Kontron KTA55/pITX embedded single board computer

The 2.5″ Pico-ITX embedded single board computer KTA55/pITX is said to be Kontron’s smallest SBC platform based on the AMD embedded G-series with Fusion technology.

With its range of dedicated interfaces, small footprint (100 x 72 mm) and low power requirements, the SBC is claimed to be the fastest entry into the development of graphics-intensive small form factor applications.

With the device, OEMs can use DirectX 11, full HD video display (1080 i/p), dual-screen control and reduce development time for small box applications such as those found in the latest digital signs and user-friendly sales kiosks.

With 9 W TDP for the accelerated processing unit - which integrates one or two 64-bit processor cores, a programmable graphics unit plus a PCI Express Gen 2.0 controller and a DDR3 RAM controller - the computer is suitable for low-power applications. Developers can rely on existing cooling concepts from Kontron’s portfolio and accelerate the system development.

Target applications include all SFF applications with high graphics and video performance requirements. That includes POS/POI multimedia kiosks and dual-screen installations in infotainment systems, control rooms and machine controls.
