DFI launched the Mini-ITX form factor SB330-CRM scalable desktop platform offering higher processing performance, superior graphics display support, and evolutionary memory system and I/O interface improvements. This embedded board uses an Intel® Q67 chipset supporting the quad core Intel® Core™ i7-2600 and i5-2400 processors, and dual core Intel® Core™ i3-2120 processor utilizing 32-nanometer process technology. The graphics and processor cores are integrated on a single monolithic die and provide Intel® HD graphics support for DVI-I and VGA display interfaces. The new 32-nanometer Intel® Core™ microarchitecture provides higher performance at lower power than previous generation processors, and includes the first quad-core Intel processor with an integrated graphics core. Performance is further increased through the introduction of Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX) to the instruction set, providing acceleration of complex audio, video, and image processing.
In addition, this new platform supports Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology and
improved Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, which enables each processor core to
handle two instruction threads and dynamically increase the clock speed when all cores
are not fully utilized. This provides increased performance over the previous generation
platform for both multi-core and non-multi-core optimized application programs. The
combination of Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, improvements in Intel Turbo Boost
Technology, and the new three-level cache subsystem insures higher performance at
reduced power consumption across a broad-spectrum of embedded processing
applications.

Support is provided for up to 32GB of DDR3 1066/1333 MHz dual-channel system
memory, two Gigabit LAN controllers, DVI and VGA display interfaces, Intel® vPro™
Technology features (Intel® Active Management Technology 7.0, Intel® Virtualization
Technology, and Intel® Trusted Execution Technology), as well as optional Trusted
Platform Module (TPM 1.2). The integrated Intel® HD graphics engine supports six
graphics execution units with dynamic turbo boost to accelerate video processing, and
Intel® Clear Video Technology providing advanced imaging capability for Blu Ray° and
other high definition video processing.

The SB330-CRM also supports Intel® HD audio with S/PDIF input/output interface, four
Serial ATA ports with speed up to 3Gb/s, two Serial ATA ports with speed up to 6Gb/s,
RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 disk configuration, twelve USB 2.0 host controller ports, and one PCI
Express x16 expansion slot (Gen 2), one PCI Express x4 expansion slot, and one PCI
expansion slot.

This embedded microATX board is ideal for applications requiring a stable
revision-controlled platform such as industrial control automation, digital signage, kiosk,
medical equipment, telecom, and gaming embedded applications.
