The NITX-300 series of Nano-ITX motherboards from Emerson Network Power feature
the Intel® Atom™ processor E6xx series. These ultra low power motherboard solutions
offer passive cooling capability for reliable operation. They are designed for use in a
variety of applications such as embedded instruments, medical carts, audio visual display
systems, and other applications that require an easy-to-use Nano-ITX motherboard with
support for a variety of operating systems.
With a size format of 120 mm x 120 mm, Nano-ITX form factor motherboards are very
suitable for low power embedded applications. The NITX-300 series has a low height
prole to t into most enclosures and has a wide range of built-in connectivity including
LCD and/or CRT displays; SATA for physical or solid state disks; a PCI Express x1 expansion
slot and a PCI Express Mini Card slot for Wi-Fi/WiMAX; USB and Gigabit Ethernet networks;
audio; and multiple serial ports.

The Wind River On-Board Embedded Development Kit for
the NITX-300 Seed Board is ideally suited for developers
that wish to develop graphics applications, as well as for
those developers that wish to run multiple applications
using the on-board hypervisor technology. The 30-day
evaluation software includes Wind River Hypervisor with
VxWorks and Wind River Linux as Guest OS. Wind River
Linux is pre-inte grated with the Intel® Embedded Media
and Graphics Driver.
The LiveUSB stick that accompanies the kit is pre-installed
with both the Wind River Workbench IDE for embedded
development and the Tilcon GUI tools for graphics
development.
By working closely together, Emerson and Wind River
are making development access easier, faster and more
affordable than ever by putting all the tools in one box
for customer evaluation.
