congatec First to Enable New Level of Performance for Demanding Mobile Computing Market

The conga-BM45 is equipped with Intel Core2 Duo processor T9400 which operates at 2.53 GHz and utilizes 6 MByte L2 cache and a front side bus at 1066 MHz. The module can be equipped with a maximum 8 GByte DDR3 dual channel memory. When comparing this with DDR2 memory, the power consumption of DDR3 is ~20% lower.

The Intel GMA 4500MHD, which is a chipset integrated graphics controller, supports DirectX10 and hardware decoding for HDTV video streams. In order to reduce power consumption, the clock speed and voltage supply are adapted to the software utilization of the graphics controller.

Depending on the software application the graphics performance of the conga‑BM45 can be up to three times faster compared to the same application running on a Mobile Intel GME965 Express chipset-based platform.

The conga-BM45 has unmatched graphics output flexibility. Both independent graphic pipelines can use either 2x24 Bit LVDS, SDVO, TV-Out, analog VGA or one of the new interfaces DisplayPort and HDMI. The conga-BM45 implements the new VESA standard DisplayID and EPI (Embedded Panel Interface) in parallel allowing for automatic recognition of the attached flat panel display.

Five PCI Express lanes, PCI Express Graphic (PEGx16), eight USB 2.0 ports, four SATA-2 interfaces as well as signals for two ExpressCards allow for fast system extensions. Fan control, LPC bus for slow speed extensions and HDA, a high performance digital audio interface, complete this full feature set.

Consistent low power design and ACPI 3.0-compliant enhanced power management with battery support features enable the conga‑BM45 to meet the needs of the ever demanding mobile computing market.

The integrated gigabit Ethernet controller is equipped with Intel Active Management Technology (Intel AMT) 4.0. This enables remote control and management of embedded computer solutions.
