Introduction This document defines Pico-ITX, the IT industry's smallest mainboard form factor specification, developed by VIA Technologies, Inc. as part of its "Small is Beautiful" strategy of shrinking the x86 platform in order to inspire innovative system design and to make x86 accessible for a new generation of smaller computing and connecting devices. In addition to describing the main features and applications for Pico-ITX form factor mainboards, this document also includes information about the VIA VT6047 Pico-ITX mainboard reference design, a working version of the board with suggested components and layout. 2. Pico-ITX Mainboard Form Factor Overview 2. 1 Pico-ITX Mainboard Form Factor Features and Benefits The new Pico-ITX mainboard form factor provides system developers and OEMs with a standardized, ultra compact yet highly integrated platform that can be utilized across multiple embedded PC, system and appliance designs. From car PCs embedded within dashboards and in-flight entertainment systems to industrial automation systems and even ultra portable devices, the Pico-ITX can enable the design of full x86 computing devices in previously impractical locations and applications. Measuring just 10cm x 7. 2cm, the Pico-ITX is currently the smallest complete x86 mainboard in the industry, smaller than all existing ATX, BTX and ITX form factors. It is the latest advance in mainboard design, and the third generation of platform size reduction from VIA: VIA Form Factor Mini-ITX Nano-ITX Pico-ITX Dimensions 17cm x 17cm 12cm x 12cm 10cm x 7. 2cm Announced November 2001 March 2004 April 2007 Remarkably, a board area reduction of exactly 50% has occurred at each stage of miniaturization, and the overall reduction in size over this period, between the MiniITX and the Pico-ITX is greater than 75%. Achieving these levels of miniaturization has been made possible by VIA's principal product design strategy, which has focused on enhancing power efficiency, thermal management and feature integration across the silicon and the platform level. The typical physical dimensions (see Table 3 below) are very compact compared to other standard power supplies such as ATX. The options of AC 100 ­ 240V and 50 ­ 60Hz auto switching are fully supported. The onboard VIA processor in the nanoBGA2 package leverages its small die size and highly efficient CoolStream architectural design to deliver power consumption to below one watt when running in optimized low voltage mode.
