cExpress-AR

The cExpress-AR is the first Type 6 module on the market to support an octa-core (8-core) embedded SoC, with up to 16 threads and an impressive turbo boost up to 4.2 GHz. Processor choices include low power 8-core/6-core APUs with a configurable TDP between 10 and 25 watts and high performance 8-core/6-core APUs with a configurable TDP between 35 and 54 watts.

ADLINK’s cExpress-AR is also well suited for mission critical applications in harsh environments, featuring:

• Standard support for up to 64GB DDR4 in two SO-DIMMs
• ECC error correction based on selected SKUs
• Passive cooling and configurable TDP (down to 10W)
• 6 to 8 core offerings

With integrated new generation AMD Radeon Vega graphics, the cExpress-AR supports up to four independent 4K displays via DisplayPort, HDMI, DVI and LVDS. ADLINK also offers either eDP or analog VGA as build options by customer request. HEVC (H.265) 10-bit encoding and decoding is also supported by integrated hardware-acceleration.

The cExpress-AR, offers a range of high speed interfaces, including including 2.5GbE Ethernet that is fully compatible to 1 GbE, 6x PCIe x1 Gen3 lanes (optionally up to 8x lanes possible) and 1x PCIe x8 Gen3 (on PEG pins), and 4x USB 3.2 ports. These features are fully compatible with the COM Express Rev. 3 specification, allowing for existing systems to upgrade and gain in performance without changing the carrier design.
