COM Express & COM

ADLINK has just announced the Express-RLP COM Express Type 6 and COM-HPC-cRLS COM-HPC size C modules based on the new Intel 13th generation Raptor Lake hybrid processors with Embedded and Industrial SKUs.

The Express-RLP comes with an up to 14 cores, 20 threads Raptor Lake-P processor, 64GB DDR5 SO-DIMM, and PCIe Gen4, while the COM-HPC-cRLS offers up to a 24-core Rasptor Lake-S embedded processor, 128GB DDR5 SO-DIMM, PCIe Gen5, and 2x 2.5GbE LAN. Both modules support Intel TCC, and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN), and are suitable for hard real-time computing workloads required by applications such as industrial automation, autonomous driving, AI robots, and aviation.

Specifications:

Raptor Lake-P processors support the following features: Intel VT (including VT-x, VT-d, VT-x with Extended Page Tables), Intel HT Technology, Intel SSE4.2, Intel 64 Architecture, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, Intel AVX512-VNNI, Intel DL Boost, Intel TXT, Execute Disable Bit, Intel Data Protection Technology with Intel Secure Key, and Intel AES-NI.

The Raptor Lake-P module will support Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC and Ubuntu 64-bit, and Yocto project-based Linux 64-bit and VxWorks may also be supported, but this will have to be confirmed.

ADLINK can also provide the Express-BASE6 R3.1 ATX carrier board for the Express-RLP module for evaluation and early software development.

Preliminary specifications:

Raptor Lake-S processors support Intel VT (including VT-x / VT-d), Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, Intel VNNI, Intel TCC and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), Intel Hardware Shield, Intel TXT, Intel System Security Report, Intel APIC-v, Intel PTT, Intel TDT, Intel CET, Intel AMT, Intel UPID, Intel PMT, and Intel Thermal Velocity Boost (TVB). Note that some of the features may only be supported on specific SKUs.

ADLINK COM-HPC-cRLS module will support Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC, and Ubuntu 64-bit and VxWorks may also be, but they are shown as TBC in the datasheet. We are not shown any carrier board, but the company says it is working on COM-HPC and COM Express development kits based on Express-RLP and COM-HPC-cRLS modules, with carriers supporting USB4 and PCIe Gen5.

Both modules are preliminary, and we don’t have availability information. The specifications for the Express-RLP module are more complete, and we even get a block diagram, so it’s quite possible the COM Express Raptor Lake-P modules are closer to launch than the COM-HPC Raptor Lake-S models. More details can be found on the Express-RLP and COM-HPC-cRLS product pages.
