Thunderbird-E3100

  • Mini ITX - Server Class Chipset - Intel Core 2 Duo

The Thunderbird-E3100 is a high-reliability, server-class Mini-ITX board for mission critical applications. Its E3100 server class chipset handles up to eight Gigabytes of error correcting registered DDR2 RAM (ECC RAM). Together with the Intel Core 2 Duo
processor, this chipset delivers maximum throughput while showing only little power consumption, typically just about 29 watts.
The Thunderbird-E3100 features an integrated graphics controller. Its powerful 64-bit graphics engine works with 16 MB video RAM and efficiently handles 2D operations. It supports graphics modes up to 16M true color and screen resolutions up to 1600 by 1200 pixels.
The board‘s interfaces comprise two Gigabit LAN ports, six USB2.0 host ports and six SATA AHCI ports. There even are two flexible serial interfaces available.
Two PCI Express x4 slots and a PCI Express Mini Card can be used to add more functionality.
The Thunderbird-E3100 comes with LiPPERT Enhanced Management Technology (LEMT) functionality. Together with its In Band and Out Of Band operation features, this allows remote control and condition management..

  On-time minutes counter Indicates the amount of time since last power on in minutes
  Power cycles counter Counts how often the module has been powered on
  Watchdog timer Set / Reset / Disable / Trigger Watchdog Timer
  System restart reason Power loss / Watchdog / External Reset
     
  Flash area 1024 bytes of Flash area for customer data
  Protected flash area 128 Bytes. Keys, ID’s, etc. can be stored in a write- and clear-protectable region
  Board identity Vendor ID / board ID / serial number
  Temperature Monitor Read the actual temperatures of the CPU and Board. Stores Temperatures at Power-up.
  Temperature Logger Stores Min-/Max-Temperature of the CPU and Board
  Voltage Monitor Read Onboard-Voltages
  Fan speed and control Read the actual Fan speed (controlled by CPU temperature)
