PCA-6003 User's Manual
1.1 Introduction
The PCA-6003 Series all-in-one industrial grade single board computer
is a low cost yet full-featured product. It uses VIA's Apollo PLE133
chipset with integrated VGA and supports Intel Pentiun III / Celeron
processor up to 1.26GHz and above. Its on-board I/O functions and
industrial features can meet most of the requirements of industrial
applications.
The CPU provides 128/256/512 KB on-CPU L2 cache, eliminating the
need for external SRAM chips. It has two PCI EIDE interfaces (for up
to four devices) and a floppy disk drive interface (for up to two
devices). Other features include two RS-232 serial ports (16C550
UARTs with 16-byte FIFO or compatible), one enhanced parallel port
(supports EPP/ECP) and two USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports. The
PCI enhanced IDE controller supports Ultra DMA/33/66/100 and PIO
Mode 4 operation. This provides data transfer rates of 33/66/100 MB/
sec. System BIOS supports boot-up from an IDE CD-ROM, SCSI
CD-ROM, LS-120, IDE HDD, SCSI HDD, ZIP-100, LAN, and FDD.
A backup of CMOS data is stored in the Flash memory, which protects
data even after a battery failure. Also included is a 63-level watchdog
timer, which resets the CPU or generates an interrupt if a program
cannot be executed normally. This enables reliable operation in
unattended environments.
The PCA-6003 Series offers several impressive industrial features such
as chipset built-in VGA (AGP) interface, a 10/100Base-T networking
controller, two DIMM slots for a total of 1 GB RAM memory, and a
high driving ISA bus. The AC-97 audio interface (requires an audio
extension card: P/N PCA-AUDIO-00A1) provides audio input and
output. All these make it an ideal choice for applications that require
both high performance and full functionality.
The remote management interface enables the PCA-6003 to be
managed through Ethernet when it is connected to the SNMP-1000
Remote HTTP/SNMP System Manager.
