CHAPTER 1 Specifications The ultra-compact and highly integrated VIA EPIA-NX Nano-ITX mainboard is the smallest form-factor available today. Through a high level of integration, the Nano-ITX measures at only 50% of the size of small, ergonomic, innovative and affordable embedded systems. 1 The mainboard enables the creation of an exciting new generation of a Mini-ITX mainboard.

The black wire is Ground and should be connected to +12V. Pin Signal 1 NC 2 +12V 3 GND 13 6 When connecting the wire to the connectors, always be aware that the red wire (positive wire) should always be connected to GND. Chapter 2 CPU The VIA EPIA-NX Nano-ITX mainboard can support VIA C7 NanoBGA2 and VIA Eden NanoBGA2 processors. The processor requires a heatsink with fan for 1.5GHz SKU and a fanless heatsink for 1.2GHz SKU. CPU Fan and System Fan: CPU_FAN and SYS_FAN The CPU_FAN (CPU fan) and SYS_FAN (system fan) run on +12V and maintain system cooling.
