MANX

PC/104-Plus Single Board Computer

Overview

TheManxisacompact,ruggedsingleboardcomputerthatcombinesahighdegreeoffunctionality

withlowpowerrequirementsandnomovingparts.TheinherentruggednessoftheManx’sPC/104

size combined with the low power AMD Geode LX 800 processor make this board a great fit for

vehicular/aircraft controls, medical electronics, and many other OEM applications.

The Manx has an impressive list of on-board features, including high-performance video

with flat panel support, 10/100 Ethernet, four USB ports, three COM ports, LPT port, and IDE

interface. A CompactFlash socket provides bootable media storage and TVS devices provide

enhanced ESD protection on user I/O ports. The Manx includes 256 MB of soldered-on RAM

for use in applications requiring a high degree of ruggedness.

LikeallVersaLogicproducts,thissmallandefficientSBCisdesignedtosupportOEMapplications

where high reliability and long-term availability are required. From application design-in to 5+

years production life, its quality and longevity provide a cost-effective, long-term solution. The

Manx is manufactured and tested to the highest quality standards, is compliant with RoHS

regulations, and is backed by a two year limited warranty. Customization is available on as

few as 100 pieces.

Details

The Manx features the AMD Geode LX 800 processor, which offers outstanding performance

and low power draw (5W). This highly-integrated processor provides fast on-board transfers

(6 GB per second), high-speed memory access, and integrated high-performance video

with both analog and LVDS flat panel support. It is available in both standard temperature

(0° to +60°C) and extended temperature (-40° to +85°C) versions.

The suspend-to-RAM power management feature supports a very low power sleep mode

(0.2W) for use between active sessions.

The Manx can operate as a stand-alone SBC or can be combined with specialized PC/104 or

PC/104-PlusI/Oboardsforadditionalfunctionality.Pass-throughconnectorsforthePC/104and

PC/104-Plus interfaces provide support for many off-the-shelf I/O boards and also provide an

interface for custom baseboards that may be larger than the Manx. In addition, the Manx has

been designed to provide a migration path for VersaLogic Puma (VL-EPM-5x) SBC users.

The Manx includes several features to support reliable operation in the field, including TVS

devices and fanless cooling. The TVS devices provide enhanced ESD protection for the analog

video output, USB, COM, LPT, and Ethernet ports.
