Mini-ITX motherboard with ARM processor has NVIDIA Tegra 3 on board

Kontron has unveiled its first embedded ARM-based motherboard in the Mini-ITX form factor (170mm x 170 mm). The Kontron KTT30/mITX is equipped with NVIDIA's Tegra 3 super processor and combines outstanding media performance with particularly low power consumption. With its integrated, ultra low-power GeForce GPU, the ARM Cortex-A9 900MHz Quad-Core processor board offers 3D graphic performance and delivers a total energy consumption of just under 7 watts.

Besides the numerous USB and RS232 interfaces, several audio and video interfaces, as well as miniPCIe extension slots, the Kontron KTT30/mITX offers a selection of interfaces to suit nearly every possible application.

The extremely low-power consumption facilitates small passive cooling solutions, which additionally reduce the bill of materials and development effort while simplifying implementation. Due to the board's low height of just 15.2 millimeters, extremely flat systems can be built and mounted directly onto the back of monitor and video panels, i.e. for HMIs or cost-efficient digital signage players. In addition, the board supports Full-HD (1080 p) video for both playback and recording purposes, making it an ideal platform for video conferencing systems or security applications.

The Kontron embedded motherboard KTT30/mITX supports Android and Linux and is available now.
