ETX®-Starterkit

The ETX® Starterkit is designed to give you a head start. In the Starterkit you will find the ETX® evaluation baseboard to provide an easy connection to the ETX® module, switchable (115V-/230V) power supply, Floppy Drive, and a CD-ROM Drive. Choose any ETX® module of your choice with the heatspreader and a SDRAM memory module. On the accompanying CD-ROM you will find all the necessary Starterkit documentation.

The ETX® Eval is an ATX motherboard, which fulfills all user requirements. Additionally to the typical interfaces like IDE, FDD, parallel and two serial ports, the board offers a RJ45 Ethernet and two additional USB ports. Common used receptacles make it easy to connect speakers or microphones directly. The motherboard is expandable via four PCI and three ISA slots and is equipped with both ATX and BabyAT power connectors. This allows the usage of every available power supply. As a special, the board offers a standardized FFC connector for LVDS panels, simple „plug and work“. The absolute highlight is the scaleable processor performance. Due to four defined high count plugs it is possible to work with different processor modules.

From AMD®, VIA® up to Intel® all future CPU technology can be inserted. The expensive replacement of the complete mainboard is obsolete and makes upgrading pretty easy. With this complete package you will find all the necessary components to start immediately the evaluation process. This will lead to quicker application development, which will shorten your overall time-to-market.
