Adlink Technology has unveiled the newest member of its computer on module (COM) family. The Express-LPC measures 95 x 95mm and is fully compatible with the type 2 pin out of the PICMG COM Express specification.
The technology is positioned as an entry level, cost effective module with a strong performance per watt ratio. It is targeted at calculation intensive applications such as robotics, test and measurement, entry level medical diagnostics and industrial automation.
Based on the latest Intel Atom processors, ranging from the dual core D525 at 1.8GHz to the low voltage single core N455 at 1.66 GHz, the Express-LPC supports up to 4GB of ddr3 memory on two SODIMM sockets. Adlink says this support brings significant cost advantages.
The unit is equipped with integrated graphics support for analogue vga and lvds. It supports five PCI Express x1 lanes via the Intel I/O Controller Hub 8 Mobile chipset, 1Gbit Ethernet connection and three SATA channels. Legacy support is provided by a single Parallel ATA channel, 32bit PCI bus and low pin count bus.
The Express-LPC is available with an onboard IDE-based ssd up to 8GB and comes with an integrated trusted platform module to provide secure storage of encryption keys for system and data protection. The module is equipped with AMIBIOS8, supporting embedded features such as remote console, cmos backup, cpu and system monitoring, watchdog timer, and oem splash screen.
