Introduction
Thank you for choosing NOVA-7830 SOCKET370 CPU with Multimedia & LAN
Ethernet Embedded Little Board, which comes equipped with the Intel advanced
chipset 815E. This product is designed for the system manufacturers, integrators,
or VARs that want to build a low power consumption system.
In addition, NOVA-7830 provides on-chip VGA which provides up to 1600x1200
resolution. LCD which provides up to 1024x768 resolution.
An advanced high performance super I/O chip— W83627 and NS87366 is used in
the NOVA-7830 board, which provides four UARTs are compatible with the
NS16C550. The parallel port and FDD interface are compatible with IBM PC/AT
architecture's.
NOVA-7830 has one Fast Ethernet Multifunction PCI Controller as a LAN controller,
which is fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX LAN solution with high
performance networking functions and low power consumption features.
This board has a built-in Compact Flash Disk Socket, CardBus, and FireWire for
embedded applications.
For multimedia application, NOVA-7830 provides many functions, such as 1394,
5.1 channel Audio and video in.
