Avalue EMX-PTLP-H404-A1R Intel Core Ultra 5 325 (Panther Lake) Thin ITX Motherboard with 12 to 24 V DC Input and Dual LAN

A self-service kiosk that recognises products, a retail screen that measures audience or an HMI with voice and vision features needs AI inference beside the application, but rarely a full-length GPU. The EMX-PTLP-H404-A1R is the Core Ultra 5 build in the Avalue EMX-PTLP series of Thin ITX motherboards, rated at 47 TOPS of AI performance on a 170 x 170 mm board.

Its Intel Core Ultra 5 325 is a Panther Lake processor with eight cores, eight threads and a 25 W TDP, a good fit for inference on a few camera streams, HMI software and media playback at once. Two DDR5 6400 MHz SO-DIMM slots take up to 64 GB. Intel Xe3 graphics drives HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a at up to 7680 x 4320 at 60 Hz, two USB-C ports with DisplayPort Alt Mode and an internal eDP or dual-channel LVDS panel, with up to four independent displays.

One 2.5GbE port on an Intel I226LM controller and one GbE port on an Intel I210AT controller split the camera or device network from the uplink. Four USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports and three internal USB 2.0 connections take cameras, scanners and touch controllers. Five COM headers, two RS-232/422/485 and three RS-232, plus 16-bit DIO connect payment and control devices. Two M.2 M-key NVMe slots run at PCIe x4 Gen 5 and Gen 4, an M.2 B-key with a SIM slot takes 4G or GNSS, and an M.2 E-key takes Wi-Fi. This build has no PCIe card slot.

The EMX-PTLP-H404-A1R runs from 12 to 24 V DC with AT or ATX power modes, operates from 0 to 60 °C with 0.5 m/s airflow on an active CPU cooler, and carries TPM 2.0 with CE, FCC and RoHS compliance. Where the project needs 16 cores or a PCIe card, the EMX-PTLP-H484-A1R adds the Core Ultra 7 356H, 50 TOPS and a PCIe x8 Gen 5 slot.
