EMBC-7000 Description

AI inference is moving onto the same compact boards that run machine control, so designers need a processor with an NPU, fast networking and a wide power input in a 3.5 inch footprint. The Vecow EMBC-7000 series answers that with Intel Core Ultra processors, which combine CPU, GPU and NPU in one hybrid architecture, and optional SUMIT B expansion for extra networking.

Every EMBC-7000 has one DDR5 5600 SO-DIMM socket for up to 48 GB and Intel Graphics driving up to four independent displays: HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 up to 4096 x 2304, DisplayPort 1.4 over USB Type-C and eDP up to 3840 x 2400 at 120 Hz. Networking is two Intel I226 2.5GbE ports with Time Sensitive Networking, with Intel vPro and TCC support. I/O covers two USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports, a USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C, two USB 2.0, RS-232/422/485 headers, two 8-bit GPIO headers and HD audio. Storage is an M.2 Key M socket on PCIe 4.0 x4 plus SATA III, and M.2 Key B with SIM and M.2 Key E sockets take 5G, 4G and Wi-Fi modules.

The EMBC-7000E-165U pairs the 12-core Intel Core Ultra 7 165U with a SUMIT B connector, which takes 10G LAN, 10G SFP+ or 4G expansion. The ordering table also lists Core Ultra 7 and Core Ultra 5 builds without SUMIT, with Core Ultra 200U processors by request. Vecow rates the Intel AI Boost NPU at 11 TOPS and offers OpenVINO support for AI computing through an optional service.

Power is 9 to 55 V DC on an ATX 4-pin connector, with 16-mode software ignition control. The EMBC-7000 operates from -40 to 75 °C with airflow, stores from -40 to 85 °C and handles 5 to 95% humidity, non-condensing, with heat sink and heat spreader accessories available. A TPM 2.0 and a watchdog timer are on board, and the board carries CE, FCC and ICES marks. Wake on LAN, PXE and hardware monitoring with auto throttling are supported. It measures 146 x 102 mm and supports Windows 11, Windows 10 and Linux. Vecow names robotic SLAM, intelligent vending and factory automation as target applications.
