Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1  Introduction
The new PCI-6871 is a half-sized CPU card with onboard VIA 
Eden400 C3 EBGA fanless CPU. The VIA Eden processor uses advanced 
0.13µ CMOS technology with 128KB L1 cache memory and 64KB L2 
cache memory on die. This board with Eden400 CPU can operate without 
a fan at temperatures up to 60° C (140° F) and typically consumes under 
14 Watts while supporting numerous peripherals. This SBC includes a 4X 
AGP controller, a PCI Ethernet interface, and 36-bit TTL interface. Its 
design is based on the half-sized CPU card and supports PCI bus expan-
sion. Other on-board features include an FDD, LPT, 4 USBs, and 2 serial 
ports. PCI-6871 supports AC97 audio with the addition of the optional 
PCM-231A-00A1 audio module. This product uses a VIA VT8606 
"TwisterT" chip with Integrated Savage4 2D/3D/Video Accelerator and 
supports 4X AGP VGA/LCD interface and up to 32 MB frame buffer 
using system memory. The PCI-6871 supports one 10/100Mbps Ethernet 
connection with an onboard RJ-45 connector, and is effective for use as a 
firewall, VPN, or other communication device.
