The Kontron ETXexpress?-690 COM Express[tm] Computer-on-Module is based on the latest AMD M690E and SB600 embedded chipset with the integrated Radeon[tm] X1200 graphics core and has been tested for DirectX? 9, OpenGL as well as hardware accelerated MPEG and WMV9 decoding capabilities using the newest range of benchmarking tools. Up to 256 MBytes of graphics memory, anti-aliasing and 3D texture come together to make the Kontron ETXexpress?-690 Computer-on-Module number one on the list of the relevant benchmarks, i.e. 3D Mark 05 and Maxton Cinebench 10.0.
The Kontron ETXexpress?-690 is especially designed for graphic-intensive applications requiring a well-balanced Computer-on-Module that combines comprehensive high-performance 2D and 3D graphics with adequate processing performance. Such applications also benefit from the relatively low thermal design power of 10W to 35W making possible designs with fully-sealed and rugged housings with passive conduction cooling. Therefore, the Kontron ETXexpress?-690 Computer-on-Module is ideal for a wide range of embedded solutions, including medical, industrial and security imaging applications, powerful HMIs for process visualization, CAD and digital mock-up systems as well as POS/POI, gaming and multimedia solutions.
The highly-scalable and cost-effective Kontron ETXexpress?-690 Computer-on-Module offers processing performance ranging from the single core 1.0 GHz Mobile AMD Sempron[tm] 2100+ processor up to the dual-core AMD Turion[tm] 64 X2 TL-52 with 1.6 GHz. Performance is further boosted by 800 MHz FSB, 256 MByte shared memory and up to 4Gbyte dual channel DDR2-800 SO-DIMM memory. The two banks of DDR2 memory ensure extremely fast graphics processing performance.
The Kontron ETXexpress?-690 Computer-on-Module is 100 percent COM Express[tm] compliant and comes with a host of interfaces that conform to the PICMG? COM.0 specification's Type 2 pin-out. By conforming to the COM Express[tm] specification, Kontron's latest Computer-on-Module also supports TDMS for applications requiring DVI or HDMI graphics. Extensive I/O options ensure application flexibility and include PCI Express 3×1 lanes + PEG 1×8, 10/100/1000 Mbit Ethernet, eight USB 2.0 ports and dual video streaming capabilities to mention just a few. For enhanced data safety, the Kontron ETXexpress?-690 offers a RAID 0,1,10 subsystem along with AHCI and 4 x SerialATA 300 ports for quick hard drive access. The Kontron ETXexpress?-690 Computer-on-Module also offers continued support for applications requiring PCI and IDE interfaces.
The COM Express[tm] compliant Kontron ETXexpress?-690 Computer-on-Module supports Windows? XP, Windows? XPe, Windows? CE, Windows Vista? and Linux.
