DFI has announced the new HR908-B Type 6 COM Express Compact form factor. Based on the Intel Core QM67 Express chipset, the HR908-B is DFI’s new model supporing the low-power and cost-efficient 3rd/2nd generation Intel Core and Intel Celeron processors with BGA 1023 packaging technology. Offering higher performance at lower power consumption than the 2nd generation processors, the supported processors are built on Intel’s 22/32-nanometer process technology.

Targeted at medical and gaming applications, HR908-B brings enhanced graphics performance with Graphics APIs, including DirectX 11/10.1/10/9, and OpenGL 3.0, to support 3 display outputs in any combinations of VGA, LVDS and DDI (HDMI, DVI and Display Port) interfaces allowing you to choose the best combination to suit various requirements.

The integrated next-generation Intel HD Graphics 4000/3000 engine supports high-end enhanced media and graphics capabilities and improves performance. The Intel Clear Video Technology offers advanced imaging capabilities for Blu-Ray and other high definition video processing such as image stabilization, gamut mapping and frame rate conversion. Performance is further increased through the introduction of DirectX Video Acceleration for providing acceleration of complex audio, video, and image processing.

In system memory, the HR908-B mobile platform is equipped with one 204-pin DDR3/DDR3L SODIMM socket supported by DRAM device technologies for x8 and x16 devices to deliver maximum performance up to 8GB at 1066/1333/1600MHz for faster communication between components. Based on the application of Mobile Intel QM67 Express chipset, the HR908-B COM Express Compact form factor is designed with high performance and flexible I/O to provideincreased mobile computing and graphics performance, including High Definition Audio interface, 4-bit input and 4-bit output GPIO connector for device controls, 1 Intel Gigabit LAN controller integrated up to 1GB transceiver in order to increase transmission speed for network-intensive applications, 1 I2C interface, 1 SMBus interface.

In addition, the HR908-B form factor also supports multiple PCIe expansion configurations to offer additional capabilities for customers’ various demands. 1 PCIe x16 interface, and 1 PCIe x4 and 3 PCIe x1 interfaces (default); or 7 PCIe x1 interfaces are available for high performance graphics displays. The HR908-B mobile platform keeps steady for various environments when operating at the temperature range from 0ºC to 60ºC and the humidity range from 10% to 90%.

The HR908-B, a new COM Express Compact form factor combined with these features as described above, is an ideal product for a whole range of applications which require a stable revision-controlled platform, such as industrial control automation, digital signage, medical equipment, and KIOSK embedded applications.

The Advanced Host Controller Interface controller integrated into the HR908-B mobile platform supports 4 Serial ATA interfaces: 2 Serial ATA 3.0 ports with speed rate up to 6Gb/s and 2 Serial ATA 2.0 ports with speed rate up to 3Gb/s for RAID 0/1/5/10. With 8 USB 2.0 interfaces, this new mobile platform allows your system to process more data load and provides faster loading of frequently used applications.
