Advantech Unveils MIC-330V2 Next-Gen 3U CompactPCI® Serial SBC Powered by Intel® 11th Gen Processors

Kunshan,China, June 2024 – Advantech,a global leader in AIoT and Edge Computing, is excited to introduce the MIC-330V2, a cutting-edge single-board computer (SBC) that redefines industrial computing standards. Powered by the latest Intel® 11th Gen Xeon® W and Core™ i7 processors (codename: Tiger Lake-H), the MIC-330V2 is designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern edge computing applications. This platform boasts significant enhancements over its predecessors, delivering improved power efficiency and performance thanks to its new 10nm process.

Versatile Configurations for Diverse Industrial Needs

The MIC-330V2 conforms to the CPCI-Serial standard, offering a wide range of configurations from quad-core to octa-core processors with TDP ranging from 25 to 45 watts. This flexibility allows for scalable system design, catering to diverse industrial application needs, including robotics, machine control, industrial automation, telecommunications, medical equipment, energy sector applications, ground transportation, avionics, shipbuilding, and other embedded markets.

Enhanced Performance and Compact Design for AI and Image Processing

Compared to the traditional CompactPCI standard (PICMG2.0 R3), the MIC-330V2 offers a 20x data transfer improvement over PCI Express lanes and an 80x total data transfer improvement when utilizing Ethernet, SATA, and USB. This provides higher performance while maintaining mechanical backward compatibility with CompactPCI. With the increasing demand for powerful computing capabilities in smaller form factors, the MIC-330V2's 3U form factor (100 x 160 mm) is ideal for various field applications. It serves not only as a single CPU board but also as a powerful edge computing unit with multiple serial bus resources routed to the backplane.

Flexible Expansion Possibilities and Rugged Design for Harsh Environments

The MIC-330V2 offers a range of connectivity options, including 2 x PCIe 3.0 x8, 4 x PCIe 3.0 x4, 2 x PCIe 3.0 x1, 2 x GbE, 2 x USB 3.0, 8 x USB 2.0, and 2 x SATA 3.0. This allows easier integration of customer-designed cards or Advantech's off-the-shelf standard peripheral I/O cards. The MIC-330V2 is also designed to meet EN50155 and IEC 60601 standards, making it suitable for railway and medical scenarios. It features a rugged design and a wide operating temperature range (-25°C to 70°C), ensuring reliable operation in space-limited, high-vibration, and harsh rolling stock environments.

Summary

With its proven Eurocard mechanics and extensive real-time O/S support, the MIC-330V2 stands out as an ideal solution for applications requiring low to moderate cost, modularity, and mission-critical performance. Its robust design and versatile connectivity options make it suitable for a wide range of industrial uses. Additionally, the MIC-330V2’s ability to operate reliably in harsh environments and its high performance within a compact form factor ensures that it meets the stringent demands of modern edge computing applications.
