Intel Atom & IB882 & case & power consumption - advice needed

[nico.prenzel]

Hello Forum,

I do plan to buy this motherboard http://www.ibasetechnology.net/ib882.html to reduce my CO2 footprint.
Does anyone have already purchased the IB882 from IBASE and is compliant to support me with the following questions?

Which case did you use or advice me to buy?
What's the idle power consumption of IB882 motherboard?
What's the idle power consumption of IB882 motherboard and the case?

Thanks.

NicoP.

According to the datasheet, that board has a max power draw of around 19 watts. Not sure what you would be looking at for a full system, but should be pretty easy to stay under 30 watts. Also shows iBase makes a casing for it. Not sure if anyone else does, but I would doubt it. 3.5" Embedded is a "standard" form factor for embedded boards, but the actual designs vary wildly from board to board.
