Terminals that know their peripherals — and recover on their own
A kiosk is judged by what hangs off it: receipt printer, card reader, scanner, cash drawer — some still speaking LPT or PS/2. The board must carry every protocol, ride the store’s power, and come back to the same application state without a field visit.
LPT + PS/2 + 6 COM · WATCHDOG 0–255 S · DC 12–24V · NANO-ITX 120×120
At The Retail Edge
Four things a terminal does differently
- Peripheral stack: the TOP600B keeps LPT 2×13-pin, PS/2 and six COM on headers — receipt printers, scales and card readers connect without protocol converters.
- Self-recovery: the TOP600B ships a 0–255 s watchdog and AT/ATX power modes — a hung payment station power-cycles itself instead of waiting for a technician.
- Wide-enough power: the ITX660B accepts DC 12–24V at 120W+ — tolerance for the long, thin cabling of real storefronts and mixed AC/DC installations.
- Small enclosures: the AD600NA at 120×120 mm fits slim kiosk bodies, with 2× HDMI 4K, DP 8K and Type-C driving touch panels and secondary displays.
Recommended Models
Three boards for a terminal fleet
Every field below is stated on the model page — headers, power ranges and footprints are quoted as published.
TOP600B
Alder / Raptor Lake · 28W
LPT, PS/2, six COM, watchdog 0–255 s, dual i226 2.5G, B-Key 4G/5G.
Why: LPT/PS/2 headers plus watchdog cover legacy receipt printers and unattended self-recovery.

ITX660B
LGA1700 · 12th–14th Gen
2× HDMI 2.1 4K + 2× DP 8K, four COM, PCIe x16, DC 12–24V 120W.
Why: DC 12–24V rides storefront power runs; quad display covers order screens and menu walls.

AD600NA
Alder Lake · 28W
120×120 NANO-ITX, 2× HDMI 4K + DP 8K + Type-C, dual M.2 NVMe, DC 12–19V.
Why: compact 120×120 footprint with 8K-capable output fits slim kiosk bodies and panel mounts.

From peripheral list to running fleet
Four steps we walk with integrators on every kiosk or POS roll-out.
Peripheral map
List every device — printer, reader, scanner, drawer, camera — with its interface: LPT, PS/2, COM or USB.
Board match
Pick the model whose headers carry each protocol; confirm CPU, memory and panel output at order time.
Fleet hardening
Watchdog, AT/ATX auto-boot, one DC brick class per model — burn-in tested before the batch ships.
Deploy & service
Configured per station; remote service plan over the board’s management and connectivity options.
Questions
Kiosk & POS, answered
The TOP600B keeps an LPT 2×13-pin header, PS/2 and six COM ports on board — legacy printers, scales and readers connect without protocol converters.
The TOP600B carries a 0–255 s watchdog plus AT/ATX power modes, so a hung payment station power-cycles itself and boots back to the application without a technician.
The AD600NA measures 120×120 mm and drives 2× HDMI 4K, DP 8K and Type-C — touch panels and secondary displays in compact kiosk bodies.
