(Click for larger view of Sanyan's T601 ATX board)Sanyan is primarily known as a vendor of networked video surveillance systems, such as the recently released
NDVR (Networked DVR) system, which is built around its SL521 video encoder. The new SBC and ATX board, however, appear to have a wider list of target applications.
T601The ATX-format T601 is designed for gaming, digital signage, point-of-sale (POS), ATM, medical imaging, multimedia kiosks, and industrial automation, says Sanyan. The board is equipped with an Intel Core 2 Duo LGA775 dual-core processor clocked to 1.6GHz, with a 1066MHz FSB. It offers two SODIMM sockets for up to 8GB of 800MHz DDR2 RAM.
With its
Intel Q965 chipset, which includes Intel's GMA3000 graphics engine, the T601 can support CRT resolutions of up to 2048 x 1536, says the company. An onboard PCI-X16 slot is available for 3D graphics expansion, and the board is also said to support AC97/HD audio.
The T601 offers dual gigabit Ethernet ports, six USB 2.0 ports, a parallel port, and two serial ports, with an option to add four more. For expansion and storage, Sanyan offers PCI and Mini-PCI expansion buses, two SATA interfaces, and one UDMA EIDE interface.
T502The lower priced, more power-efficient T502 SBC is aimed at systems that "require fanless, diskless, lower power" operation, says Sanyan. Specific applications are said to include thin clients, POS, networked-attached storage (NAS), and H.264 video encoding and decoding.

It also supports NAND or CompactFlash, and offers an LPC Boot ROM, says the company. Display and media capabilities are more modest than the T601, with the system offering analog VGA output and AC97 audio. Audio connections include 16-bit, 48KHz stereo out port, as well as headphone and mic connections.

The SBC offers a 10/100 Ethernet port and four USB 2.0 ports, as well as a 44-pin IDE interface, and it offers support for a 2.5-inch hard drive and optical storage. Measuring only 5.5 x 5.0 inches (140 x 127mm), the board is said to operate from 32 to 158 degrees F (0 to 70 deg. C).
AvailabilityAccording to Sanyan, the T601 is available with a pre-built, bootable version of Windows XP Embedded, and it also runs Linux. The T502 runs Windows CE 6.0, Windows XP Embedded, or Linux, the company adds. Both devices are said to be sampling now, with production runs occurring over the next three months, but pricing was not available.
