possibilities. For further expansions two IDE ports with Ultra33 DMA capabilities are available on the SMT bus connectors. They do not provide the PCI bus only, the ISA bus signals are also available. A lot of existing ISA boards can still be used via an ISA slot on a baseboard. This avoids expensive redesigns of well proven ISA cards to PCI versions for standard PC motherboards. Despite the unbelievable variety of functionality, the ETX-mgx is a very inexpensive choice, the cost effectiveness of this device is unbeatable. With this low-cost module, you are...
