2SBC-456/456E User Manual

Introduction

TheSBC-456/456E is an all-in-one single board 486 computerwithan

onboardflatpanel/CRTSVGAcontrollerand PCIEthernet

interface (SBC-456E). It packs all the functions of an industrial

computer and its display capabilities onto a single, half-size card.

This means the SBC-456/456E is your absolute best solution for

embedded applications.

The onboard PCI-bus, flat panel/CRT SVGA controller uses the

CHIPS 65550 chipset with up to 2 MB of video memory (onboard

1MB). This chipset, used with the local PCI-bus, enables 32-bit

graphic throughput at up to 33 MHz. Excellent for display-intensive

applications, it supports various LCD types including TFT, STN, B/

W, and EL.

The onboard Ethernet Realtek RTL 8029AS PCI bus Ethernet

controller supports remote boot ROM functions (SBC-456E only).

TheSBC-456/456Esupports the M-Systems DiskOnChip 2000

(optional) which is a new generation of high performance single-

chip Flash Disk. It provides a Flash Disk (as a BIOS expansion)

which doesn't require any bus, slots, or connectors. It is also the

optimal solution for Single Board Computers because of its small

size, easy integration, plug-and-play functionality, and its low power

consumption. The DiskOnChip is available in capacities from 2MB

to 144MB and fits in a standard 32-pin DIP socket.

Another feature of the SBC-456/456E is the inclusion of a high

speed, local bus IDE controller. This controller supports (through

ATA PIO) mode 3 and mode 4 hard disks, enabling data transfer

rates in excess of 11 MB/second. Up to four IDE devices can be

connected, including large hard disks, CD-ROM drives, tape backup

drives, or other IDE devices. The built-in, enhanced IDE controller

provides a 4-layer, 32-bit, posted write buffer and a 4-layer, 32-bit

read-prefetch buffer to boost IDE performance.
