All three Em-ITX I/O expansion modules are fully compatible with the VIA EITX-3000 board as well as forthcoming Em-ITX form factor boards. These Em-ITX I/O expansion modules are available now.



About the Em-ITX Form Factor

The VIA-developed Em-ITX form factor measures 12cm x 17cm, with both 17cm edges providing dual I/O coastlines making it ideally suited to the development of ultra-slim embedded devices. This unique design greatly reduces cable clutter, facilitating thinner, more compact designs.



The Em-ITX form factor features the specially developed Em-IO expansion bus to integrate stackable, customizable, expansion modules such as the VIA EMIO-3110, VIA EMIO-3430 and VIA EMIO-3210. The Em-IO expansion bus integrates the majority of legacy as well as the very latest bus signal technologies.
