December 9, 2014 - AAEON announced EMB-BT2 and EMB-BT4 Mini-ITX Boards. Both boards are powered by the Intel Atom E3800 series processors to offer performance and low power consumption. Fanless design is adopted to negate problems such as vibration and mechanical breakdown from moving or changing of parts while is dissipated entirely by heat sinks. Energy consumption is further reduced with the utilization of ATX power specifications, widely adopted for its stability and versatility, requiring only 12V. Supporting Dual LAN and mSATA, both boards are ideally suited for factory automation applications.
As the former feature offered a primary and backup internet connections while the latter permits use of many shock-resistant mSATA devices. Moreover, with numerous interface and expansion slots, such as (up to six) COM ports, (up to eight) USB ports and other expansion buses, and LVDS technology offering a closed connection between the video processing units of the board to the display, its use extends to the outdoors, as the connection will not be affected by any external interference. The thin design of the EMB-BT4 is also slim enough to be used in panel PCs and slim PCs.
