The core of this industry PC is the 386EX-Card, which has proven successful in the marketplace for years. Many users require further features in addition to the 386EX-Card's serial interfaces, e.g. controllers for a floppy drive, IDE, LCD or keyboard. Instead of requiring several individual interface cards in the PIF format, the 386EX LCD Panel-PC integrates these interfaces into a single component.
The 386EX Panel-PC is available either in a housing or in kit form for installation into the customer's own devices.
Either an MF2 keyboard or matrix keyboard can be attached. Flash memory of up to 8MB is possible. If further interfaces are needed, extension cards from the PIF-card system can be attached via the PIF slot. Existing power supplies with a large voltage range (in machines or electrical cabinets for example) can very often be utilized.
