RoHS compliant, PICMG 1.3 Single Board Computer with PCI-Express Architecture.

The product utilizes hyper-threading technology and incorporates the Intel 945G and ICH7 chipsets, which support Intel's new dual core processors. In addition, because the PEAK 870VL2 is based on advanced PCI-Express architecture and is fully RoHS complaint, it is the ideal solution for a large number of today’s high-end industrial computing applications.

PCI Express is the latest interface for connecting a graphics card to a computer system. With one PCI Express x 16 and four PCI Express x 1, the PEAK 870VL2 increases data transfer rates enabling it to support today’s high-end graphic peripherals via a graphics card. With the new PICMG 1.3 standard, backwards compatibility for PCI and PCI-X is also possible.

The PEAK870VL2 features a multitude of I/O ports, including PCI-Express, eight USB 2.0 ports, four Serial ATA ports supporting SATA RAID 0.1 function and two PCI Express x 1 interfaces Gigabit Ethernet Lan ports. To facilitate improved system management and ultimately reduce system downtime, the PEAK870VL2 utilizes IPMB to monitor CPU running temperature, voltage and fan rotational speed. The combination of the PEAK 870 and Nexcom’s PICMG 1.3 based NBP 14570 back plane are designed to meet the requirements of a wide variety of advanced industrial embedded computing applications
