Compact Platform with Industrial and Medical Certifications
January 31, 2001
 Taipei, Taiwan - Advantech's 10" slim Panel Computer now incorporates Pentium® III processors to enhance the computing performance. The PPC-103T is derived from the PPC-102T, the award winner for product design innovation. It has the same features and functionality as the PPC-102T, while providing higher computing power. With a compact profile, the PPC-103T is ideal for applications that require a high performance computing system for tight spaces. Most importantly, the PPC-103T is EN60601 certified to qualify for medical system integration with strict safety standards.
Medical-grade Computing Platform with Industrial Legacy
The PPC-103T is not only a rugged and reliable computer for industrial applications. It also endured strict testing to be medically certified. The PPC-103T provides a high level of safety for both healthcare professionals and patients in any clinical environment. This product humanizes and streamlines medical networking by providing the healthcare professionals with the ability to access patient data in real time, and doctors and nurses can make instant decisions from a remote site.
Other than medical applications, the PPC-103T's optional touchscreen creates an ideal user interface for process control and information retrieval applications. Operations become easier by simply touching on-screen icons. The PPC-103T with an intuitive user interface is ideally suited for limited spaces that cannot accommodate a mouse or keyboard.
The PPC-103T shares the same powerful features of an advanced desktop computer, while occupying a small space of 342 x 265 x 61.5 mm (13.5" x 10.4" x 2.4") and weighing only 3.5 kg (7.7 lbs). The PPC-103T's single board computer accepts Intel Celeron TM and PentiumŪ III processors for advanced processing and multimedia capabilities, including a 16-bit Sound Blaster controller. It integrates a 10.4" TFT LCD display with resolution up to 800 x 600 at 256K colors. The high-brightness LCD is suitable for all environments and light levels. In addition, the PPC-103T's front panel meets IP-65 standards for protection against humidity, vapors and dust of harsh industrial environments. Additional features for easy system integration include:

Additional features for easy system integration include:
10/100Base-T Ethernet interface for networking
Four COM ports, three RS-232 ports and one RS-232/422/485 port, provide comprehensive communications capabilities.
On-board sound card: Built-in 16-bit Sound Blaster Pro compatible audio enhances multimedia applications.
Target Applications
The PPC-103T is a full-function computing platform designed for integration in medical applications as well as with point of sale, point of information, building automation and production control systems. It provides several installation options to cope with different application environments, including wall mounting, panel mounting, swing arm, and a specially designed desktop stand. The PPC-103T can also be used in publishing, food and pharmaceutical production facilities. Semiconductor manufacturers in the United States, Japan and Taiwan use Advantech Panel Computers for operator interfaces in their wafer manufacturing plants. With the intuitive interface of Panel Computeres, machine operators are able to monitor processes and enter information on the touchscreen without having to remove their protective clothing.
