Heterogeneous core technology for multifunctional embedded client systems

Computer-on-Modules with 12th generation Intel Core processors (formerly codenamed Alder Lake) deliver tremendous performance scalability with their 4 to 16 cores and 8 to 24 threads. Their hybrid architecture, with Performance- and Efficient-cores, suits a wide range of applications, from industrial workstations to workload consolidation in IoT-connected machines and systems. To ensure high cybersecurity, the IIoT gateway functions are implemented in real-time capable virtual machines instead of containers. Meanwhile, these new Computer-on-Modules also solve many of the procurement problems OEMs face for their existing products.

Multitasking at the edge

In the past, there was rarely a need to put much emphasis on a high number of cores as most established embedded systems had little parallel processing to do. With Industry 4.0 and IIoT digitization, this picture has dramatically changed. IoT gateways and edge computers can hardly get enough cores. COM Express Type 6 modules with AMD Ryzen Embedded V2000 processor technology and RTS hypervisor support are a perfect for these IoT gateway application needs.
