Kontron introduces COM Express modules, COMe-bRP6, COMe-cRP6 and COMe-mRP10, based on 13th Gen Intel Core (former codename Raptor Lake-P).

They offer a significant increase in performance compared to the previous generation and are equipped with up to 14 cores based on Intel performance hybrid architecture. The 13th generation is particularly well suited for demanding industrial IoT applications.

The new COM Express modules based on 13th Gen Intel Core technology Raptor Lake-P are supporting up to 14 cores (up to 6 P-cores and up to 8 E-cores) based on Intel performance hybrid architecture. Up to 96 graphics execution units driven by Intel Iris Xe graphics deliver high-performance graphics and fast video processing for impressive experience and highly parallel AI workloads with four display pipes and Pipelock synchronization.

The modules come with either DDR5 SO-DIMMs or LPDDR5 soldered down memory with up to 64 GByte resp. 32 GByte for the COMe-mRP10 and up to 2.5 Gbit Ethernet, including TSN support (on dedicated SKUs). As storage medium, a NVMe SSD up to 1 TByte can be optionally integrated onboard.

Due to the scalable SoC and performance range, Kontron will provide the new technology on three COM Express form factors: Basic and Compact (Pin-out Type 6 compliant) as well as Mini (Pin-out Type 10 compliant). For the first time, Kontron offers the IntelCore Technology on COM Express mini, allowing customers to benefit from an extremely high performance in a small form factor.

One of the key innovations here is bringing the Intel Core platform to the COM Express mini form factor, which we previously only offered with Intel Atom processors. This will be a huge step up in compute and graphical performance. We are now able to address the long-term market needs of the smallest COMe form factor. Thus, we enable our customers to manufacture even smaller and more highly integrated systems on the Intel Core performance level”, explains Peter Müller, VP Product Center Modules at Kontron.

The COM Express modules provide essential, industrial-grade features such as support for In-Band Error Correction Code (IBECC) memory, Intel Time Coordinated Computing (Intel TCC), Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) and an extended temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C (operating). Selected SKUs are compliant to industrial use conditions of 100 per cent operation over 10 years for best-in-class durability. IoT differentiation also guarantees long-life availability.

All features are perfectly suited for applications in demanding areas such as industrial automation, health care and the automotive sector. The Kontron COM Express Eval Carrier 2 Type 6 with 5 mm COMe connector offers a set of standard interfaces, thus optimizing the design-in and evaluation tools for the COMe-Type 6 Modules.
