Welcome to the WARRIOR eVIEW from Stealth Computer Corporation, featuring our latest product information and successful application stories on Industrial PC’s and Peripherals.


Shhhhhh ! Stealth releases their Fanless LittlePC
STEALTH MODEL: LPC-301FL

Designed without cooling fans the rugged extruded aluminum chassis acts as a heat sink to dissipate internal heat and provide noise free operation. Stealth’s new Model LPC-301FL Fanless Little PC is a small footprint PC that features an Intel ULV Pentium 400MHz processor that offers optimal heat dissipation and power consumption.

The rugged all aluminum small form factor chassis measures only 10” x 5.7” x 2.8” in size making it ideal for deploying in space challenged applications such as Kiosks, Embedded Control, Thin Clients, POS & Human/Machine Interface applications. Stealth’s Fanless PC runs MS-Windows, LINUX and other embedded and RTOS.

FAQ- USB VS FireWire
Whats the skinny?

The ever-present Universal Serial Bus (USB) is now a standard feature on virtually every new PC. The "jack-of-all-trades" nature of USB has made it ideal for connecting additional peripherals without opening the computer. The drawback of the original USB standard (v1.1) was its relatively slow speed however most new PC’s have adopted version 2.0 offering theoretical speeds up to 480Mbs. Both USB and Firewire feature "hot-swapping", which means you won't need to shut down and reboot your PC to attach or remove a peripheral.

FireWire, (technically known as IEEE 1394) is a serial input/output technology invented by Apple Computer with data transfer rates up to 400 megabits per second. A FireWire upgrade has been released and IEEE 1394b will offer transfer rates of up to 800 Mbps, reportedly fast enough to copy an entire CD in seconds. Firewire 800 is starting to show up in the market now with mass-market adoption expected in 2004.

While the two serial buses seem similar, they are intended to fulfill different bandwidth and cost needs. 1394 can move more data in a given amount of time, but is considerably more expensive than USB due to its more complex protocol and signaling rate. Applications that are best suited for 1394 are disk drives, high quality video streams and other high bandwidth applications. USB is appropriate for middle and low bandwidth applications such as audio, scanners, printers, keyboards, and mice.

USB and 1394 are complementary technologies. 1394 is for devices where high performance is a priority and price is not, while USB is for devices where price is a priority and high performance is not.
