conga-X945


Dual Core XTX™ embedded CPU module with 4 PCI Express lanes and SATA


XTX™ Module with Intel® Core™ Duo processor

High End

The conga-X945 features the latest Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processors up to 2x 1.5 GHz with 4 MByte shared L2 cache. It offers all XTX features including 4x X1 PCI Express lanes.

ETX® compatible

The conga-X945 offers the highest computing performace available on ETX® module size. It’s completely ETX® compatible but offers PCI Express, SATA and much more state of the art features by using the ETX® ISA pins.

Lead-free Design (RoHS)

As of July 2006, all electronic products are required to be environmentally friendly. All congatec AG products fulfill this requirements.

Mass Storage

Two serial ATA® drives can be connected as fast mass storage devices. In order to support economical and robust CompactFlash cards, parallel ATA is also available.

Connectivity

Thanks to the four PCI Express, six USB 2.0, 2x SATA®, two COM ports, PCI, I²C, LPT,... the conga-X945 offers more connectivity than most other computer modules.

Graphics Efficiency

The integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 features the latest 3D, 2D and video capabilities. It supports up to 224 MByte frame buffer using Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT). With EPI  support the conga-X945 automatically recognizes almost every available flat panel display and sets all parameters accordingly. Additional displays can be connected using the analog VGA interface or the DVO port. TV-Out is also supported.

Sound

conga-X945 can utilize several high definition audio (HDA) codecs. This allows for the easy implementation of telephone and audio applications that require the highest sound quality and numerous channels.

Security

The conga-X945 can be equipped optionally with a ”Trusted Platform Module” (TPM). This TPM includes coprocessors to calculate efficient hash- and RSA-algorithms with key lengths up to 2,048 bits as well as a real random number generator. Security sensitive applications like gaming and ecommerce will benefit also with improved authentification, integrity and confidence levels.
