pcITX is a motherboard form factor with a small size designed for compact PC builds.
expanded
The Information Technology eXtended (ITX) form factor is primarily used to build compact and space-efficient personal computers, offering a balance between size and functionality. It is essential for applications where minimal spatial footprint is crucial, such as in home theaters or small offices. ITX form factors often support integration with various standard hardware components, making them versatile for both consumer and industrial implementations.
examples
Usage of Mini-ITX motherboards in compact desktop PCs for space efficiency.
Commonly used in home theater PCs (HTPCs) or small office/home office (SOHO) environments where space is at a premium.
Implementation of Nano-ITX form factors in embedded systems.
Frequently used in embedded systems due to their small size, such as in digital signage or industrial control systems that require robust, compact computing power.
