39Top/s of AI on COM Express Type 6 Compact

Congatec has introduced COM Express Type 6 Compact computer-on-modules with AMD Ryzen Embedded 8000 processors, offering up to 39Top/s for AI processing.

The processors have up to eight Zen 4 cores, 16Top/s XDNA NPUs and AI-capable Radeon RDNA 3 graphics with up to 12 compute units, and are available with design powers from 15 to 54W (see table below).

Conga-TCR8 is the name of the modules, and they support up to four displays with resolutions as high as 8K – there are six PCIe Gen 4 (8 lanes) with PEG x8 Gen 4, three DisplayPorts, and one eDP or LVDS.

Mass storage can be integrated through two SATA 6Gbit/s ports or an optional NVMe SSD directly on the module.

Other IO includes four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, audio, SPI, UART, I²C and GPIO.

“The new modules are also available application-ready, with custom pre-installed and validated operating systems like ctrlX OS, Ubuntu and, or, RT Linux,” said Congatec. “On request, the modules can be pre-installed with the customer’s application, allowing plug-and-play integration into the finished system.”
