Low power Pentium II powers CompactPCI

The Pentium II - Low Power, a recently released Pentium package for low-profile embedded applications, has been integrated into Ziatech Corp.'s family of CompactPCI single board computers, multiprocessing systems and high availability technology.

The new 266MHz and 333MHz processors significantly increase the performance of Ziatech's ZT 5531 CPU Board. The ZT 5531 capitalizes on the low profile of the Pentium II processor - Low Power to provide a single-slot CompactPCI solution.
