ConnectBus-II
Overview of the ConnectBus-II gaming boards for the gaming industry manufactured by Inncore. These boards use PC-control technology platforms and are backward and forward compatible industrial-grade single board computers.
The ConnectBus®-II platform gaming boards provide a complete hardware solution for I/O and multimedia intensive embedded computing applications as part of the DPX series. This PC-controlled technology platform for the gaming industry is based on a range of forward and backward compatible industrial-grade single board computers. Inncore's ConnectBus-II also includes an extensive set of features for I/O, peripheral interfacing and security that has been developed to exactly meet the needs of the gaming industry, especially for video slot machines.
Key Features
- DPX-116 or DPX-117 single board computer — high reliability X86 boards with ATi’s® Mobility™ Radeon™ graphics, 3D sound, dual battery backed SRAM, large expansion ROM, D-PCI expansion, TPM Security (this also applies to the DPX-114 legacy product)
- I/O Board — Provides extra I/O, output drivers, isolation, and COM ports. Mapped in I/O space of the single board computer via D-PCI
- Backplane — Consists of only passive components and the connectors for cable harnesses. Backplanes are easily modified for different applications. Backplanes can be compatible with any ConnectBus-II motherboard.
- High reliability — Reduced number of boards and interconnects together with industrial grade cable harnessing leads to greater overall system reliability.
- Board Support Package (BSP) — Suite of drivers and software API for Windows XP and Linux covering all functions of the motherboards and IO boards
