ASRock Industrial NUC 1300/D4 Motherboard Series 4x4 Motherboards with 13th Gen Intel Core, Quad Display and Dual 2.5GbE

Compact edge systems and display controllers are often built around a board of about 4 x 4 inches, yet the software still needs modern cores, several screens and fast networking. The ASRock Industrial NUC 1300/D4 series answers that brief with six 4×4 motherboards, also called NUC motherboards, that share one layout and differ only in the 13th Gen Intel Core processor fitted and its management features.

Every board measures 104 x 102 mm and stands 38 mm tall. Two 260-pin DDR4-3200 SO-DIMM sockets run in dual channel for up to 64 GB. Intel Iris Xe Graphics drives up to four displays from HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4a and two DP 1.4a outputs over the front USB4 and USB-C ports, with HDMI and DisplayPort at up to 4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz. Two 2.5GbE ports run on Intel I226LM controllers, and USB covers one USB4/Thunderbolt 4, five USB 3.2 Gen2 and two USB 2.0 on a header. Storage is an M.2 Key M on PCIe Gen4 x4 plus SATA3, an M.2 Key E 2230 with CNVi takes wireless, and one RS-232/422/485 header links serial equipment. TPM 2.0 is onboard.

The series offers the NUC-1315U/D4 with a Core i3-1315U and the NUC-1315UE/D4 with the embedded Core i3-1315UE, both with two performance and four efficient cores. The NUC-1340P/D4 carries a Core i5-1340P and the NUC-1360P/D4 a Core i7-1360P, each with four performance and eight efficient cores for multi-threaded work. The NUC-1335UE/D4 with a Core i5-1335UE and the NUC-1365UE/D4 with a Core i7-1365UE have two performance and eight efficient cores and add Intel vPro and AMT for remote management.

Power is 12 to 19 V DC on a DC jack, with AT and ATX power-on modes so a board can start when power arrives or wait for a button press. The series operates from -20 to 70 °C and can be stored from -40 to 85 °C at 5 to 90% humidity. A watchdog timer with 256 steps from 0 to 255 seconds resets the system if software stops responding, and Realtek ALC233/ALC256 audio feeds a front headphone and microphone jack. Designs where these specs fit include multi-screen signage, vision inspection, edge gateways and managed embedded fleets.
