The PCI-6771 is Advantech's latest effort to provide new PCI based solutions to their customers. This SBC is based solely on the PCI bus standard.

Advantech previously featured PCI/ISO capabilities in the NLX line of products with the PCN-6351 SBC with associated backplanes and chassis. However, Advantech customers continued to show increased demand for PCI only solutions. The PCI-6771 answers these customers needs.

The advantage of using the PCI bus standard is the higher performance of 32-bits at 33 MHz compared to the ISA buses' standard 8/16-bits at 8 MHz. This increased performance makes PCI cards especially attractive for communication applications. PCI bus cards also provide for easy expansion. For example, adding another Ethernet port could easily be done on a PCI bus card. Also, other high-speed add-on cards need a PCI interface. High speed Add-on communication cards are good examples of this.

Socket 370 Flexibility
The PCI-6771 supports Socket 370 for Intel Celeron^TM / Pentium III processors. Celeron^TM / Pentium III processors of 300A/333/350/400/433/466/500 MHz are all supported. There is a Trident^TM Cyber 9525DVD controller that supports up to 1024 x 768 resolution as well as 36 bit XGA TFT LCD panels. There are 2 serial ports, one RS-232 and one RS-232/422/485. The PCI-6771's USB interface is USB rev.1.0 compliant. There is a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface as well as SIR IrDA compliant infrared support. The PCI IDE interface has one enhanced IDE interface that supports 2 IDE devices. Ultra DMA 33 mode up to 33 MB/sec and PIO mode 3,4 with Bus Mastering up to 14 MB/sec.
