Intel Atom based 3.5-inch embedded Board from Axiomtek

Axiomtek has announced CAPA801, a new 3.5-inch embedded board powered by Intel Atom processor D525 dual core 1.8GHz, D425 single core 1.8GHz, and N455 single core 1.66GHz. The low power CAPA801 has a 204-pin DDR3 667/800MHz SO-DIMM max up to 4GB capacity. Dual displays are supported by an 18-bit single channel LVDS port and VGA port.

The I/O features include six USB 2.0 ports, four COM ports, PCI Express Mini card, two Gigabit Ethernet, and HD audio. Operating from a +12V DC power this embedded board is designed for in-vehicle infotainment, industrial control, automation, gaming, medical devices, self-serve terminal, digital signage, fanless devices.

"Axiomtek's latest CAPA801 3.5-inch embedded board with the new Intel Atom processor D425/N455/D525 and Intel ICH8M I/O controller hub is an dream low-power and cost-effective embedded solution for industrial applications," said Michelle Mi, Product Manager of Embedded Board and Technology Business Unit at Axiomtek. "Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 supports LVDS and VGA in dual display types. Measuring 146 x 104 mm, the CAPA801 offers complete I/O functions and great expansions. Low-power consumption, compact size and integrated graphics make this platform well suited for many space-limited and thermally constrained embedded applications." Moreover, with ECX stacking module AX95601, the CAPA801 can expand the application for 24 bit dual channel LVDS panels (resolution 1920 x 1080).

For the storage effort, the CAPA801 supports two SATA-300 ports and a CompactFlash slot. Networking is provided by one Intel 82583V Gigabit LAN and one Intel 82567V Gigabit LAN.
This embedded single board computer supports Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP embedded, and Linux.
