DFI WCL051-BT-320 6-Core Intel Core 5 320 Pico-ITX Single Board Computer with Dual 2.5GbE, HDMI and LVDS

The WCL051-BT-320 is the Core 5 build in the DFI WCL051 series: a 2.5" Pico-ITX single board computer with a six-core Intel Core 5 320 at up to 4.6 GHz, dual 2.5GbE, HDMI and LVDS. It suits operator panels, SCADA clients and machine controllers that need more than an entry processor.

  • 6-Core Intel Core 5 320: Six Wildcat Lake cores from 1.5 to 4.6 GHz at 15 W, the middle clock option in the WCL051 series.
  • LVDS Panel plus HDMI: Dual-channel 18/24-bit LVDS at up to 1920 x 1200 for the operator panel, with HDMI at up to 4096 x 2160 alongside.
  • Up to 64 GB DDR5: One DDR5 SO-DIMM socket at 6400 MHz, sized at build time to the HMI, SCADA or analytics software you run.
  • Serial, DIO and Dual 2.5GbE: Two RS-232/422/485 ports and 8-bit DIO on headers, with two Intel I226V 2.5GbE ports for plant and machine networks.
  • Three M.2 and 12 V DC: E-key Wi-Fi, B-key 4G or 5G with nano SIM, M-key PCIe Gen4 x2 storage and a 12 V terminal block input.

WCL051-BT-320 Overview

Many HMI and machine-control designs need more than an entry-level processor but not the top clock bin. The WCL051-BT-320 sits in the middle of the DFI WCL051 series: a 2.5″ Pico-ITX single board computer with a six-core Intel Core 5 320, built to sit behind a touch panel or inside a compact controller housing.

The Core 5 320 is a Wildcat Lake processor with six cores, a 15 W TDP and clocks from 1.5 to 4.6 GHz. That is typically enough for SCADA clients, operator dashboards and light analytics running side by side. Intel Xe3 graphics adds hardware video decode, including AV1 and VVC, and one DDR5 SO-DIMM socket supports up to 64 GB at 6400 MHz, sized at build time to the software you run.

For the operator station, the board pairs dual-channel 18/24-bit LVDS at up to 1920 x 1200 with an HDMI output at up to 4096 x 2160, driving two independent displays. Networking is two 2.5GbE ports on Intel I226V controllers. Two rear USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports connect scanners or cameras, while internal headers carry two USB 2.0 ports, two RS-232/422/485 ports for PLCs and meters, and 8-bit DIO. Three M.2 sockets take Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (E-key 2230), 4G or 5G with a nano SIM (B-key 3042) and a PCIe Gen4 x2 SSD (M-key 2242).

The WCL051-BT-320 runs from 12 V DC on a terminal block and operates from 0 to 60 °C with the active cooler DFI supplies. It carries CE, FCC, UKCA and RoHS compliance and supports Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 24H2 or Linux. Choose the WCL051-BT-350 for the highest clock, up to 4.8 GHz, in multi-stream vision or gateway work, or the WCL051-BT-305 where a Core 3 at up to 4.3 GHz covers the workload.
