congatec increases the scalability of its COM Express Computer-on-Modules with two entry-level models based on the latest Intel 14nm microarchitecture (formerly codename Skylake). The Intel Celeron processor-based COM Express Basic and Compact modules combine cost efficient dual-core CPU performance with state of the art features such as 4k multiscreen support, high-speed DDR4 RAM with increased bandwidth and four USB 3.0 ports.

  congatec has announced that it fully supports the upcoming new SGET and PICMG CoM specifications SMARC 2.0, Qseven 2.1 and COM Express 3.0. Modules complying with these standards are already in development and will be announced in time with the launch of the next processor generations.

Expanding its COM Express portfolio, congatec has launched a module based on the AMD G-Series SOC (called Brown Falcon). Compared to modules based on the previous generation of AMD Embedded G-series SOCs, the conga-TR3 with dual-core AMD GX-217GI processor provides up to 30% more graphics performance and 15% more overall system performance.

Expanding its COM Express Basic Server-on-Module portfolio, congatec has announced a module featuring the Intel Xeon Processor E3-1515M v5, fast DDR4 memory and Intel Iris Pro graphics. The GPU of the conga-TS170 provides 128MB eDRAM and with 72 execution units it has three times more parallel execution power than the Skylake architecture without Iris graphics.

congatec has announced a family of highly scalable Thin Mini-ITX boards with Intel processors - from from 2.0GHz Intel Celeron up to 3.4GHz Intel Core i7. The conga-IC170 Thin Mini-ITX boards offer a fully configurable thermal design power from 7.5 to 15W and up to 32GB of DDR4 RAM as well as 4K multiscreen support.

congatec has introduced highly cost-effective versions of its existing COM Express and Qseven modules as well as Mini-ITX boards. They are all equipped with the strategically low-priced, long-term available Intel Atom x5-E8000 processor. This 64bit quadcore processor significantly lowers the entry threshold of powerful x86 computing and, now also in terms of price, offers developers a true alternative to competing platforms based on ARM technolog...

congatec has extended the life cycle of their AMD processor-based ETX and XTX computer modules at least until the end of 2019, extending the module availability from the usual 7 years to 12-14 years. The conga-ELX, conga-ELXeco and conga-XLX modules were launched in 2005 and 2007 with AMD Geode LX 800 500MHz processors. This announcement effectively doubles the standard availability of embedded x86 processor technology.

congatec AG has introduced COM Express basic modules parallel to AMD's launch of its next-gen high-end embedded processors. The conga-TR3 modules with dual- or quad-core AMD Embedded R-Series SOCs offer not only a much more broadly scalable TDP from 12 to 35W over earlier modules and a significantly improved performance per watt but two added features: high-performance AMD Radeon graphics as well as full support of the HSA specification 1.0.

congatec AG is to extend its industrial-grade Thin Mini-ITX motherboard portfolio to include graphics-rich conga-IA4 boards with 14nm Intel Pentium and Celeron processors (codenamed Braswell) and full Windows 10 support. Compared to their predecessors, the Thin Mini-ITX boards offer increased computing and graphics performance as well as support for up to three 4k displays.

congatec AG extends its portfolio of credit card-sized computer modules by integrating the 14nm Intel Pentium and Celeron processors (codenamed Braswell) on COM Express Mini modules. The conga-MA4 module enhances performance density, however heat dissipation has been lowered to a SDP (Scenario Design Power) of 4W, enabling very compact, passively cooled system designs.

congatec has announced the conga-TCA4, the company's first COM Express compact module based on the Intel Pentium and Celeron processors (codenamed Braswell). The robust COM Express modules consume just 4W on average while providing increased graphics capabilities and overall performance. Up to 16 graphics execution units can support up to three HD displays or two 4k displays and achieve a theoretical peak performance of 358.4GFlop/s.

congatec is extending its product portfolio for the most popular Qseven standard by now offering COMs in the 40x70mm sub-credit-card µQseven format. The first flagship module of this next-gen mini form factor is the conga-UMX6 with ARM Cortex A9-based Freescale i.MX 6 processors. It caters to applications in harsh environments, which require compact low-power designs, appealing multimedia and computing performance.

  Four COM Express compact modules have been introduced by congatec, parallel to the launch of the new 6th generation Intel Core processors. The devices are specially designed for challenging applications that demand high performance in sealed, fanless system designs.

congatec has announced the expansion of its industrial-grade Mini-ITX motherboard portfolio with two highly efficient low-power conga-IGX variants that are based on the Gen 2 AMD Embedded G-Series SoC processor (codenamed "Steppe Eagle") and feature powerful SoC integrated AMD Radeon graphics. The low-power motherboards are scalable with a TDP ranging between 5 and 15W max.

congatec has added to its COM Express Basic portfolio, announcing the conga-TS97 computer module with Intel Core/Xeon processors manufactured in 14nm technology. The conga-TS97 COM Express Basic module in the Intel Xeon version delivers server-grade performance for the first time and, compared to its predecessors, excels in terms of graphics due to the featured Intel Iris Pro technology.

  Adding to the Qseven family, congatec has announced the conga-QA4 module. The module features the latest Intel Pentium and Celeron processors based on 14nm technology. It has Intel Gen8 graphics with up to 16GEUs (Graphics Execution Units) and 4K (3840x2160px) resolution.

Presenting a wide range of innovations at this year's COMPUTEX show, will be congatec at stand K1015. The company’s two main product highlights will be the Qseven computer module, conga-QA4, and a Qseven IoT kit. The conga-QA4 module features the latest Intel Pentium and Celeron processors based on 14nm technology and offers great energy savings as well as increased computing power.

Congatec has extended the long-term availability of its AMD processor-based COMs from seven to ten years, securing the supply of Qseven, COM Express, XTX and ETX modules with AMD Embedded G-Series SoC in identical configuration for an additional three years. For the AMD Embedded G-Series SoC processors (formerly code named ‘Steppe Eagle’) this means an extension into the first quarter of 2024.

congatec AG has released a Qseven IoT kit that makes it quick and easy to develop IoT applications, providing a complete starter set for the rapid prototyping of embedded applications. The Qseven IoT kit contains a Qseven COM based on the latest Intel Atom processor technology, a compact IoT carrier board, a 7" LVDS single touch display with LED backlight, AC power supply and 802.11 WLAN antenna.

Congatec has released a versatile Pico-ITX SBC based on the Intel Atom E3800 processor series, with a footprint of 70x102mm. Real-time capability and support for multiple operating systems allow use in demanding industrial applications such as mechanical engineering or automation and control systems. The Intel Atom E3800 processors are also suitable for use in the extended industrial temperature range.
