TAIPEI, TAIWAN, November 28, 2003 - The latest offering from IBASE Technology is the MB850 Intel® Pentium® 4 processor-based Mini ITX board that incorporates the Intel® 845GV Chipset Memory Controller hub and supports 478-pin Intel® Pentium® 4 processors running 1.7GHz and up to 3.06GHz with FSB 533MHz/400MHz.

The I/O functions on MB850 are integrated in the ICH4. It supports the integrated graphics device (IGD) on the GMCH that has 3D, 2D, and video capabilities. System memory size can be up to 1GB, using the single DDR socket on board. Four USB ports are supported with the USB 1.1/2.0 standard.

MB850* optionally supports CRT and TV out or LVDS with the use of the Chrontel CH7017 display controller device which accepts two digital graphics input data streams. One data stream outputs through an LVDS transmitter to an LCD panel, while the other data stream is encoded for NTSC or PAL TV and outputs through a 10-bit high speed DAC. The TV encoder device encodes a graphics signal up to 1024x768 resolution and outputs the video signals according to NTSC or PAL standards. The LVDS transmitter operates at pixel speeds up to 165MHz per link, supporting 1600x1200 panels at 60Hz refresh rate. MB850 supports either TV out or LVDS interface one at a time.

The MB850 Mini ITX board comes with Realtek 8100BL Ethernet functionality (10/100Mb). The board also has AC97 6CH audio, 4 COM ports, UDMA 100, digital I/O (4 in/4 out), watchdog timer and a PCI slot for extra expandability. Dimensions of the board are 170mm x 170mm.

This board represents the perfect choice for those who want superior performance for POS, kiosk, ATM, Web payphone, medical and other embedded applications.
