Portwell ROBO-8912VG2AR Series LGA-775 Core 2 Duo processor based PICMG 1.3 Single Board Computer with DDR2 SDRAM, VGA, Dual Gigabit Ethernet, Audio and USB Simple Type: CPU Board

PORTWELL ROBO-8912VG2AR PICMG organization published PICMG 1.3 specification in late year 2005 which adopts PCI Express as external I/O expansion interface. The advanced PCI Express Technology’s throughput balanced the modern extreme computing power that makes the system much more powerful. ROBO-8912VG2AR, the PICMG 1.3 SHB (Single Host Board) supports Intel® Core 2 Duo processor that based on Intel® innovated Core Microarchitecture. The attractive processor does not only posses amazing parallel computing power but also generates 65W TDP (Thermal Design Power). That makes the system more powerful and reliable with dual-core processor with smaller and quieter cooling fan. The SHB was empowered by Intel® Q965 & ICH8DO chipset. The Q965 embedded Graphics Media Adapter 3000 is the 4th generation Intel integrated graphics controller that supports DirectX 9.0, Shader model 2.0, 256MB of video memory. More than that, user could utilize even higher-end, the latest PCI Express x16 interface graphics card via backplane. To meet bandwidth of storage and expansion cards requirement, the ROBO-8912VG2AR was designed flexible with four PCI Express lanes via backplane. Those four PCI Express lanes could be four PCI Express x1 links or one PCI Expressx4 link. Four PCI Express x1 links configuration can support more PCI Express x1 devices via backplane and one PCI Express x4 link configuration can support RAID card or special add-on cards such as image processing board. In addition, the flexible configuration can be leveraged with bridge on backplane to support more PCI or PCI-X slots that benefits industries with legacy support. Advanced Management Technology (AMT) is feature that ROBO-8912VG2AR equipped. This technology provides remote access capability via Intel® Gigabit Ethernet controller. With software from 3rd party, the new technology allows MIS or user to monitor system status and help the client to recover failure system. Beside that, the hardware and software information can be gathering by 3rd party software then storage in SPI interface EEPROM. Therefore, asset management could be done at the same time.
