With 14th Intel Core Generation
Congatec announces new COM-HPC modules
Congatec announces four new high-end COM-HPC Computer-on-Modules based on the 14th Generation Intel Core processors (codename Raptor Lake-S Refresh), which launched today. Representing an extension to the existing CoMs, the modules bring more power to industrial workstations and edge computers.
Thanks to Intel's improved production quality, clock frequencies have been increased, resulting in performance gains across the entire range. The Intel Core i7-14700 processor-based modules stand out with four additional E-Cores compared to the Intel Core i7-13700E variants, providing an additional performance boost with now 20 cores in total. Another new feature is the improved bandwidth of USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 with up to 20 gigabits per second.
The COM-HPC Size C form factor (120 mm x 160 mm) addresses application areas that require multi-core and multi-thread performance, large caches, enormous memory capacities combined with high bandwidth and advanced I/O technology. These include, for example, applications based on artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). In addition, there are all embedded and edge computing solutions with workload consolidation, for which congatec offers pre-configured real-time hypervisor technology in the module firmware. The target markets for the new congatec COM HPC Size C Computer-on-Modules include industrial automation and medical technology as well as edge and network infrastructure applications. They all benefit from the optimized computing cores of this hybrid performance architecture, which currently supports up to 8 performance cores and 16 efficiency cores.
The new »conga-HPC/cRLS« Computer-on-Modules in COM-HPC Size C form factor are available in many variants, shown in the picture. All variants of the Intel Core 14xxx Series are new.
Application engineers can deploy the new COM-HPC Computer-on-Modules on congatec’s Micro-ATX Application Carrier Board (conga-HPC/uATX) for COM-HPC Client type modules to instantly capitalize on all the benefits and improvements of these modules in combination with PCIe Gen5 connectivity.
