Mini-ITX is a compact motherboard configuration designed to support computers in small spaces such as in automobiles, set-top boxes, and network devices. The Mini-ITX can also be used in making thin client computers. obh abm
The Mini-ITX is similar and backward compatible to predecessor motherboards, the Micro-ATX and the Flex-ATX, but it has several features that set it apart.
The Mini-ITX
is very small, measuring 170 mm x 170 mm (6.75 inches x 6.75 inches). The
power supply is normally less than 100 watts.
The Mini-ITX processors are
ultra low power x86 processors, often soldered to the motherboard
and
are often cooled by a heatsink only, however the more powerful processors
require a fan.
In general, video, audio, and local area network (LAN) connection
are built into the Mini-ITX.
It also has USB ports, a serial and parallel
port, audio input and output, and a PCI slot that can support two devices with
a riser card.
There is no floppy drive interface, but there is a CD-ROM and
DVD-ROM interface.
A case (a Micro-ATX and Flex-ATX case will work), memory,
a hard drive, and a power supply complete an inexpensive computer.
A computer
built with a Mini-ITX could be used for simple, everyday tasks such as e-mail,
Web browsing, word processing, and listening to music. The Mini-ITX was developed
by VIA Technologies.

LPC
= Low Pin Count bus for I/O, used by modern super I/O chips, via the Southbridge
chip of the motherboard.
Super I/O chip may contain a floppy disk controller,
parallel port (commonly used for printers), one or more serial ports, mouse interface,
keyboard interface. A super I/O chip may also have other interfaces,
as for a joystick or infrared port.
Mini-ITX Motherboards
Mini-ITX
motherboards are designed with rich functionality and reliable performance in
a small footprint that measures just 6.69" x 6.69".
The highly integrated
platforms feature low power consumption of less than 100 Watts and have one basic
expansion slot.
Theyre ideal platforms for fast-emerging markets where
size and power efficiency are required, such as information station kiosks, POS,
lottery and gaming machines, and many other applications.
