Advantech’s innovative MI/O (Multiple I/O) Extension Single Board Computer all feature
flexible and integrated multiple I/O to help aid efficient development, reduce resources,
and assist integrators to provide optimized solutions in a more cost-effective way.
By connecting with MIOe I/O extension modules which support additional extended
unified interfaces including: DisplayPort, 4 PCIe x 1, LPC, SMBus, USB 2.0/USB 3.0,
audio line-out and power, customers receive the best I/O choices to fulfill vertical
application development as well as helping them retain their specialist domain knowhow.
These features are all part of Advantech’s thoughtful effort to help integrators
flexibly develop market-sensitive solutions and seize those promising business opportunities!

|
Concentrated Thermal Design
|
|
Advantech MI/O Extension SBC is designed with a concentrated thermal design so that
all heat generation is on the top side only, dispersing heat via the heatsink or
the heat spreader with better results.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CCovers CPU, the southbridge, memory, power and active IC
|
|
|
Maximum thermal space
|
|
|
Heat spreader/heatsink integration
|
|
|
Simplifes system design
|
|
|
Thermally sensitive parts on the bottom side to prevent heat problems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reduced Cabling
|
|
MI/O Extension single board computers come with unified I/O connector coastlines,
CompactFlash and PCIe Mini Card locations. An area under the board is also designated
for a 2.5” hard disk. The structural uniformity helps eradicate possible problems
with integration during future upgrades.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Less cabling and lockable connectors on the bottom side
|
|
|
Reduced assembly, complexity, and labor costs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
Compact mechanical designs and simplified layouts address the major concerns of
embedded system integrators.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reduced system assembly parts
|
|
|
Saves up to 20% system space
