Introduction
1.1 Overview
NITX-300-ET-DVI is a highly integrated small form factor Nano-ITX board based on the
Queensbay platform, including the Tunnel Creek processor and Topcliff IOH. The NITX-300-ET-
DVI incorporates the standard processor, memory, graphics and I/O functionality, as is
common to a small form factor PC motherboard. The NITX-300-ET-DVI operates with or
without a local display. Standard PC expansion ports are also available on the rear panel along
with additional USB ports, SATA and Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) via headers on
the board as well as a single PCI Express expansion slot. As the NITX-300-ET-DVI is based on the
latest Intel Queensbay platform, it has a long product life cycle, lower power consumption and
suitable for fanless applications. NITX-300-ET-DVI performs well within extended temperature
ranges for more rugged commercial applications. NITX-300-ET-DVI is designed to meet -40 °C
to -85 °C ambient temperature requirement.
