DFI CS632-Q370CRM Intel Coffee Lake Core Industrial ATX Motherboard with Q370 Chipset, Dual LAN and Six Expansion Slots

A machine builder refreshing a controller design often keeps one or two proven PCI cards while moving motion and I/O to PCIe. The CS632-Q370CRM is the Q370 build of the CS632 series, an industrial ATX motherboard with two PCI slots, four PCIe Gen3 slots, six COM ports and M.2 NVMe storage on 8th and 9th Gen Intel Core.

Its LGA1151 socket takes Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 processors, from the four-core i3-9100E at 65 W and i3-8100T at 35 W to the six-core i7-8700 and the eight-core i7-9700TE at 35 W, plus dual-core Pentium G5400 and Celeron G4900 for lighter duties. Four DDR4 2666 MHz DIMM slots take up to 128 GB of non-ECC memory. Intel UHD Graphics drives VGA and two DP++ outputs as three independent displays, and Intel AMT on the I219LM port works with Core i5 and i7.

Expansion is a PCIe x16 Gen3 slot, three PCIe x4 Gen3 slots, two PCI slots and a Mini PCIe slot for Wi-Fi or mSATA, with a two-slot x8/x8 layout available to order. Storage covers an M.2 PCIe x4 NVMe socket and four SATA 3.0 ports with RAID. The rear panel has four USB 3.1 Gen 1 and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports, two GbE ports and an RS-232/422/485 DB-9, and headers add seven USB ports, five COM ports and 8-bit digital I/O.

The CS632-Q370CRM runs from a standard ATX supply over 24-pin and 8-pin connectors, with an active CPU cooler, from 0 to 60 °C, and carries CE, FCC and RoHS compliance. For Xeon E processors and ECC memory with the same slots and serial ports, choose the CS632-C246CRM.
