Kontron introduces COMe-cVR6 (E2) Module with new AMD Ryzen™ Embedded V1000 Processor
Kontron, a leading global provider of IoT/Embedded Computer Technology (ECT), introduces its new COMe-cVR6 (E2) Module in the COM Express® Compact Type 6 form factor. It is based on the new AMD Ryzen™ Embedded V1000 processor, which sets the benchmark for high-end embedded computer modules. The COM Express® Compact module's smaller form factor significantly saves space in comparison to most comparable solutions, allowing developers to create more compact designs with higher performance. Variants of the COMe-cVR6 (E2) are also resitant to vibration and shocks thanks to their permanently soldered memory, just as all other components, such as voltage dividers, capacitors, and controllers are selected for highest resistance to environmental stresses. The new COM Express® module is particularly suitable for applications in harsh environments, medical or industrial image processing systems, as well as complex automation systems.
