1 Introduction Features Watchdog Timer The Watchdog Timer function allows your application to regularly “clear” the system at the set time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset at the set time interval so that your system will continue to operate. CompactFlash The system board is equipped with the CompactFlashTM socket for inserting a CompactFlashTM card.
Introduction 1 HDMI HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a compact audio/video connector interface for transmitting uncompressed digital streams. It delivers multi-channel audio and uncompressed digital video signals for full HD 1080p visuals through a single cable. Connect a LCD monitor or digital TV that has the HDMI port. Note: Both, HDMI and LVDS, use Chrontel CH7036; therefore, they will have the same graphic output display.
1 Introduction Wake-On-LAN This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (SoftOff) PC. It is supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt. Important: The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must support ≥720mA.
Introduction 1 ACPI STR The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Management and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management. ACPI when enabled in the Power Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend to RAM function.
