Introduction

About the Product

This product is a FA personal computer equipped with the Intel ® Atom processor E3845. It has

sufficient performance with low power consumption, as well as set up at a small area.

It has extension interfaces such as Analog RGB, HDMI, 1000BASE-T, USB 3.0, and serial. These Units

are ideal for a wide range of embedded applications, such as control devices and information terminals

based on general-purpose PC OSes.

I adopt Embedded-type chipset and CPU. The use of parts that can be stable supply, can be used with

confidence.
