MSC HC-MB-EV

The MSC HC-MB-EV is intended for design teams that require an easy and fast enablement of COM-HPC based solutions for lab evaluation, rapid prototyping and application development. Engineers can use it as a reference design for developing their own COM-HPC platform. The COM-HPC Client carrier provides a rich set of COM-HPC Client interfaces routed to the module socket including PCIe and PEG ports, DDI and eDP graphics interfaces, and high speed I/O like USB and SATA. COM-HPC Client modules of either Size A, B and C can be installed on the carrier.

MSC HCC-CFLS

The MSC HCC-CFLS module is the first member of the new COM-HPC product family. It enables a PICMG COM-HPC Client interface and features size C module format. The Client interface offers a wide range of I/O, including multiple graphics interfaces, 1G and BASE-T Ethernet as well as PCIe and USB data paths. Designed for the 9th Generation Intel® Core™ S-Series Processor family, the module comes with the greatest scalability, from cost efficient Pentium up to most performant Core i7 processor. Depending on selected processor variant up to eight cores can be utilized by most demanding applications. A total of 64GB of main memory provides extended and reliable space for data intensive tasks.

The graphics units on the MSC HCC-CFLS provide highest level graphics acceleration and hardware based video en/decoding. They connect to three DDI interfaces and one eDP display port allowing for a maximum of three independent displays at up to 4k x 2k resolution. The 16 lane width PEG port based on PCIe Gen 3 gives system designers the possibility to integrate external graphics and AI accelerators into their application. Further I/O include additional PCIe lanes, USB 3 Gen1 and 2, SATA, 1G and 2.5GBASE-T Ethernet and GPIOs. For lab evaluation, rapid prototyping and application development Avnet Integrated offers the MSC HC-MB-EV, a COM-HPC Client carrier.
