Compact and lightweight COM Express Module 

Display solutions and embedded systems provider, Review Display Systems (RDS) has announced the introduction of a new COM Express Type 10 CPU Module from AAEON, a leading provider of Computer-on-Modules.

The AAEON NanoCOM-RAP is powered by 13th Generation Intel Core U-series processors ranging from the Intel Processor U300E to the Intel Core i7-1365UE, and offers up to 10 core, 12 threads, and dynamic processor clock speeds using Intel Turbo Boost Technology to deal with heavy workloads. With the combination of high CPU performance and low processor power consumption, the NanoCOM-RAP has been designed and developed for customers who require a small, flexible and scalable computing solution.

AAEON has invested in the module’s memory and storage, equipping the NanoCOM-RAP with up to 16GB of LPDDR5 memory. Additionally, the NanoCOM-RAP offers two SATA drives, while further expansion can be supported with four PCIe slots. A further option of up to 128GB of onboard NVMe is also available.

Integrated Intel UHD Graphics support dual display outputs with DDI (Digital Display Interface) and eDP (embedded DisplayPort) interfaces with display resolutions of up to 3840 x 2160 pixels at 60Hz. This configuration, along with the module’s high-definition audio interface enables the NanoCOM-RAP to support visual-related applications.

AAEON’s COM express module line-up offers flexible interface options, and the NanoCOM-RAP provides a LAN port for Intel Ethernet Controller I226-IT at 2.5GbE and multiple USB ports including eight USB 2.0 and two USB 3.2 Gen 2. These interface options provide flexibility for the integration of peripheral devices such as cameras and sensors.

The NanoCOM-RAP module supports a wealth of serial communication options, including two 2-wire UART, an 8-bit GPIO, SMBus, and I2C, which enable the module to readily support industrial embedded and edge computing applications. The COM Express Type 10 module has a compact mechanical form factor of just 84mm (l) x 55mm (w) which enables integration in small, restricted access environments. A 9v to 15v power input range and onboard TPM 2.0 are also supported. The module supports multiple operating systems, including Windows and Linux, providing flexibility for developers in wide range of application environments.

The new AAEON NanoCOM-RAP COM Express module is now available from Review Display Systems.
