The Mini-ITX Motherboard format was specified by VIA in 2002 as a platform to promote their C3 CPU and chipsets. Since then many manufacturers worldwide have produced Mini-ITX form factor motherboards with almost any CPU imaginable. Commell have been at the forefront of advanced Mini ITX motherboard developments being the first to announce the availability of the boards.

Mini-ITX is a specification for a motherboard measuring 170 x 170 mm with a conventional I/O shield as used on larger scale motherboards. The layout on-board varies from manufacturer to manufacturer but most boards have a PCI slot in a standard location or a PCIe slot and on many embedded motherboards, one or two MINI-PCI or Mini-PCIx slots.
