EC700-ASL-x7835RE Overview
Edge gateways that run protocol conversion, a historian and a local dashboard at once soon run short of cores, and outdoor sites add a wide temperature range on top. The EC700-ASL-x7835RE covers both: a fanless industrial computer from the DFI EC700-ASL series with an 8-core Intel Atom x7835RE, rated from -40 °C to 60 °C, with DFI Out-of-Band management built in.
The Atom x7835RE runs eight Amston Lake cores within a 12 W TDP and supports Intel Time Coordinated Computing (TCC, disabled by default in the BIOS). That gives room for several containers or virtual machines alongside control tasks. Memory is 16 GB of LPDDR5 4800 soldered down, with TPM 2.0 on board, and the EC700-ASL-x7835RE runs Windows 11 IoT Enterprise or Ubuntu 22.04 with UEFI boot.
Networking is two Intel i226 2.5GbE ports, with TSN available by project, and one Intel i210 GbE port that carries DFI OOB. Serial is two RS-232/422/485 and two RS-232 ports on DB9, with DIO on COM4, so PLCs, scanners and older serial kit connect directly. USB is three USB 3.2 Type-A and one USB-C with DisplayPort alt mode, which joins HDMI and VGA for three displays, plus a combined line-out and mic-in jack. Expansion is an M.2 M key 2242/2280 slot for NVMe or SATA storage, an M.2 B key 3042/3052 slot with SIM for optional 4G/5G and an M.2 E key 2230 slot for optional Wi-Fi. DFI OOB gives remote power on and off, reset and BIOS update over the network, without an OS agent.
Power is 9 to 36 V DC on a DC jack. DFI rates the EC700-ASL-x7835RE from -40 °C to 60 °C with 0.2 m/s airflow, with shock and vibration tested to MIL-STD-810G, and lists CE, FCC, RoHS and UKCA compliance. It fixes to a wall, a VESA plate or a DIN rail with optional kits. We supply it configured and tested, with storage, the OS image and any wireless modules fitted before it ships. The EC700-ASL-x7433RE is the quad-core 9 W build, and the EC70A-ADN offers an 8-core Core i3-N305 with three 2.5GbE ports for indoor sites.
