  • PC Form Factors
    PC Form Factors Computers come in different form factors. ATX is the most common. AT used to be the standard but is now obsolete. NLX and LPX are two others. These forms describe the shape and size of the motherboards, as well as the layout of the components on the board. The form factor will also determine the type of case you must buy, as the case is laid out differently and uses a different type of power supply. AT Form Factor Within the AT form, we have regular AT and Baby AT. They basically differ in size. An AT board is about 12" wide which means it can't fit in many of today's cases. AT boards generally are the older boards, 386 or earlier. Working inside the case was a lot more trouble with these because the size of the motherboard overlapped drive bays and such. Baby AT is the form used by many 486 and Pentium boards.. Many Socket 7 motherboards and a few Pentium II boards used this form factor. A Baby AT board is roughly 8.5" wide and 13" long. The size varies a little from board to board. This reduced size makes it easier to work inside the case simply because there is more room. There are three rows of mounting holes to hold the board in the case. AT form boards share common traits. They all have serial and parallel ports attached to the case in an expansion slot and connected to the board through cables. They also have a single keyboard connector soldered onto the board at the back of the board.

  • ETX Driving Embedded
    An ACCES I/O Products Whitepaper ETX Driving Embedded I/O ACCES I/O Products, Inc., 10623 Roselle Street, San Diego, CA 92121 (858) 550-9559 • Fax (858) 550-7322 • [email protected] • www.accesio.com One of the fastest-growing concepts in the embedded world is the “computer-on-module” or COM.The COM approach takes the traditional concept of a computer motherboard with plug- in I/O modules and turns it around so that the motherboard, now called a baseboard, con- tains all the I/O and the CPU with its core support chips and memory plug in as a module. The result of this reversal is an approach that blends the advantages of custom design with those of standard products. Products based on the COM approach maintain long-term viabil- ity while retaining access to the latest in computer technology. One of the principal COM implementations available in the market is the Embedded Technology eXtended (ETX) specification, first developed by Kontron in early 2000. The ETX specification defines a module that is approximate- ly 100-mm square (see Figure 1) and contains the core of a personal computer (PC), including CPU, chipset, mem- aper ory, and core I/O capability. The core I/O includes Ethernet, graphics, USB, keyboard, mouse, and serial interfaces along with a PCI/ISA bus for connection to additional peripherals. Four surface-mount connectors route the mod- ule’s I/O to the baseboard, which can be designed to meet an application’s specific needs. P The original ETX specification was quickly adopted in the embedded industry and is now monitored by the ETX Industrial Group (ETXIG), which is dedicated to keeping the specification in line with advancing technology and market needs.

The PW-60A is the only cable-less mini-ITX power supply solution for the VIA platform. Compatible with an entire range of mini-ITX motherboards such as VIA EPIA-V, EPIA-5000, EPIA-800, Lucky Star Mini-ITX, FIC C3 933 mini-ITX, the PW-60A provides cool, silent power for your small mini-ITX motherboard. Additionally, PW-60A dc-dc converter can power up your EPIA-M or other VIA C3 boards by using a small ATX adaptor cable. Quick installation The PW-60A has been specifically designed for the Mini- ITX form factor, thus eliminating the need for ATX power cables or ATX power extenders. In case you are using a non mini-itx board or a mini-ITX board that doesn’t conform to the form factor that the PW- 60A was designed for, please use a regular female-male ATX power supply extension cable. Important note: Due to small tight requirements, please ensure that you first connect your IDE cables to the motherboard. For mini-ITX systems such as EPIA-800/5000 or EPIA-V simply plug the DC-DC converter board into the mother board as shown in fig 1.1.

  • ATX Specification
    ATX Specification Version 2.01 ATX Specification - Version 2.01 New features and additional requirements of Version 2.01 of the ATX specification Please Note Version 2.01 of the ATX Specification incorporates clarifications and some minor changes, as noted below. These changes take into account support for the next generation of ATX motherboards, while maintaining compatibility with the first generation. Readers should examine their combination of motherboard, power supply, and chassis needs to determine whether they require the additional features found in Version 2.01 of the ATX Specification. Changes from Version 2.0 to Version 2.01 of the ATX Specification • Section 2 - Updated Figure 1 to reflect recommendations implemented with Version 2.0. • Section 3.2 - Modified Figure 2 to clarify motherboard mount requirements. • Section 3.3 - Updated table of requirements to reflect changes in the section outlined below. • Section 3.3.5 - Rewrote text to clarify requirements. • Section 3.3.5 - Reduced keepout zone requirement to 0.1” (2.5 mm). This change was based on feedback from chassis manufacturers and is the most significant requirement change with respect to the chassis. • Section 3.3.5 - Added recommendation to avoid paint within the keepout zone. • Section 3.3.5 - Replaced Figure 4 to clarify chassis I/O aperture requirements. Tolerances were added to dimensions. • Section 3.3.5 - Changed Figure 5 to define connector placement limitations on the motherboard. This is a new recommendation for motherboard designers to ensure clearance between the chassis and motherboard connectors for the I/O shield. • Section 3.3.5 - Modified Figure 6 to remove redundant dimensions, and removed Figure 7 completely.
