Mobile-ITX is the smallest x86 compliant motherboard form factor. It was announced by VIA Technologies at Computex in June, 2007. The motherboard size is 75mm by 45mm, smaller than a business card. The design is intended for ultra-mobile computing such as a smartphone or UMPC.

The prototype boards shown to date include a x86 compliant 1Ghz VIA C7-M processor, 256 or 512 megabytes of RAM, a modified version of the VIA CX700 chipset (called the CX700S)[1], an interface for a cellular radio module (demonstration boards contain a CDMA radio), a DC-DC electrical converter, and various connecting interfaces.

At the announcement, an Ultra-Mobile PC reference design was shown running Windows XP Embedded.[2]
