Advantech's True Multimedia Solution with Video-in & TV-out

PCM-5864 True Multimedia SBCAdvantech is pleased to announce its newest and most advanced 5.25" Biscuit PC, the PCM-5864 Pentium® MMX SBC with Video, Audio, VGA/LCD and Ethernet.

When using an Intel Pentium® MMX processor, the PCM-5864/5864L achieves outstanding performance that surpasses any other SBC in its class. This compact (only 5.75" x 8") unit offers all the functions of a single board industrial computer, but still fits in the space of a 5.25" floppy drive.

True Multimedia SBC

The PCM-5864 is a highly integrated multimedia SBC that combines audio, video-in and TV-out, and network functions on a single computer board the size of a 5.25" floppy drive. It provides PCI 32-bit full-duplex, integrated 3D surround audio which complies with the AC97 standard, video capture that supports connectors via an optional cable kit, and video-out function which supports NTSC and PAL formats. To help system integrators who wish to upgrade their PCM-5862 series SBCs, the PCM-5864/L has been designed with the connectors in the exact same locations as the PCM-5862 series SBCs, which means that one only needs to substitute the SBC without having to change the chassis or connector backplates.
