Fanless Single board AR-B8172 with Vortex86DX 800MHz & 256MB DDR2

AR-B8172, a new ISA half-size CPU board with DM&P Vortex86DX 800MHz SoC and 256MB DDRII memory.

Legacy ISA Supporting

AR-B8172 has legacy PC/104 interface that through ISA Bus by Vortex86DX. It doesn’t need a bridge chip to transfer PCI signal to ISA signal. It has good compatibility with the older carrier board, motion card or IO card. By true ISA supporting, it can replace the older or phased-out CPU platform like Ali or STPC. Those CPU are hard to buy and the cost is raised. AR-B8172 will be a nice alternative platform to develop.

Low Power Consumption Solution

AR-B8172 is equipped with Vortex86DX is a low power consumption platform. Vortex86DX’s power consumption is 2~3 Watts and the total power consumption of AR-B8172 under full-loading near 6 Watts. AR-B8172 also offers VGA output, two serial ports and four USB for basic IO requirement. AR-B8172 will be an ideal solution for embedded application which need lower CPU performance and less IO in harsh environment.
