  • 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.

  • 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.

Some companies refer to the motherboard as a system board or planar. The terms motherboard, main board, system board, and planar are interchangeable, although I prefer the motherboard designation. This chapter examines the various types of motherboards available and those components typically contained on the motherboard and motherboard interface connectors. Several common form factors are used for PC motherboards. The form factor refers to the physical dimensions (size and shape) as well as certain connector, screw hole, and other positions that dictate into which type of case the board will fit. Some are true standards (meaning that all boards with that form factor are interchangeable), whereas others are not standardized enough to allow for inter- changeability. Unfortunately, these nonstandard form factors preclude any easy upgrade or inexpen- sive replacement, which generally means they should be avoided. The more commonly known PC motherboard form factors include the following: Obsolete Form Factors Modern Form Factors All Others ■ Baby-AT ■ ATX ■ Fully proprietary designs ■ Full-size AT ■ micro-ATX (certain Compaq, Packard Bell, Hewlett-Packard, ■ ■ LPX (semiproprietary) Flex-ATX notebook/portable sys- ■ WTX (no longer in production) ■ Mini-ITX (flex-ATX tems, and so on) ■ ITX (flex-ATX variation, never variation) produced) ■ NLX Motherboards have evolved over the years from the original Baby-AT form factor boards used in the original IBM PC and XT to the current ATX and NLX boards used in most full-size desktop and tower systems.

  • Multifunction Pico-I/O Module Provides 8 Optically Isolated Inputs
    ** FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ** Multifunction Pico-I/OTM Module Provides 8 Optically Isolated Inputs, 4 Solid State Relay Outputs, and Two 16-Bit Analog Inputs Embedded Systems Conference Silicon Valley Press Release—ACCES I/O Products, Inc.—Booth 1345 SAN DIEGO, CA—April 27, 2010—ACCES I/O Products, Inc. is excited to announce an addition to its growing line of Pico-I/O small form factor products—Model PICO-II8IDO4A. Designed for expansion on Pico-ITXe single board computers, this dense, multifunction product features 8 individually optically isolated inputs, 4 fully protected solid state FET outputs capable of switching up to 3A each, and two 16-bit analog inputs. The circuit isolation makes the module ideal for use in control and instrumentation applications where high-voltage protection is required. Individual channel-to- channel isolation allows every channel to be physically and electrically separated from the others. In addition, the two 16- bit analog inputs provided by the PICO-II8IDO4A allow for the monitoring and control of a variety of system parameters such as temperature, voltage, humidity, and more. The tiny module occupies just half the area of a PC/104 board yet approaches the capability commonly found on the larger board standard. This board is perfect for deployment into space-limited applications and follows the ever-shrinking platform of the single board computer into the Pico-ITXe standard by VIA and other manufacturers. Bus and power connections are built on the SUMITTM (Stackable Unified Module Interconnect Technology) connector standardized by the Small Form Factors Special Interest Group (SFF-SIG: www.sff-sig.org) and manufactured by Samtec, Inc.
