Axiomtek SHB140 PICMG 1.3 single-board computer

Axiomtek has announced the SHB140, its PICMG 1.3 full-sized single-board computer based on the 14 nm 6th generation Intel Core processor in the LGA1151 package with Intel Q170 Express chipset. The SHB-based CPU card supports PCI Express Gen 3.0 with data rates up to 8 GT/s and comes with two DDR4-2133MHz unbuffered DIMM sockets supporting up to 32 GB.

Combined high-bandwidth PCI Express for frame grabbing and conventional PCI expansion for motion capture, the Intel Skylake SHB140 is suitable for machine vision and smart factory automation applications. The high-performance SBC also features an integrated Intel AMT 11 and TPM 1.2 for high security and easy maintenance.

The product offers 10 USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, two gigabit LAN ports, DVI-I, HD audio, one RS232/422/485 port, five RS232 ports, and six SATA-600 supporting RAID 0/1/5/10. Additional expansion interface options include one PCIe x16 Gen 3, one PCIe x4 Gen 2 or four PCIe x1, and four 32-bit PCI bus masters.

The powerful industrial SBC provides good operation with watchdog timer. The platform is fully compatible with Axiomtek’s PICMG 1.3 full-size passive backplanes. Additionally, its LPC bus offers a low-cost and straightforward way to continue using legacy devices.
