Compact Board PCM-8120
1.1 Introduction
AAEON announces a brand new Compact Board-PCM-8120
designed to deal with the escalating demands of balancing cost
while improving performance. This advanced, new generation
Compact Board can easily adapt to diverse applications in this
competitive industrial embedded market.
PCM-8120 adopts a VIA C7 processor which features low power
consumption and transcendent performance. In addition to the
VIA C7 processor from 1GHz to 2GHz, this model can be equipped
with an Eden V4 Bus (400MHz to 1.5GHz) processor. Moreover,
240-pin DDRII DIMM system memory is up to 1GB. For network
connection, the PCM-8120 deploys Realtek RTL 8139DL
10/100Base-TX chip and features two RJ-45 ports onboard.
This new Compact Board configures a VIA CX700M integrated
display chipset to support CRT/LVDS, LVDS/TV or CRT/TTL,
CRT/DVI, TV/TTL, TV/DVI simultaneous/dual view display. In
addition, it supports MPEG-4 accelerator to enhance the
performance of multimedia applications.

Notice:
Compact Board PCM-8120
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
