FORTEC Integrated Introduces the New iBASE 3.5" Single Board Computer IB961
High Performance for Edge Computing in Transportation, Industrial Automation, and Medical Technology
Germering (Germany) March 5, 2024 – FORTEC Integrated (Distec GmbH), one of the leading German specialists in industrial TFT flat screens, embedded products, and system solutions, presents the new IB961 SBC from iBASE. It is equipped with powerful Raptor Lake Intel® Core™ processors, offering 4 to 6 performance cores and 4 to 8 efficiency cores depending on the version. Thomas Schrefel, Product Manager Embedded at FORTEC Integrated / Distec, explained: "In this hybrid architecture, the E-cores handle system tasks efficiently, while the powerful P-cores are only activated when high computing power is required. This creates a highly efficient platform for applications such as onboard computers, infotainment, or vehicle control systems." The IB961 also finds diverse applications in industrial automation as well as medical and laboratory technology.
With up to 32GB DDR5 SO-DIMM memory and Hyper-Threading, the IB961 processes more information in less time. Its versatile interfaces make it a true all-rounder: Up to 4 displays can be easily controlled via two DisplayPort 1.2, one LVDS, and one eDP interface. Six USB ports allow for easy connection of additional peripherals, such as touchscreens. Two 2.5Gbit/s LAN interfaces and three M.2 (M-Key, E-Key, B-Key) slots provide optimal connectivity options and serve as a basis for Wi-Fi and 5G communication.
A wide input voltage range of 12 to 24V and an operating temperature range of 0 to 60 °C complement the IB961's high flexibility for versatile applications.
