SubCompact Board GENE-8310

1.1 Introduction

The GENE-8310 is the third generation of fanless solutions that AAEON has released through their original design. It is more advanced than previous SubCompact Boards, with higher performance and lower power consumption. We believe the GENE-8310 will become one of the best choices for our customers who need a higher requirement in processor ability with excellent power consumption control. The GENE-8310 derives its excellent functionality from several distinctive features:

Superb Performance and Controllable Power Usage

The Gene-8310 utilizes the newest generation Intel Voltage Celeron

processor and chipset. With its low-power

Ultra Low

consumption platform, the GENE-8310 offers a stable and efficient computing platform which not only exceeds past products but also solves your problem when attempting to balance performance and power consumption. The obvious benefit is that the GENE-8310 is more flexible and can be used widely even in development for a new application field.

Multiple Display Modes

The previous generation of fanless 3.5” SubCompact Boards can usually provide a basic display mode due to the limitation of board size and power consumption; nevertheless, the GENE-8310 offers diverse display modes based upon the support provided by the

Chapter 1 General Information 1-2

SubCompact Board GENE-8310

Intel® platform. It has the best graphics capability among current

3.5” SubCompact Boards. In addition, the GENE-8310 supports CRT, LCD, DVI and TV-out which can meet your requirements. The result is you will never need to worry about the limitations of board size and power consumption using this SubCompact Board for sophisticated graphics output.

Wide Expansion Capability

Although the GENE-8310 measures only 5.75” x 4”, that does not affect its expansion ability because of the presence of an onboard Mini PCI slot. Hence, the GENE-8310 allows a greater variety of expansion interfaces in a very small space. Compared with PC/104 modules, Mini PCI modules are cheaper in price and more helpful for saving system space. The GENE-8310 is the optimum 3.5” Board for expansion capability. Not all customers have needs that can be easily satisfied by a 3.5” board that only has limited features due to its small-size and fanless operation. The GENE-8310 has been endowed by our engineers with features that can meet the high CPU loads of complex application needs with higher performance and multiple functionalit y. This SubCompact Board will meet the stringent demands of the embedded market by fulfilling the requirements of faster processor speed with fanless operation, better graphics and small size.

Notice:

SubCompact Board GENE-8310

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
