Overview

VIM301 is a PC/104-Plus graphics controller module based on the low power mobile display controller SM722G8 (Lynx3DM8+) from Silicon Motion with 8 MB of integrated video memory.

Depending on version, VIM301 allows connection of the following displays: analog CRT monitor with RGB interface, up to two LCD panels with Flat Panel (FP) interface (resolutions 640×480, 800×600, 1024×768, 1280×1024, 9/12/18/24-bit color), up to two LCD panels with single channel LVDS interface, electroluminescent (EL) monochrome display from Planar with SGD 4-bit LCD interface (resolution 320×240), up to four analog video cameras.

For communication with other modules in stack VIM301 uses PCI bus (PC/104-Plus connector). The module is designed for embedded applications requiring low power consumption and capable to operate within temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.
