The new SBC35 series.
ADLINK Technology Inc., a global provider of edge computing and a supplier of industrial PCs and motherboards, announced the launch of the new SBC35 Series of 3.5″ single-board computers (SBC). This innovative series introduces a range of motherboards, specifically engineered to maximize efficiency in compact spaces.
The SBC35 Series features two models, including the:
- High-performance SBC35-RPL, powered by the 13th Gen Intel Core processors
- Energy-optimized SBC35-ALN, equipped with the Intel N97 processor
Additionally, the series offers an expansive range of I/O modules and SBC-FM Adaptive Function Modules (AFM) that significantly enhance system capabilities. These advancements make the SBC35 Series exceptionally suitable for various applications in automation, transportation, and smart city projects — including electric vehicle (EV) charging stations.
The SBC35 series showcases two compact models in a 146x102mm 3.5″ SBC form factor, each designed to maximize space and functionality in demanding settings. While the high-performance SBC35-RPL supports up to 64GB DDR5 4800MHz RAM and four independent displays, the efficiency-optimized SBC35-ALN accommodates up to 16GB DDR5 4800MHz RAM and three independent displays.
Both units are equipped with an extensive array of connectivity options, including four USB ports and versatile M.2 slots (2280 M Key, 2230 E Key, 3042 B Key), supplemented by dual RS-232/422/485, and additional dual RS-232 ports, audio, and digital I/O capabilities. Optional TPM 2.0 further enhances security, making these models highly adaptable for a broad range of industrial applications. Their comprehensive I/O and expansion options ensure that they can be customized to meet specific project requirements, providing exceptional versatility and scalability.
“The SBC35 series provides a whole new set of options for space-constrained applications that need to squeeze performance into very limited spaces,” said Julie Huang, ADLINK’s product manager of Edge Computing Platforms BU at ADLINK. “Working with a very small motherboard typically constrains options, so right out the gate we included many of the most commonly used connectors in the core design, such as multiple USB, COM, M.2, audio, and digital I/O.”
The SBC35 series from ADLINK enhances system capabilities with the SBC-FM Adaptive Function Modules, which offer flexible I/O expansion and customer-driven customization. These modules are specifically designed for the SBC35 series and include reserved connectors such as PCIe, USB, and LPC/eSPI, enabling precise customization and broad functionality for diverse applications. They integrate seamlessly with the mainboard, either vertically or in parallel, through an FPC cable. This not only ensures a streamlined design but also provides high thermal resilience under extreme conditions.
To further empower our customers, ADLINK provides a comprehensive design guide that enables clients to create their own function modules tailored to specific application needs.
