introduction advantech"s new pcm-5825 is a 3.5" sbc with an on-board, embedded 586-class ns gx1-300 processor. other on-board features include vga/lcd, audio, a compact flash card socket, and 10/100 mbps ethernet. this board is the same as pcm-5820, but with two additional serial ports. with this board, system engineers will now be able to upgrade their 486-based systems to 586-level without as many addi-tional worries, partially because a 586-level ns gx1-300 pro-cessor is mounted directly on board. mounting cpus directly on board eases the configuration and installation process because there is no need to set any jumpers for speed or volt-age differences between various cpus. in addition to this ease of configuration, this cpu has been specially designed to work well in environments with temperatures of up to 60°c (140°f) without need of a fan.
