ECC.
EMC directive
Directive concerning

Energy management
The energy management functions of a modern PC allow individual control over the current
consumption of vital computer components (e.g. of the monitor, hard disk and CPU), by
restricting their activity based on the current system or component load. Energy
management is of particular importance for mobile PCs.
Energy options
The energy options can be used to reduce energy consumption of the computer, while
keeping it ready for immediate use. This can be configured in Windows by selecting Settings
> Control Panel > Energy options.
Enhanced Write Filter
Configurable write filter that allows you to, for example, boot Windows Embedded Standard
from write-protected media (e.g., CD-ROM), set write protection for individual partitions, and
adapt the file system performance to user requirements (when using memory cards, for
example).
ESD Guideline
Guideline for using electrostatic sensitive components.
Ethernet
Local network (bus structure) for text and data communication with a transfer rate of
10/100/1000 Mbps.
Execute Disable Capability
Hardware implementation that prevents mutual memory accesses by programs and
applications. It is only effective when all relevant system components, such as processors,
operating systems and applications are supported.
