FS-97A User’s Manual Introduction
Chapter 1 <Introductions>
1.1 < Product Overview>
The FS-97A is an all-in-one single board computer with PICMG interface. Based on Intel
Mobile solutions with 855GME chipset, it supports Intel Pentium M processor with
socket479, DDR266/333 SDRAM up to 2GB of capacity, Intel Extreme Graphics 2
Technology of onboard VGA display interface, AC97 2 channel audio, USB2.0 interfac e
and one Gigabit Ethernet controller.
To be a powerful multimedi a platform, FS-97A is also integrated with 24-bit dual channel
LVDS interface and one Compact Flash Type II socket. For these features FS-97A can be
easily used for industrial multimedia platform like POS or KIOSK system.
Powerful Embedded System
FS-97A also supports Intel Pentium M FC-BGA2 for embedded, you can choose it for lower
voltage and power consumption, further more, and it can be done for fan free system.
With one compact flash type II socket, you can port embedded operating system like
windows CE.net or Linux Embedded for it.
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Interface
Intel ICH4 built-in Hi-Speed USB 2.0 controller let FS-97A offering up to 480Mbps of
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interfaces.
