The CPU board uses the Freescale single-core P2010 and dual-core P2020. On-board memory on the embedded computingboard products include as much as 2 gigabytes of DDR3 memory and 512 kilobytes of non-volatile magneto resistive random access memory. MRAM is high speed non-volatile RAM with unlimited read/write access that protects data in the event of a power loss and does not require periodic refresh. MRAM is for critical non-volatile data storage, data logs, dynamic program updates, and dynamic security.

Connectivity includes three Gigabit Ethernet ports, one USB 2.0 port, five serial ports, one internal SATA port and one XMC site. A hard drive mounting kit is available for Serial ATA or solid-state hard drives.

The extended temperature models feature an operating temperature range of -40 to 71 degrees Celsius. Storage temperatures are from -50 to 100 C. Both models are capable of operating under as much as 5G of vibration (15 to 2000 Hz) and can withstand an 11 millisecond shock of as much as 30G. Conformal coating is also available.
