   Overview

COMMELL FS-978 SBC (Single Board Computer) is an all-in-one industrial full-size PICMG (PCI/ISA)-bus CPU card based on Intel mPGA478 Pentium 4 architecture. With Intel 82865G  series chipset, FS-978 offers the value solution with Intel NetBurst micro-architecture, 400/533/800 MHz of FSB, 2 GB DDR SDRAM, Supports bandwidth up to 3.2GB/s(DDR400) for Single Channel mode and 6.4GB/s (DDR400) in Dual Channel mode. Supports non ECC DIMMs, Intel 82865G GMCH built-in 256bit 3D VGA controller, share memory up to 64MB, Supports one external D-sub 15-pin connector & one internal 15-pin header , On board Intel 82547EI to support Gigabit Ethernet LAN, Optional Intel 82562ET 10/100Mb LAN and Hi-Speed USB 2.0 high speed I/O interfaces.

 

Based on Intel's long term supply chipset, FS-978 should be the ideal solution for long life industrial applied computing platform with high computing capacity and cost effect. The onboard Intel PRO/100+ LAN and PRO/1000+ LAN, M-systems CompactFlash SSD (Solid State Disk), and ISA 64mA high drive capacity also make FS-978 be the value Pentium 4 DDR platform for :

  • Value Industrial Computing Platform: Intel mPGA478 Pentium 4 / Celeron CPU with 400/533/800 MHz FSB and 2 GB DDR SDRAM, Supports bandwidth up to 3.2GB/s(DDR400) for Single Channel mode and 6.4GB/s (DDR400) in Dual Channel mode. Supports non ECC DIMMs, FS-978 offer the high-end industrial computing platform with low cost Intel integrated solution. The long term support, onboard SSD, dual Intel LAN (with 1 Giga LAN) and ISA 64mA high drive capacity also make FS-978 be the ideal solution for industrial server and workstation, CTI (Computer Telephony Integration), VoIP (Voice over IP), and other high-end applications.

  • Low Cost Multi-media Solution: Intel 865G series chipset built-in Intel Extreme Graphics 2 with 256-bit internal path offering 2D/3D graphics and video performance improvements over its predecessor graphics architectureand, optimized the efficiency of AGP dynamic video memory by increasing its size of Video RAM allocation to 64MB. The result is an increase in total system performance. offers the value solution for the low cost multi-media computing platform. Such as VoD (video on demand), DVR (Digital Video Recorder), digital video broadcasting (DVB), streaming, surveillance, compression (MPEG), interaction server, workstation and terminal appliances.

  • Hyper Network Performance: On board Intel 82547EI to support Gigabit Ethernet LAN, Optional Intel 82562ET 10/100Mb Fast Ethernet interfaces for redundant LAN (high reliability),  external / internal networking applications.

  • High Speed USB 2.0 Interface: Intel ICH5 built-in Hi-Speed USB 2.0 controller let FS-978 offer the Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface with up to 480 Mbps of data transfer rate. It makes FS-978 be the platform to link with Hi-Speed USB 2.0 devices including digital camera, USB hard disk, and other USB 2.0 based peripherals.

  • Series ATA interface: Supports two Serial ATA connectors, data transfer rates up to 150MB/s.

  • Ultra320 SCSI Interface:On Board LSI53C1030 to support Dual Channel Ultra-320 SCSI. The first Channel is supported with one 68-pin wide SCSI connector. The Second channel is supported with one 68-pin & one 50-pin SCSI connectors.

  • Mini AGP port Expend solution: Provide the capable of driving an ADD card to support LVDS/TMDS/TV/HDTV devices. Provide the capable of drive an Mini-AGP card to support AGP 8X/4X graphic card.
