1.1 Introduction
The AEC-6915 Rev.B BOXER 2 Advanced Embedded Control
system continues the BOXER design concept but focuses on the
fast expanding Machine Automation market. The AEC-6915
Rev.B can provide four PCI slots for expansion. Therefore
AEC-6915 Rev.B’s expandable function, compact size combined
with fanless design and highly efficient heat conduction
mechanism can fulfill any rugged technical application in
industrial automation, factory control, test instrumentation and
safety surveillance.
Outstanding Ov er-spec Design
®
CoreTM 2 Duo processor with 2.0GHz combined with
Intel
fanless design and high performance is widely acceptable and
dependable in this market. USB 2.0, Ethernet and 4 Serial ports
allow communication with diverse devices with a high transfer
rate. Furthermore, the AEC-6915 Rev.B can concurrently support
4 PCI for expansion. These interfaces are fully integrated within
the BOXER series and allow an upgrade to their usefulness. It is
a leading-edge thermal and vibration design (up to 60 degree
operation and 5G RMS vibration) and also an innovation for
Machine Automation in the IPC industry. AEC-6915 Rev.B plays
a role in connecting all subsystems in common applications.
