Gigabyte introduces new ultrabook and smartphone at Computex Taipei 2012
Gigabyte Technology maintains a well-deserved reputation as a major motherboard maker and vendor but the company has also become a talented and successful notebook designer over the past five years. Speaking to Digitimes prior to the Computex Taipei 2012 show, Gigabyte indicated that throughout its experience in the notebook industry and its many years of involvement in the motherboard and graphics card business, the company has kept an overriding goals of providing its clients with the best quality and delivering satisfaction.The following are excerpts from the interview.Gigabyte ultrabooks at ComputexWith ultrabooks becoming the latest topic and trend in the spotlight for the IT market and at Computex, Gigabyte has prepared a 14-inch ultrabook for demonstration at the show. The machine features Intel's latest Ivy Bridge-based Core i5 processor, DRAM support with no size cap, a full-set of I/O ports, a mid-range discrete graphics card and weighs only 1.5kg. The ultrabook will be ready for mass production and shipments in early June.For the ultrabook chassis, Gigabyte has adopted a metallic top bezel to maintain sturdiness and an elegant design. The rest of the chassis parts, such as the panel and keyboard frames as well as bottom bezel, are all produced with plastic supplied by Gigabyte's subsidiary in China. This vertical integration allows Gigabyte to achieve advantages in terms of supply smoothness and cost.The company has also been researching and developing new materials such as glass fiber to reinforce the chassis' sturdiness in order to help reduce the high costs of adopting metal chassis and provide customers ultrabook products at more cost-friendly prices.At the same time, Gigabyte also wants to provide users with ultrabook products that have the best performance and functions. Due to the limited thickness of an ultrabook, most of Gigabyte's competitors are reducing the number of I/O ports, such as USB, that are available on the notebooks. However, Gigabyte has chosen to feature a four USB-ports design for its ultrabook with two of the port specifications even being USB 3.0. In addition, the company is providing all the standard I/O ports such as D-sub, HDMI, LAN and even the latest Thunderbolt, to continue satisfying its customers with the best functions.As for performance, although Intel's original intent for the ultrabook was for vendors to adopt its ultra-low-voltage (ULV) processors to reduce power consumption, Gigabyte does not wish its ultrabook to be limited by performance. So the company has decided to adopt a standard voltage (SV) notebook processor for its ultrabook and is using its self-developed dual-fan cooling system to dissipate heat. To optimize performance, the company even equipped Nvidia's GeForce GT 640M discrete graphics card with 2GB of RAM into the machine for consumers to enjoy multimedia and gaming applications.The ultrabook is also armed with a hybrid storage system, composed of a 9.5mm hard disc drive (HDD) with a density of either 750GB or 1TB, and a 128GB solid-state drive (SSD) paired up with Intel's Rapid Start technology. This combination allows users to resume their ultrabooks from deep-sleep state to ready-for-operation in only seven seconds, while users will still be able to have enough storage space for their files.For the display, Gigabyte has adopted a HD+ quality panel for its ultrabook with a resolution up to 1600x900, higher than standard 14-inch notebook panels of 1366x768, in order to bring its customers the best image display among all ultrabook products. The ultrabook also features an illuminated keyboard.In line with Intel on ultrabooksAlthough Gigabyte's ultrabook is equipped with leading-edge specifications, the device is still capable of delivering five hours of operation before needing to recharge, meeting Intel's requirements for an ultrabook.However, since Intel has been pushing for US$699 ultrabook price points, Gigabyte may release a related notebook to meet this target, but the company pointed out that most of the unique features and the best specifications that Gigabyte wishes to provide to customers may not be included in a US$699 machine.Gigabyte noted that some consumers have misunderstood the idea of ultrabooks, thinking that the devices are simply notebooks with ultra-thin designs. The general belief, therefore, is that customers are paying a premium simply for a thinner form factor. However, Gigabyte pointed out that the extra cost comes from an increased number of features and better specifications that the company wishes to offer its clients.If Gigabyte decides to offer an US$699 ultrabook, the company expects that as long as the goals for component cost are met, the machine will appear before consumers in the near future, as its experience with thin design and chassis technologies will allow it to develop the product with no serious issues.Gigabyte pointed out that the ultrabook notebook market will still face strong challenges in the future. The economies in the US and Europe remain weak, and China demand growth is slowing. Competition from mobile devices such as tablet PCs and smartphones also mean that mobile computing customers will have more choices.In addition to ultrabooks, Gigabyte's gaming notebook business is also being aggressively promoted at Computex. The company plans to showcase its first gaming notebook model to feature an Nvidia's GeForce GTX 660 discrete graphics card, while Gigabyte also has put its exclusive dual-fan design into the device to help cooling for both the CPU and GPU.The company also cooperated with an international designer to create the gaming notebook's industrial design that features functions such as a Blu-ray drive, hybrid storage system and a 15.6-inch panel, the machine will be priced at only NT$48,900. In the future, Gigabyte is aiming to add new specifications such as a 17-inch panel and RAID support for the gaming notebook products.Currently, Gigabyte considers the 15.6-inch gaming notebook just an entry-level product. As the company gains more experience, it is set to launch mid-range products by the end of 2012 and high-end products in 2013.As for the tablet PC business, facing strong competition from Apple's iPad and Amazon's Kindle, there is not much room for other tablet vendors to survive in the consumer market; therefore, currently, Gigabyte is mainly supplying its tablets to enterprise and vertical markets.In addition to Windows-based tablets, Gigabyte has also developed models featuring an ARM-based processor and Android OS. The company's Windows-based models saw strong interest from the enterprise market in 2011 and the product has already been upgraded with the latest Atom processor. Gigabyte is also already planning to upgrade the processor again when Windows 8 launched. The company has also prepared a full set of accessories such as an extra battery, keyboard and docking station for its tablets to satisfy various needs of enterprise customers.As for whether the company has plan to develop docking station for ultrabook, Gigabyte pointed out that it has considered it, but is still evaluating the idea and the company is most likely to adopt soft docking, meaning to connect external devices through Intel's Thunderbolt technology; however, the company is in no rush to release any product yet and will first observe ultrabook demand to find any lacked functions of the device that can turn into sub-accessories.Gigabyte is showcasing its latest ultrabook design - the X11 - featuring an 11.6-inch panel and a carbon fiber reinforced plastic chassis to greatly reduce its weight to less than 1kg and its thickness to only 0.3cm. The machine will be available in July with a price range between US$999-1,299.The X11 is equipped with Intel's latest Ivy Bridge-based Core processors and 128GB of solid state drive (SSD), while supporting USB 3.0 and Bluetooth 4.0. In addition to hardware designs, the X11's built-in Smart Recovery technology will allow users to restore hard drives.For Windows 8, Gigabyte plans to launch an 11.6-inch touchscreen panel-based ultrabook at the end of 2012. The device only weighs 1kg.P2542G_GOLDEN001U2442_P010-1U2442_P010-3X11_P003-4X11_P009-1

AMI combines several key technologies to realize DIGBIL a business model for Digital Signage, Advertising and Cloud Computing
American Megatrends Inc. (AMI) is a well-known vendor of BIOS, and for providing the most advanced software/hardware, utility programs and complete solutions to IT players, while in Taiwan's IT ODM industry, the company also maintains long and stable partnerships with the supply chains of computer systems such as notebooks, motherboards, desktops and servers.In addition to its BIOS product line, AMI also has several other important business units including network attached storage (NAS); remote management; server and datacenter management; Instant On operating system; Fast Boot; television and multimedia center; porting of Linux and Android; hardware technologies supporting Microsoft's RemoteFX for thin clients; and R&D for ARM-based embedded systems. Most of these product lines are only known by a few people and since most of the businesses are operating in Taipei, it has allowed the company's Taiwan branch to become AMI's largest office in world, while also the fastest in development.To fully use its advantages in technologies from multiple different industries, AMI is integrating technologies and developing them into completely different forms. Compared to its strategy of mainly focusing on creating economies of scale, AMI has developed a brand new business model targeting services as the core. Before Computex 2012 takes off, AMI vice president Clas Sivertsen gave an in-depth introduction of its developed new business unit.AMI combines its technologies introducing DIGBILClas Sivertsen pointed out, "To put it simply, our innovation goal is to integrate many of AMI's technology advantages to create a new business model." Seeing that many of the existing Internet service giants have chosen the media advertisement business as an important foundation to success, AMI has chosen digital signage as its major focus for development and launched the DIGBIL system.DIGBIL is an abbreviation of "DIGital BILlboards". Integrating AMI's expertise from many different industries and through the Internet's flexible and scalable characteristics, the company is building an advertisement system that can be accessed at any time, and that is easy to manage through the Internet.For vendors that are currently running a digital signage business, no matter if it is the venue manager or advertising platform manager, DIGBIL makes it simple to establish a signage platform that is easy to install, maintain, and continue to expand in the future, helping vendors achieve maximum results by increasing their advertising locations.From the perspective of a company or a personal advertiser, compared to the past method that vendors needed to negotiate with platform providers to broadcast their advertisements, they can now directly control their digital billboards and content through DIGBIL's web portal, reducing the complicated process of contact and communication with providers. The method will also allow the sale of digital billboard advertisements to become easy and convenient like Internet advertising, allowing advertisers to achieve maximum results from an innovative digital signage business model.Clas further pointed out that AMI's biggest advantage is that the company holds key technologies, and with the participation of its major partners, a complete DIGBIL system can be established and integrated quickly. Currently, the industry still categorizes digital signage as an embedded system, but through the integration of AMI's firmware, operating system and software, paired up with hardware such as motherboards and ARM-based processors that are known for low power consumption, and Linux-based operating systems that have extraordinary performance, the digital signage system can cross into many different sizes of devices ranging from small displays in the back of the seat of a taxi to large outdoor digital signage systems satisfying the needs of different advertisers all accessible through a single portal.As for servers, AMI is also an expert in BIOS and remote management technologies, especially over the configuration of firmware, and management tool software, as well as datacenter-level management, allowing the easy-to-expand DIGBIL platform to easily become an indestructible foundation between cloud computing eco-systems and Web portals. AMI has deployed the very latest technologies in Cloud Computing and Scalable Web Services to create DIGBIL.Innovations trigger the accumulation of talent; Taiwan will have a better chance than Silicon ValleyClas pointed out that the manufacturing of digital signage requires three major components - the first one is LCD panels and Taiwan is one of the major supply sources worldwide; the second is LEDs and Taiwan's LED production capacity is also already at the top-tier level; and the third is motherboards and embedded systems and Taiwan is already the largest supply source worldwide - with the above advantages, Taiwan vendors are currently taking the leading role in the digital signage industry.With AMI's technologies plus its close relationships with Taiwan-based vendors, the cooperation will allow Taiwan-based makers to escape from their existing economic model of pushing volume for small profits, and accelerate to an economic model that focuses on services and creates opportunities for a new wave of industrial upgrades. This is also the most important reason why AMI, after careful evaluation, chose Taiwan instead of Silicon Valley in California, as the base for development, Clas said.The easy-to-use DIGBIL business model has attracted first-tier talent worldwide to join AMI's Taipei R&D team and these experts have made numerous contributions targeting new-generation technologies. At Computex 2012, AMI will display a brand new 82-inch glasses-free visual 3D display technology at its booths to allow digital signage products to enter the uncorrected visual industry, and the company is humbly inviting all players in the IT industry to visit and to have a glimpse of DIGBIL's brand new developments.AMI vice president Clas Siverstein

Risun offers active thermal solutions for LED lighting
Originally the world-leading micro-fan supplier for the cooling of pico projectors, mobile internet devices (MIDs), and ultra-thin computers, Risun Expanse Corp. has made strong moves into a new horizon, the active thermal solutions for LED lighting.By adding two round-framed axial cooling fans, RRA3008 (Φ30×8mm) and RRA6016 (Φ60×16mm) to the product lineup, Risun is turning a new page on the cooling of high power LEDs.In response to the eco-friendly appeal for energy-saving and low carbon emission, LED has long been regarded as the viable alternative to inefficient incandescent lamps and eco-unfriendly compact fluorescent lamps. However, on the way to become a truly general lighting solution, there are several issues left to be tackled for LED. One major issue of LED is the luminous decay caused by high power and temperature from the ever-increasing demand for high brightness output. The elevated temperature will pose a serious problem to the service life of LEDs.For the capability of pure passive cooling means, such as heat sink, to keep up with the heat-generation rate of high power LEDs, the size and weight of heat sink will usually go up to an unreasonable level, making it impractical for the cooling of high brightness LEDs and setting the stage for the active cooling fans with much higher cooling efficiency.Rated at 5V and about 0.35W, both RRA3008 and RRA6016 adopt a stator structure with an axial air-gap and without iron cores or silicon steel stacks, which is unprecedented among LED cooling fans usually consisting of a stator structure with a radial air-gap and silicon steel stacks, the causes of induced eddy current losses, higher fan power, and poor fan efficiency. Without silicon steels, the diameter of fan impeller can be smaller and the length of fan blades longer, meaning a cooling fan can achieve the same performance at a lower rotation speed and therefore lower noise level compared to its counterpart with silicon steels.RRA3008 is aiming at the cooling for LED lights, such as MR16 and E27, with input powers up to 12W; while RRA6016 for LED highbay lights with input powers up to 50W. Other features include a service life over 30,000 hours at 60J and IP57 ratings. Moreover, total LED cooling solutions are also available in the form of thermal modules combining LED cooling fans, advanced heat sinks, and innovative thermal designs.To sum up, Risun's LED cooling fans have the unique stator structure with an axial air-gap and without silicon steels, leading to a lower fan power, higher fan efficiency, lower rotation speed and lower noise level. By embedding Risun's active thermal solutions in LED lighting, the customers can build LED products with greater added-values, featuring lighter weights and compact sizes, higher powers, more lumens, less luminous decay, higher efficiencies, and longer service lives.Risun is exhibiting its products at Nangang Exhibition Hall, K1203.
