The MPEG4000WA serves as a very powerful solution for capturing and compressing up to 4 concurrent live analog video inputs to full D1 resolution using either MPEG-4, MPEG-2 or M-JPEG encoding standards. The board can also encode audio for ea... [more]
IEI Launches the PICOe-GM45A Half-size 45 nm Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor Platform
Half-size CPU cards are commonly used in space-restricted industrial computing applications. However, most half-size CPU cards don’t provide simultaneous support for both the PCI Express (PCIe) and PCI communication buses. Supporting only one of these communication buses restricts the expansion options available to system integrators and developers and inhibits their ability to create comprehensive systems. IEI Technology Corp. has announced ... [more]
