ASRock Industrial IMB-X1244-WV Intel Core Series 2 and 14th Gen W680 Mini-ITX SBC with 12-28V DC Input, ECC and LVDS/eDP

Equipment builders who fit a board inside a machine often have a DC supply to work from and a panel to drive, and some want ECC memory too. The ASRock Industrial IMB-X1244-WV is a W680 Mini-ITX SBC for that brief, taking Intel Core Series 2 (Bartlett Lake-S) and 14th, 13th and 12th Gen Core processors up to 65 W in an LGA1700 socket. It can suit machine control, vision and medical or test equipment builds.

Two DDR5 SO-DIMM sockets take ECC or non-ECC memory at 4800 or 5600 MHz, up to 96 GB. ECC is the main reason to choose the IMB-X1244-WV over the Q670 IMB-1244-WV, which shares its layout. A right-angle PCIe x16 Gen4 slot supports a riser card split as x8/x8, so cards can lie flat in a slim enclosure. Storage runs from two M.2 Key M sockets at PCIe Gen4 x4 (one also carrying SATA) and two SATA 6Gb/s ports, with Intel VMD RAID 0 and 1. Windows 11 and Linux are supported.

At the rear are two HDMI 2.0b ports, one DisplayPort 1.4a, four USB 3.2 Gen2 ports, audio, an Intel I226V 2.5GbE port and an Intel I219LM GbE port with Intel vPro and AMT. Internal LVDS and eDP 1.4b connectors bring the total to four displays. Headers add two USB 3.2 Gen1 and four USB 2.0 ports, three COM ports (two RS-232/422/485, one RS-232), four GPI and four GPO lines and a watchdog. M.2 Key E takes optional Wi-Fi, and M.2 Key B with a SIM socket takes optional 4G or 5G.

Power is 12 to 28 V DC through a four-pin wafer connector, in AT or ATX mode. The board is rated from -20 °C to 70 °C in operation and -40 °C to 85 °C in storage, carries CE and FCC marks and has an onboard TPM 2.0. We supply the IMB-X1244-WV with the processor, memory and storage fitted and tested, on its own or built into a complete system. For rear COM ports and a PCIe Gen5 slot, the IMB-X1238 is the W680 alternative.
