Mini-ITX motherboard

20 March 2013 Computer/Embedded Technology

Kontron has unveiled its first embedded ARM-based motherboard in the Mini-ITX form factor (170 x 170 mm). The KTT30/mITX is equipped with NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 super processor and combines enhanced media performance with low power consumption.

With its integrated, low-power GeForce GPU, the ARM Cortex-A9 900 MHz quad-core processor board offers impressive 3D graphic performance and delivers total energy consumption of just under 7 Watts.

These performance features make the board suitable for a wide spectrum of graphics- and video-oriented embedded applications like thin clients, panel PCs and mini-box PCs, as well as markets such as medical, rail traffic and public safety.

With its height of just 15,2 mm, extremely flat systems can be built and mounted directly onto the back of the monitor and video panels, ie, for HMIs or cost-efficient digital signage players. In addition, the board supports full-HD (1080p) video for both playback and recording purposes, making it relevant for video conferencing systems or security applications.

The KTT30/mITX enables lifelike 3D graphics with dynamic lighting at screen resolutions of up to 2048 x 1536 pixels. It also offers HDMI 1.4a and 24-bit LVDS video interfaces. Thanks to the integrated video encoder and decoder, as well as high-resolution video playback it offers real-time video compression, which can, for example, be supplied via the CSI/DSI camera port.

Peripheral devices can be connected via three USB 2.0 ports and two RS-232 ports. Operating system and application data can be hosted on the bootable eMMC. Two PCIe slots, one of which can also be used as an mSATA port, are available for application-specific extensions. An RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port and analog audio I/Os round out the feature set.

The motherboard supports Android and Linux.
