ADLINK announces Express-CF/CFE the first COM Express COM.0 R3.0 Basic Size Type 6 module supporting the Hexa-core (6 cores) 64-bit 8th Generation Intel Core™ and Xeon processor (codename “Coffeelake-H”) with Mobile Intel QM370, HM370, CM246 Chipset. These Hexa-core processors support up to 12 threads (Intel Hyper-Threading Technology) as well as an impressive turbo boost of up to 4.4GHz. The Express-CF/CFE has up to three SODIMM sockets supporting up to 48GB of DDR4 memory while still fully complying with PICMG COM.0 mechanical specifications. Modules equipped with the Xeon processor and CM246 Chipset support both ECC and non-ECC SODIMMs. Integrated Intel Generation 9 Graphics includes features such as OpenGL 4.5, DirectX 12/11, OpenCL 2.1/2.0/1.2, Intel Clear Video HD Technology, Advanced Scheduler 2.0, 1.0, XPDM support, and DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) support for full H.265/HEVC 10-bit, MPEG2 hardware codec. Graphics outputs include LVDS and three DDI ports supporting HDMI/DVI/DisplayPort and eDP/VGA as a build option. In addition to the onboard integrated graphics, a multiplexed PCIe x16 graphics bus is available for discrete graphics expansion.
Input/output features include eight PCIe Gen3 lanes, a single onboard Gigabit Ethernet port, USB 3.0 ports, USB 2.0 ports, and SATA 6 Gb/s ports. The module is equipped with SPI AMI EFI BIOS with CMOS backup, supporting embedded features such as remote console, hardware monitor, and watchdog timer as ideal solution for gaming, medical and industrial process control applications.
