STD Bus board comes with PC-104 expansion option
The 80386SX-based board is targeted at embedded-system applications
To broaden the possible expansion capabilities of an embedded system, the
MCM-SX386 STD Bus board comes with a PC-104 expansion interface. The
interface permits the board to use PC-104 modules that measure 3.6 x 3.
8-in. and support video, LANs, and other special-purpose I/O functions.
Based on an 80386SX processor operating at 33 MHz, the MCM-SX386 board
has up to 4 Mbytes of parity-checked dynamic RAM and a 32-pin EPROM
socket. Communication is via two serial ports for RS-232, RS-422, or
RS-485 communication, and a parallel port. A controller is provided for
two floppy-disk drives, an IDE drive, a keyboard, and a 16-channel
interrupt. Also included on the board are a real-time clock, three
counter/timers, DMA controllers, a speaker port, a power-fail reset
circuit, and a watchdog timer. A socket is provided for an 80387SX math
coprocessor. (16-MHz, 512-Kbyte board, $850–30 days ARO.) WinSystems,
