CPU-180-01, a new embedded module for edge computing

Eurotech launches a new embedded module product portfolio with the CPU-180-01, a high performance fanless module for edge computing.

CPU-180-01 is a fanless COM-HPC Client module with 11th Gen Intel Core processors to work in harsh environments. CPU-180-01 has 4 processor cores, Intel Iris Xe graphics with up to 96 execution units and up to 32GB in-band ECC LPDDR4. It features an all-soldered down design to improve resilience and thermal coupling and comes with a -40 to +85°C operating temperature and a 15 to 28W TDP. The physical dimensions of CPU-180-01 measures 95x120mm (Size A) and is claimed as the smallest module with a COM-HPC form factor.

The other features of CPU-180-01 include Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) on a 2.5 Gb Ethernet port, which combined with Time Coordinated Computing (TCC) enables soft Real Time applications. TSN is an evolution of the Ethernet standard that provides time determinism to networked communications, while staying completely compatible with the existing Ethernet infrastructures. TCC bridges the synchronization of the internal clocks with the network to achieve microsecond accuracy.

The CPU-180-01 features the latest high-speed interfaces: PCIe Gen 4, with a bandwidth that is twice the previous generation and Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4 that enables PCIe, Video, USB and Power Delivery over a single, standard connector, said in the release.

"The feature set offered by the 11th Gen Intel Core processors is so rich and advanced that it really benefits from the new COM-HPC Client form factor" commented Giuseppe Surace, Eurotec's Chief Product and Marketing Officer "The CPU-180-01 targets AI, soft real time and advanced graphics applications at the Edge, and offers a standardized, future-proof building block for fanless devices that must be reliable, efficient and with a long life-cycle".

Supported operating systems include Everyware Linux (based on Yocto), Linux and Windows 10 IoT Enterprise; additionally, the CPU-180-01 supports Everyware Software Framework (ESF), a commercial, enterprise-ready edition of Eclipse Kura, the open source Java/OSGi middleware for IoT gateways.

The CPU-180-01 is offered in a range of configurations; additional personalization is available through Eurotech Professional Services.

Product availability: Q2 21.
