1. Introduction 
 
Thank you for choosing NOVA-7820 VIA
®
 C3 Processor CPU with Multimedia 
& LAN Ethernet Embedded Little Board, which comes equipped with Low 
power VIA
®
 C3 Processor CPU with the Intel advanced chipset 815E.  This 
product is designed for the system manufacturers, integrators, or VARs that 
want to build a low power consumption system. 
 
NOVA-7820 provides on-chip VGA which provides up to 1600 x 1200 
resolution.  LCD which provides up to 1024 x 768 resolution. 
 
An advanced high performance super I/O chip – W83627 and NS87366 is 
used in the NOVA-7820 board. Which provide four UARTs are compatible 
with the NS16C550. The parallel port and FDD interface are compatible with 
IBM PC/AT architecture's. 
 
The NOVA-7820 has one Fast Ethernet Multifunction PCI Controller as a LAN 
controller, Which are fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX LAN solution 
with high performance networking functions and low power features. 
 
This board has a built-in Compact Flash Disk Socket, CardBus, FireWire for 
embedded applications. 
 
For multimedia application, NOVA-7820 provides many function, such as 
1394 ,5.1 channel Audio and video in.
