NANO-LX EPIC SBC
1.1 NANO-LX CPU Board Overview
The EPIC form factor NANO-LX AMD® Geode™ LX800 is a highly-integrated embedded
computer specifically optimized for multi-media applications requiring minimum installation
space. The NANO-LX is particularly suitable for low power and fan-less applications. The
NANO-LX supports a full range of functionality for an AT/ATX-compatible industrial
computer in a space-saving 3.5” profile. The NANO-LX is equipped with an on board
low-power consumption and high performance AMD® Geode™ LX800 processor. It also
contains a DDR SO-DIMM socket that supports up to 1GB memory in size.
1.1.1 NANO-LX CPU Board Applications
The NANO-LX SBC has been designed for use in industrial applications where board
expansion is critical and operational reliability is essential.
1.1.2 NANO-LX CPU Board Benefits
