What Is a Nano ITX Motherboard?
Nano ITX motherboards are ultra-compact mainboards measuring just 120mm x 120mm. Developed by VIA Technologies, this form factor is smaller than Mini ITX and is typically used in applications where space-saving is critical. Despite their small size, they pack impressive functionality, offering onboard processors, rich I/O options, and support for key technologies like Wi-Fi, HDMI, and USB 3.0.
These boards are often fanless, leading to quieter operation and reduced maintenance features that are particularly valuable in settings such as automated retail systems, media players, and edge computing environments.
