EPIC-ADN9-A10-0002 has an Atom x7425E paired with a single DDR4 SODIMM slot for up to 16Gbyte of dram and 6Gbit/s SATA for bulk storage – on-board expansion slots include: full-sized mSATA, full-size mPCIe and one M.2 2242 B-key.

 

For displays, there is one connector each for LVDS, DisplayPort and HDMI.

Four 2.5Gbit/s Ethernet channels are brought out through RJ-45 ports, along with two external connectors for RS232, 422 or 485 – and the latter augmented by four RS-232 channels available though board headers.

 

 

USB is taken care of by 2x 3.2 Gen 2 and four 2.0 ports.

 

On top of these interfaces are 16 digital I-Os, audio in-out and provision for a NanoSIM. A nominally 5W loudspeaker output is an option, as is TPM security.

 

Operation is over single-rail 9 to 24V and 0 to 60°C – the board is designed the board to be passively cooled.

 

64bit Windows 10 is supported, as is Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (Kernel 5.19).

 

The company emphasises multiple options for image acquisition and high-resolution display, and proposes the board for signage and entry-level gateway devices.

 

The board shares a product page with similar boards that have other processors and interface mixes.
