	Description Overview The EPM-VID-3 is a PC/104-Plus video expansion module for PC/104-Plus, EPIC, and EBX systems. It provides video output to flat panel, CRT, and composite video displays. It can be used as a primary or secondary video output device or as a temporary video device during system development and testing. The standard module provides connectors for LVDS, CRT and TV outputs. Custom versions are available with TTL flat panel outputs. Up to three simultaneous outputs are available, with driver support for two independent displays. CRT and TV outputs are automatically detected and configured through the video driver. This PC/104-Plus module can be used to expand any PC/104-Plus compatible system. Additional PC/104-Plus or PC/104 modules can be stacked above the EPM-VID-3 module. Like all VersaLogic products, the EPM-VID-3 is designed for high reliability and long-term availability and is backed by VersaLogic’s award-winning customer support. It is fully compatible with a wide selection of popular operating systems including most Windows and Real Time Operating Systems. It is thoroughly tested using Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) and functional testing, and includes a two-year limited warranty. Details The foundation of the EPM-VID-3 is the ATi Rage Mobility M1 graphic accelerator coupled with 8 MB of video RAM, which supports 18-bit and 24-bit color (16.7 million displayable colors) and CRT resolutions up to 1600 x 1200. LVDS and optional TTL output supports resolutions up to 1280 x 1024). Triview™ video output allow up to three simultaneous displays. Dual display combinations (supported under Windows only) include LVDS/CRT or LVDS/TV. The EPM-VID-3 features a customizable video BIOS including jumper-selectable flat panel modes. It is pre-programmed for simplified LVDS flat panel setup, and can be customized for other (TTL) panel types. This module is compatible with most Windows operating systems, Linux, QNX Neutrino, and Wind River VxWorks. Video drivers for this board are available for most Windows and Linux operating systems. Other OS platforms may require development of custom drivers to support advanced display capabilities. The EPM-VID-3 is compatible with PC/104-Plus systems, including most VersaLogic single board computers.
