The smallest version in this product family is the conga-CS45 COM Express Compact module with an Intel(r) Celeron(r) M 723 processor and an Intel(r) GS45 chipset. With 1.2 GHz and a 1 MB L2 cache, this ultra low voltage processor model provides sufficient performance for a range of applications. It supports up to 4 GB DDR3 SO-DIMM memory. Due to its compact 95×95 mm size, the conga-CS45 is predestined for mobile applications such as ruggedised handhelds. In the laboratory with SiSoft Sandra in Dhrystone ALU mode it achieves 7342 MIPS with a power consumption of 10 watts.
A more up-market model is the conga-BS45 module (95 x 125 mm) with an Intel(r) Core(tm) 2 Duo SU9300 processor, 1.2 GHz, 3MB L2 cache and the Intel(r) GS45 chipset with support for up to 8 GB DDR3 Dual Channel memory. In a direct comparison with the conga-CS45 in the laboratory, it achieved 9740 MIPS with a TDP of 10 watts. The corresponding dual core application could, for example, be an automation control station with real-time visualisation in which hyper threading technology enables each core to run its own independent operating system.
The high-end module is the conga-BM45 (95 x 125 mm) with the Intel(r) Core(tm) 2 Duo T9400 processor, 2.53GHz, 6MB L2 cache and the Intel(r) GM45 chipset. The computer-on-module (COM) provides the required processor and graphics performance for performance-hungry gaming systems, for example, and can be equipped with up to 8 GB DDR3 Dual Channel memory. In the laboratory it achieved an impressive 23,366 MIPS with a TDP of 35 watts.
All COM Express modules in the 45 series offer great performance and considerable graphics flexibility. The two independent graphics pipelines can be used for 2×24 bit LVDS, SDVO, TV-Out, analogue VGA as well as new interfaces such as DisplayPort and HDMI. All COM Express modules are now available in series production volumes.
