Taipei Taiwan (March 05, 2009) - AAEON, a premier Industrial PC manufacturer, announces the release of the COM-45SP, a brand new, Type II Computer On Module (COM). The COM-45SP is the latest COM Express Module from the AAEON development team, having been chosen by Intel® as a lead account for the creation of a COM module for the Intel® GM45 chipset. AAEON is pleased to announce the debut of this cutting edge product that not only meets the demands for high performance in existing embedded markets but will create opportunities for new and exciting products.
The COM-45SP supports Intel® CoreTM 2 Duo/ Celeron® M (Socket-P) processors built on a 45nm process with up to 6MB CPU cache and a FSB of 1067 MHz. It supports up to 8GB DDR3 in a dual channel configuration by way of two 204-pin SODIMM sockets. With Gigabit Ethernet for a high bandwidth network connection and eight USB2.0 ports, the COM-45SP offers the connectivity required by demanding applications. The COM-45SP offers x16 PCI Express lanes through the GMCH (graphics, memory controller hub) which can be used for graphics or can be configured as PCI-Express［x1］/［x2］/［x4］/［x8］.), five additional PCI Express［x1］ lanes from the ICH9M (I/O controller hub), four 32-bit PCI, LPC bus, SMBus, and I2C. To make this module as versatile as possible it has been designed to operate from a wide DC input range of 8.5V to 19V.
“The key feature of COM Express Module is the reduction of development time and cost through the use of a common platform on a custom carrier board. You may design your own carrier board to support the COM-45SP or AAEON can provide a ‘Design To Delivery’ (DTD) service to minimize your loading and maximize your ability to allocate your internal resources“, said Peter Yang, Product Manager of AAEON’s Embedded Computing Division. “AAEON’s DTD service for carrier board design can be done in as little as 30 working days bringing yourproduct to market faster than ever. By using the AAEON’s resources for board development, the customer is free to focus on their core competency.” Peter added.
The Intel® GM45 offers Intel’s 5th generation of integrated graphics with hardware decode for MPEG2 supporting WMV9 (VC1) and H.264 (AVC). The COM-45SP offers CRT/LCD, CRT/TV, CRT/DVI, LCD/TV, LCD/DVI, all in simultaneous or dual view configurations. The x16 PCI Express can be configured to support two SDVOs, two HDMI ports, two DVI ports or three DisplayPort interfaces.
The COM-45SP features a high definition audio interface to meet the needs of various market segments such as: Digital signage, gaming & entertainment, Security, defense & government, retail & advertising and multimedia. For high performance and flexible I/O at a reasonable cost, the COM-45SP is the best choice. For detailed product information, please visit www.aaeon.com. or contact your AAEON regional sales team.
