Advantech's Future is Looking Bright

A European company has taken one of Advantech's versatile SBCs, the PCA-6154 Half-size Pentium MMX CPU Card with VGA/LAN/SSD, and has made it the heart of one of its new automatic photo printing machines. Our card gives operators of this machine the power, speed and control ability of a typical PC.

Why Advantech?

Advantech's CPU board was chosen for this application because it has both Ethernet and VGA capabilities already on board. In addition, the PCA-6154 is both CE and year 2000 compliant. During the research and development phase, Advantech was instrumental in customizing the BIOS for the customer. Besides this, Advantech's European distributor provided a great deal of local service and support.

Future Prospects

During the initial sale of the PCA-6154 to this customer, a good business relationship was established, and Advantech will most probably supply the card or the board for this company's next generation of automatic photo printing machines. They will need assistance with WinCE, for which Advantech is steadily becoming a solution supplier (see story on front page).
