2 PCM-5864/E/L User's Manual1.1 IntroductionThe PCM-5864/E/L is an all-in-one multi-media Pentium®processor-based single board computer (SBC) with a 16-bit audiocontroller, a video in/out controller, a PCI SVGA controller, a PCI100/10 base-T Ethernet interface, and one PCI expansion slot.When using an Intel ® Pentium ® MMX processor, the PCM-5864/E/L achieves outstanding performance that surpasses any otherSBC in its class. This compact (only 5.75“ x 8”) unit offers all thefunctions of a single board industrial computer, but still fits in thespace of a 5.25“ floppy drive.On-board features include 512 KB 2nd level cache, four serialports (three RS-232, one RS-232/422/485), one multi-modeparallel (ECP/EPP/SPP) port, two USB (Universal Serial Bus)ports, a floppy drive controller, and a keyboard/PS/2 mouseinterface. The built-in high-speed PCI IDE controller supportsboth PIO and bus master modes. Up to two IDE devices can beconnected, including large hard disks, CD-ROM drives, and tapebackup drives.The PCM-5864/E/L features power management to minimizepower consumption. It complies with the “Green Function”standard and supports Doze, Standby and Suspend modes. Inaddition, the board‘s watchdog timer can automatically reset thesystem or generate an interrupt if the system stops due to aprogram bug or EMI.Highly integrated multimedia SBCThe PCM-5864/E/L is a highly integrated multimedia SBC thatcombines audio, video, and network functions on a singlecomputer board the size of a 5.25" floppy drive. It provides 16-bithalf-duplex, 8-bit full-duplex, integrated 3D audio, and up to1024 x 768 resolution @ 64 K colors with 2 MB display memory.Major on-board devices adopt PCI technology, to achieveoutstanding computing performance when used with Intel ®Pentium ® processors. This makes the PCM-5864/E/L the world‘ssmallest and most powerful all-in-one multimedia board.
