Click2Contact

congatec introduces the 12th Generation Intel Core mobile and desktop processors (formerly code named Alder Lake) on 10 COM-HPC and COM Express computer-on-modules. Featuring the latest high-performance cores from Intel, the modules in COM-HPC Size A and C as well as COM Express Type 6 form factors are designed to offer performance gains and improvements for the world of embedded and edge computing systems. Particularly impressive is the fact that engineers can now leverage Intel’s innovative performance hybrid architecture.

Offering up to 14 cores/20 threads on BGA and 16 cores/24 threads on desktop variants (LGA mounted), 12th Gen Intel Core processors are said to offer a leap in multitasking and scalability levels. Next-gen IoT and edge applications benefit from up to six or eight (BGA/LGA) optimised Performance-cores (P-cores) plus up to eight low-power Efficient-cores (E-cores) and DDR5 memory support to accelerate multithreaded applications and execute background tasks efficiently.

Optimised for high embedded client performance, the graphics of the LGA processor-based modules deliver now up to 94% faster performance and its image classification inference performance has nearly tripled with up to 181% higher throughput, the company says. In addition, the modules offer large bandwidth to connect discrete GPUs for maximum graphics and GPGPU based AI performance. Compared to the BGA versions, these and all other peripherals benefit from doubled lane speed as they come with ultrafast PCIe 5.0 interface technology in addition to PCIe 4.0 off the processor. The desktop chipsets provide up to 8x PCIe 3.0 lanes for additional connectivity and the mobile BGA variants also offer up to 16x PCIe 4.0 lanes off the CPU and up to eight PCIe 3.0 lanes off the chipset.
