VIA eH1 card offers DX10.1 graphics and multi-screen HD video content for embedded systems
VIA Technologies has developed a graphics card designed specifically for the embedded market. The eH1 is a DX10.1 compliant, multi-display card for the PCI Express slot that comes with the three year product longevity guarantee that is vital for embedded designs and is the most power-efficient discrete graphics and video solution on the market today. The VIA eH1 AIB uses the 64bit S3 Chrome 5400E GPU graphics chip for DirectX 10.1, OpenGL 3.1, OpenGL ES 2.0 and offers multi-stream 1080p HD video decoding and Stereoscopic 3D rendering capability alongside 512Mbytes of DDR3 memory. This makes it the ideal solution for a range of embedded applications that require advanced graphics and video on multiple displays.
“The VIA eH1 hits a real sweet spot for the embedded industry as a whole,” said Daniel Wu, Vice President, VIA Embedded Platform Division at VIA Technologies. “Offering technologies like DX10.1, OpenGL/CL, plus multi-channel HD video playback on an extremely low power AIB will excite system integrators who want to bring the latest features to existing platforms.”
