VIA Technologies, Inc, a leading innovator and developer of silicon chip technologies and PC platform solutions, today announced
The VIA VT6047 Pico-ITX form factor reference design from VIA Technologies is said to be the smallest full-featured x86 mainboard in the industry, designed for ultra compact embedded PC systems and appliances.
The Pico-ITX form factor is the latest advance in VIA's platform miniaturization. The Mini-ITX mainboard, at 17 x 17cm, which recently celebrated its 5th anniversary as an industry standard form factor with wide market adoption, was followed by the Nano-ITX form factor at 12 x 12cm, exactly 50% of the size of the Mini-ITX. Now, the Pico-ITX, at 10c x 7.2cm and 50% of the size of the Nano-ITX form factor.
The VIA VT6047 Pico-ITX mainboard is powered by one of VIA's energy efficient processor platforms, such as the VIA C7 or fanless VIA Eden processor in the 21 x 21mm nanoBGA2 package, combined with feature-rich VIA system media processors to enable the board to pack a performance punch in a tiny, low heat, low power package.
