1.1 Introduction
The EMB-945T adopts the latest Intel® Core™ Duo processors and
Mobile Intel
capabilities and enhanced performance. EMB-945T with mobile-optimized
Intel dual-core processors is the latest embedded motherboard desi gned
to cope with increasingly heavily work-loaded embedded systems found in
POS (Point-of-Sale) machines, automated kiosks, medical instru ments,
advanced automation for buildings and homes, and gaming machines.
The EMB-945T, based on Intel
next-generation platform featuring one PCI slot, one PCI-E slot, one
Mini PCI slot, six COM ports, six USB 2.0 ports, multiple Digital I/O
ports, and Type II CFD storage, providing versatile expansion options
for many embedded applications.

Core™ Duo processors, is AAEON’s
The EMB-945T not only keeps the advantages of AAEON’s previous
embedded motherboard designs, such as the DDRII memory,
PCI-Express, and SATA, but also adds more functionality and improved
performance. The Front Side Bus is up to 667MHz and graphic
performance has been enhanced from 20 to 30%. In addition, the
EMB-945T supports DX9L appropriate to the DirectX and LVD/iDCT
MPEG2 Hardware Decode.
AAEON is one of the first computer platform vendors to launch an

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
