Based on the new Intel solution for embedded, the PEM-E200VLA is specifically designed to support dual VGA display interface for various multimedia devices with low power consumption. With a maximum power consumption of around 12W specified as standard, the new PEM-E200VLA is expected to appeal to manufacturers of applications that require fanless operation. Where heat dissipation is an issue, a thermal cooling interface has been defined to help transfer any heat generated to a cooling solution.

PEM-E200VLA also provides extensive connectivity through industry standard interfaces including one SO-DIMM slot to support SDRAM up to 2GB; two SATA; four USB 2.0; one Fast Ethernet Ethernet; two VGA interface (2^nd VGA interface supported if TV-out function is not needed); the LVDS 18 Bit; HDA (High Definition Audio); I²C Bus; LPC (Low Pin Count) Bus, and the PEM-C200 microATX form factor based development kit carrier board.

Frederic Wang, Portwell’s product manager, points out that PEM-E200VLA is the latest ETX 3.0 module with a host of features, including Intel® Atom™ processor, Intel® 945GSE and ICH7M chipset, plus a built-in GMA 950 graphic engine that provides higher graphics frequency than the Intel® 852GME chipset. “PEM-E200VLA not only includes dual VGA, dual SATA, and Lower power consumption, but also provides the long life cycle support to give our customers peace of mind,” Wang adds. “The new PEM-E200VLA ETX 3.0 module joins our QSEVEN, COM Express, Nano-ITX, ECX and Mini-ITX form factors as part of the ATOM family in Portwell’s portfolio of embedded computers. Typical applications will be Automation, Transportation, Gaming and any applications where an ultra low power embedded computing system is required.” he confirms.
