and responds to the specific needs of the industrial edge, allowing direct image processing, the generation of useful information and autonomous decision-making without the need for a cloud connection or associated latency.
The 3.5”-SBC-PTL leverages an innovative computing architecture based on Intel® Core™ Ultra 3-series processors, supporting up to 16 cores, an integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for low-power AI inference, and up to 12 Xe GPU cores for high-performance AI (up to 180 TOPS) and video analytics.
This hybrid architecture enables the efficient execution of complex, parallel AI workflows without the need for a dedicated GPU, processing workloads directly at the data source and significantly reducing latency.
Thanks to Intel® Xe Matrix Extensions (XMX) and specific optimizations from OpenVINO™, the 3.5”-SBC-PTL further enhances the performance of each compute engine. It can also drive up to four simultaneous 6K displays, enabling ultra-high-definition visualization.
Enhanced Scalability:
The board integrates two DDR5 SO-DIMM sockets (up to 7200 MHz), three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (two Type-A, one Type-C), and two USB 2.0 ports (one Type-A). It features 2.5 GbE Ethernet with TSN and dTPM 2.0 support, ensuring real-time, low-latency communication, essential for real-time AI applications.
The 3.5” SBC-PTL offers three M.2 slots for SSDs, WLAN, Bluetooth, WWAN, and other expansions. Furthermore, it supports board-to-board and board-to-wire connectors for adding more I/O ports and additional graphics or AI acceleration cards, without the limitations of compact form factors.
Designed for demanding environments, the 3.5”-SBC-PTL supports a wide input voltage range (9V to 36V) and integrates a TPM 2.0 security chip to protect data, network access, and operational integrity against cyber threats.
Some versions are designed for continuous 24/7 operation under heavy loads and harsh conditions.
Variants are available for both industrial (-40°C to 85°C) and commercial (0°C to 60°C) temperature ranges.
Long-term availability
The 3.5”-SBC-PTL guarantees long-term availability of up to 10 years from its launch, thanks to the use of embedded components, and complies with CE, FCC, ICES, UKCA and UR (UL Recognized) certifications.
Samples of the KBox A-151-PTL will be available after the motherboard launch.
