New Single-Board Computer 855 Series with reliability and features
focusing on a wide range of embedding needs

Pentium® M/Celeron® M Processors Compatible

 Contec Co. Ltd., a manufacturer of PC peripherals, industrial computers, and network equipment, has developed four small-size CPU board products with Intel® 855GME chipset, supporting power-saving and high-performance CPU Intel® Pentium® M / Celeron® M processors. The company has increased considerably its lineup of CPU board products for embedding as "Single-Board Computer 855 Series", the series allows users to select types of bus and air-cooling feature (with/without FAN) based on the installation environment and system configuration.

 "Single-Board Computer 855 Series" are IBM PC/AT compatible small-size CPU boards for embedding, and they adopt Intel 855GME + ICH4 as their chipset and support power-saving and high-performance Pentium® M Processor (or Celeron® M Processor) for their CPUs. ECC support high-speed memory PC2700 DDR SDRAM can be used so that a wide range of high-performance applications including an expressive HMI that uses high-quality video and audio, advanced graphics processing, multi-functions, broadband support, and other advanced functions will be supported.

 SPC-8552-LV and SPI-8551-LLVAS have built-in CPU (standard equipped) and realize the operation without FAN (a specified mount of airflow is needed around the heat sink) with using a specialized design large-size heat sink. (SPC-8552-LV has Pentium M 1.1GHz and SPI-8551-LLVAS has Celeron M 1.0GHz)

 For SPI-8550-LLVAS and SCP-8550-LLV, CPUs (with specialized heat sink and FAN) are sold separately, and so a user can select a CPU based on the purpose of use.
