New MicroBox Chassis is Here

Advantech's new MBPC-300 MicroBox Chassis has been designed especially for our 5.25" Biscuit PC family of SBCs. This family consists of the Pentium MMX CPU based PCM-5862/L, PCM-5862E/L and PCM-5864 (in the near future), as well as our 486 CPU based PCM-4862. Optional features on many of these boards include Ethernet, audio, and Flash disk sockets, to name just a few.

About the MicroBox

The MicroBox MBPC-300 is a compact industrial-strength Biscuit PC chassis with dimensions of only 67.5 mm x 233 mm x 151 mm (2.65" x 8.78" x 5.94"). Inside the box, there is enough space for stacking two PC/104 modules and room for an optional 2.5" HDD. There are connectors on both the side and the top. In addition, Advantech will soon offer an optional 80 W power module.

Application Possibilities

The compact size and rugged design of this MicroBox, in conjunction with the power and versatility of Advantech's full-size Biscuit PC family of SBCs, allow for a virtually limitless range of application options. Such options include wallmount PC controllers, embedded PC controllers, unattended controllers, and compact industrial PCs. The MicroBox is ideal for both industrial and public environments.
