Embedding digitalisation into offshore wind
The offshore wind industry has become one of the UK’s success stories. In the past decade, the industry went from a capacity of 0.3 Gigawatts (GW) of power to 9.7 GW, and also generated almost ten percent of the UK’s total energy in 2019. However, this success brings similarly high expectations for the future, with a Government target of a 400 per cent increase in capacity by 2030.To achieve this, the sector must accelerate its adopti...
Ultra-rugged quad core module from congatec
congatec has introduced its new conga-TR4 COM Express Type 6 module with AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 Series processors for the industrial temperature range from -40 to +85°C. It is available with optional burn-in & cold-soak stress screening service for highest reliability.

congatec has recognised West Pond Technologies for its social isolation breaking AV headend technology. Stepping up to the challenges of social distancing triggered by COVID-19, West Pond is helping residents in senior living facilities to transcend their isolation by connecting them to the community around them.
Bringing digitisation to oil and gas
The offshore energy industry, whether it is oil and gas or offshore wind, is one underpinned by remote and distributed assets, critical operations and harsh environments. As such, it’s one of the prime sectors to benefit from digitisation and embedded technologies to support improved maintenance and monitoring.
Advanced connectivity for embedded vision and the edge
congatec has announced that SGET has approved the new SMARC 2.1 specification for embedded vision. With Christian Eder as editor, congatec was reportedly instrumental in shaping the specification.
SMARC modules make new 3.5” boards scalable
After its successful entry into the 3.5” SBC market in the middle of last year, congatec has now introded a new carrier board in this standardised footprint, which impresses with a socket for Arm based SMARC modules. Its I/Os are optimised for use with congatec's entire NXP i.MX8 module portfolio and it comes in 12 different processor configuration.
Cooling solutions for edge server ecosystem
congatec has presented three cooling solutions for the new 100W edge server ecosystem that is being built around AMD EPYC Embedded 3000 Series Processors. With rugged cooling solutions and processor modules for 24/7 operation from a single source, OEMs no longer need to think about how to design in a processor waste heat management system.
Processors bring compute power to industrial fields
congatec has announced that the new conga-JC370 3.5-inch SBC with 8th generation Intel Core processors (code name Whiskey Lake) has received excellent design ratings in independent studies carried out by Elektor Magazine and also earned phenomenal positions in UserBenchmark speed tests.
The impact of the new COM-HPC standard
It’s been three years since the latest Computer on Module (COM) specification, COM Express 3.0, was released for industry use. Now, the embedded computer industry is on the verge of a new standard: COM for high-performance computing (COM-HPC), which is due to be ratified this year.
From high-end to ultra-low-power edge servers
In its embedded world 2020 showcase, congatec has announced that it will be covering the entire spectrum of embedded edge computing, ranging from high-end edge servers to headless systems for ultra-low-power edge logic.
