Intel ATOM-based COM-Express Mini embedded computing module introduced by Advantech for industrial applications

TAIPEI, Taiwan, 13 April 2012. Advantech in Taipei, Taiwan, is introducing the SOM-7565 COM-Express Mini module for small-form-factor embedded systems and low-power handheld and portable devices in transportation, factory, medical, and point-of-sale applications. The 84-by-55-millimeter computer mezzanine board -- about the size of a business card -- is powered by the Intel Atom processor N2600.

The SOM-7565 complies with the COM R2.0 type 10 specification for small-form-factor embedded computing applications. The computer on module consumes about eight Watts during heavy loading with its dual-core processor.

The SOM-7565 comes with soldered onboard memory and a solid-state drive to reduce the effects of shock and vibration. The Advantech iManager provides a suite of programmable APIs such as multi-level watchdog, hardware monitor, and other interfaces.

Features include PICMG COM R2.0 Type 10 pin-out compatible Mini module for Intel Atom processors N2600; Intel gfx support for DX9 and OGL 3.0; supports for 18-bit LVDS, HDMI/DVI/DisplayPort; onboard 2-gigabyte DDR3 800 memory and 4-gigabyte solid-state drive; support for 3 PCI Express x1, 1 SATAII, 8 USB2.0, Gigabit Ethernet, LPC, SMBus, and I2C Bus; and support for Advantech iManager 2.0 and software APIs.
