VIA usualy expend their efforts on promoting their own embedded platforms. Their Mini-ITX especially, but also the Pico-ITX, are now industry standards in the embedded industry. So to is the COM Express form factor, developed by the PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group).
VIA has just announced a new COM Express module which makes nice work of using the VIA Nano E-series processor and the VX800 digital media chip. The press release points out the products highlights:
* High performance, 64-bit VIA Nano E-Series processor
* 18/24-bit dual channel LVDS plus VGA support
* 3 PCI, and one x4 plus two x1 PCIe slots
* Up to 2GB of DDR2 SO-DIMM memory
* 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet
* Up to six USB 2.0 ports
* Up to two SATA devices plus 1 IDE
In some ways this new module is an upgrade to the COME7N80 which uses the older VIA Eden processor.
The COME8X80 is available for OEM and ODM clients now, and for Australian companies, that probably means going direct to VIA's head office.
