Like its predecessor (the POS-560), the POS-562 also includes such standard
on-board features as 4 serial ports with power, 2 parallel ports, 1
DIMM and 2 SIMM sockets, 2 USB ports and a socket for a DOC®
2000 Flash disk (up to 72 MB). The POS-562 uses the same LPX form factor
as the POS-560, meaning that about 50% of the I/O ports are ready to
be connected from the rear. This greatly simplifies the process of system
integration for OEMs. Also, since all three of our POS boards (POS-460,
POS-560 and POS-562) have the same mounting dimensions, they can all
easily fit into Advantech's new LPX chassis, the POS-810 (see the following
the article for more information). Other chassis options include the
POS-808 and the POS-815. |

Advantech
is proud to introduce its most powerful POS control board, the
POS-562. It will be offered together with the older POS-560, with
the POS-560 acting as the Pentium® entry level
board for POS and the POS-562 aimed at high-end multimedia markets.
To start with, the POS-562 can accept processors up to Pentium®MMX
233 MHz. It's 100Base-T Ethernet allows for fast communication
and its 16-bit Sound Blaster Pro compatible audio enables one
to include high quality sound in one's applications. Using the
new C&T 65555 chipset, this POS board supports up to 36-bit
XGA high video resolution quality. The POS-562 comes with 2 MB
of video DRAM on-board, or an optional 4 MB. Lastly, this POS
supports LVDS for Long Distance LCD Support. This is a hot new
standard that allows the user to extend the distance between the
computer system and the actual display.
