2.1 p ITX Embedded Line Family
Each pITX is a member of the 2.5" SBC family of KONTRON Technology A/S based on the Pico-ITX TM specifi-
cation (only mechanical outer dimensions) from the Small Form Factor Special Interest Group (SFF-SIG).
pITX embedded line modules are characterized by the same front-line pinouts and interfaces for reset logic
and simple power supply, 2 x USB, LAN, S-ATA, GPIOs, CRT or DVI and LVDS interface. These embedded line
family features allow to use of the same chassis over the whole product line and maximize design reuse.
The pITX embedded line modules allow the use of standard laptop memories.
These homogeneous features facilitate easy upgrades within the pITX embedded line product family. Con-
nection of LCD panels is simplified when using the onboard standard JILI30 interface.
As part of the standard features package all pITX embedded line modules come with a JIDA interface which
is integrated into the BIOS of the SBC modules. This interface enables hardware independent access to the
pITX features that can't be accessed via standard APIs. Functions such as watchdog timer, brightness of
panel backlight and access to the GPIOs can be configured with ease by taking advantage of this standard
pITX module feature.
