Commell announces FS-97D PICMG 1.0 CPU Card based on Q35 Express Chipset

PRLog (Press Release) - Oct 08, 2008 -
Taiwan Commate Computer Inc. (COMMELL), the worldwide leader of Industrial single board computers, introduced the PICMG 1.0 FS-97D SBC based on the Intel Q35 Express Chipset that supports 45nm Intel Core 2 Quad or Intel Core 2 Duo processors up to FSB1333/1066/800MHz to meet a wide range of performance needs. This impressive platform helps embedded equipment manufacturers deploy exceptionally responsive, high-performance, low-power systems for interactive clients (i.e., point-of-sale terminals and interactive PCs), industrial control and automation, gaming, print imaging and network security applications.

The FS-97D features low-power graphics with Intel GMA3100 and allows for reduced power and noise without sacrificing the performance and its 3-D enhancements enables greater flexibility and scalability. Microsoft DirectX 9.0c Shader Model 2.0, OpenGL 1.4 compliant, it is ideal for business users seeking support for advanced operating systems like Windows Vista and independent dual display the viewable workspace.

COMMELL's FS-97D supports 2 x DDR2 SDRAM memory modules up to 4GB, comes with PS/2 Keyboard and mouse, 1 x RS232C, 1 x RS232/422/485, 2 x Intel 82573L Giga LAN, 8 x USB2.0 ports, Realtek ALC888 HD audio, 6 x SATA interface up to 3Gb/s, and provides quicker access to digital photo, video and data files with RAID 0, 5, and 10. Provide expansion slots with 1 x Mini PCI for future add-in card upgrades.
