FS-979 is the Full-size single board computer with last Intel desktop technology with
PICMG form factor. Based on Intel® 915GV and ICH6R, the board integrates a new
Pentium 4 processor 775-pin socket, DDR2 memory socket, and Intel® Graphic Media
Accelerator 900 technology, LAN, AC97 audio, USB2.0 and Serial ATA with RAID function
for a powerful rack-mount/wall-mount system.
Intel
® LGA775 processor
The Intel® Pentium 4 processor now comes with a new form factor with 775-pin PLGA
package, for 800MHz front-side-bus, 1MB L2 cache, and for 90nm manufacturing
technology, the PLGA processor without pin header on solder side can make user installing
the processor on the socket easier.
Intel® 915GV and ICH6R chipset
The Intel® 915GV integrates DDR2 400/533MHz for memory, and Graphic Media
Accelerator (GMA) 900 technology for new graphic engine. It can provide up to 224MB of
frame buffer when you install over 256MB of system memory. The ICH6R integrates with up
to 8 USB2.0 interfaces (4 ports for FS-979), and serial ATA interface with RAID function.
Dual Display Supported
Based on Intel® 915G GMA900 technology, the board supports dual display function with
CRT and DVI display interfaces. You can take this advantage for gaming, security
monitoring or other demonstration applications.
Multimedia interfaces
FS-979 also integrates AC97 audio, Compact Flash and DVI interface, for these flexible
functions, system integrator can built more powerful systems for many field applications.
Max up to 3 Gigabit Intel® LAN
With up to 3 PCI-Express 1x with Intel Gigabit LAN controllers, the boar d comes with the
powerful network function for Server or Workstation.
