1.1 Introduction

The EMB-6908T adopts the latest AMD Athlon (AM2 Socket) processor and AMD M690T+ SB600 chipset for a lower power consumption and higher performance solution. EMB-6908T utilizes two DDRII 240-pin DIMM system memory that supports ECC dual-channel DDRII 533/667 up to 4GB. It is the latest embedded motherboard designed to cope with increasingly heavily worked-loaded embedded systems, such as digital signage, POS (Point of Sales) machines, banking machine, medical instruments, gaming machine, and etc.

The EMB-6908T accommodates two optional PCI-Express x1 slots, one PCI slot and one Mini PCI slot for a flexible expansion. Moreover, it supports various storages including one EIDE, and four SATA ports. The I/O expansion of EMB-6908T features six COM ports, 10 USB2.0, one Parallel port, one DVI-I port, two Gigabit Ethernet ports, and HD 5.1CH Audio that are enable for expanding system functions.

The EMB-6908T provides numerous features for the embedded systems and will be the best solution for your complicated applications.

2.1 Safety Precautions

Always completely disconnect the power cord from your board whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on, because a sudden rush of power can damage sensitive electronic components.

Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the board. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis
