1.1 Introduction
KINO-9453 Mini-ITX Motherboard
Figure 1-1: KINO-9453 Embedded SBC
The KINO-9453 Mini-ITX form factor motherboard is an Intel® dual-core CPU platform.
Intel® Core™2 Duo, Core Duo and Core Solo CPU are all supported to enhance the
system processing speed. The KINO-9452 has a maximum front side bus (FSB)
frequency of 667 MHz and contains two DDR2 SDRAM DIMM sockets that support up to
4 GB system memory.
The KINO-9453 supports diverse displays including on e VGA display , one DVI display and
one LVDS display. These multimedia features make the KINO-9453 a best choice for
integrating into point-of-sale (POS), kiosk or digital signage applications.
The KINO-9453 supports up to two serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drives (HDD) with
maximum transfer rates of 1.5 Gb/s and up to eight USB 2.0 devices. The dual PCI
Express (PCIe) Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) controllers provide GbE connectivity for network
