MEN Micro has announced the CB71C, a rugged COM Express module for rail, public transportation and industry applications.  The module is 100% compatible with the COM Express Type 6 pin-out and conforms to the VITA 59 standard, which specifies robust mechanics to ensure reliable operation under the harsh environmental conditions.
The CB71C Rugged COM Express Module can be equipped with the new Ryzen Embedded R1000 SoC in addition to the Ryzen Embedded V1000 SoC. The new AMD Ryzen Embedded R1000 SoC features a Radeon Vega graphics engine with three compute units and support for up to three displays with a resolution of up to 4k without additional graphics hardware. With up to four “Zen” processor cores, when using the AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000 SoC, the CB71C is also suitable for virtualization.

The module provides passive cooling and a temperature range from -40°C to +85°C are possible with the low-power versions. The CB71C can be equipped with up to 32 GB directly soldered DDR4 main memory and a 16 GB eMMC. PCI Express 3.0, DDI (DP, eDP, HDMI), SATA 3.0, Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 are available as high-speed interfaces.

The COM module has a board management controller with monitoring functions and a trusted platform module. The module also uses the Secure Memory Encryption capability in the AMD Ryzen Embedded R1000 SoC. That feature is essential for security-critical applications such as payment and ticketing terminals, fleet management or monitoring, according to MEN Micro.

Features:

• AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000/R1000 series
• Up to 32 GB DDR4 RAM with ECC
• Up to 4 Digital Display Interfaces (DP, eDP, HDMI, DVI)
• Hardware memory encryption
• Safety-relevant supervision functions
• Virtualization
• Supports up to -40°C to +85°C Tcase, conduction cooling
• VITA 59 in process, compliant with COM Express Basic, type 6
• PICMG COM.0 COM Express version also available
