Cobra Pentium M Single Board Computer Product Overview The Cobra belongs to a new class of embedded comput- ers offering higher processing performance with lower power consumption, extreme graphics capability and enhanced ruggedization. The advanced design makes it suitable for a wide range of higher-end applications with demanding speed and graphics requirements, in- cluding gaming devices, information kiosks, telecom- munications devices and advanced security systems. In addition, its PC architecture and small footprint make it an excellent choice for traditional embedded applica- tions. The system is built around the Intel Pentium M Proces- EBX single board computer with Pentium M sor and its companion chipset, the 855GME with inte- processor, Extreme Graphics 2 chipset, dual grated Extreme Graphics 2 and audio functions. The processor incorporates a number of power saving fea- Ethernet, CompactFlash socket, analog and tures and performance enhancing features such as a digital I/O, and PC/104-Plus expansion. large 1 MB level 2 cache.
