Fanless embedded board for IoT/M2M applications
A fanless 3.5" embedded motherboard, powered by the Intel Pentium processor N4200 or Celeron processor N3350 (codename: Apollo Lake), has been announced by Axiomtek. The CAPA312 was designed for operational stability in a wide operating temperature range from -20 to 60°C (or optionally up to 70°C) and requires only 12VDC power input. It also comes with rich I/O connectors, various display interfaces and two PCI Express Mini Card slots for a wide array of industrial applications.
This 3.5” embedded SBC is a performance-driven solution for IoT/M2M related applications, such as industrial automation, self-service terminals, digital signage, POS/kiosk displays and medical.
“With Intel Apollo Lake processor, Axiomtek’s industrial-grade 3.5" embedded board, CAPA312, provides high performance yet lower CPU power consumption. It features the newest 7th generation Intel HD graphics engine to deliver dual-view high-resolution HD support for display interfaces: HDMI, LVDS, VGA (optional), and eDP (optional). It is perfectly suited for graphics-intensive applications,” said Ken Lin, a Product Manager of Product Planning Division at Axiomtek. “Our design concept is to serve our business partners with the professional and flexible extreme compact embedded board of less project effort. The Intel quad-core Apollo Lake 3.5” single board computer delivers outstanding performance, trusted reliability, and flexible expansion features.”
The CAPA312 adopts one 204-pin DDR4-1867 SO-DIMM socket supporting system memory up to 8GB. Furthermore, the 3.5" embedded board comes with two RS-232/422/485, two RS-232, two USB 2.0, four USB 3.0, eight-channel digital I/O, HDMI, LVDS, audio, and dual Gigabit LANs with Intel i211AT Ethernet controller. It features one SATA-600 socket and one mSATA interface for storage needs. To ensure reliable operation, the 3.5” embedded SBC supports TPM 1.2, watchdog timer, hardware monitoring features.
