Express-DN7

The Express-DN7 is a COM Express® COM.0 R3.0 Basic Size Type 7 module supporting the 64-bit Intel Atom® C3000 processor (formerly “Denverton-NS”) system-on-chip (SoC). 16 CPU cores with 31W TDP and integrated 10G Ethernet make the Express-DN7 especially suited for customers who need excellent computing performance with low power consumption, such as edge computing applications, in a long product life solution.

The Express-DN7 features Intel® Quick Assist Technology (cryptographic and compression acceleration), Intel® Virtualization Technology (including VT-x, VT-d), Intel® AES-NI Technology, and DDR4 ECC (or non-ECC) dual-channel memory at 1866/2133/2400 MHz (dependent on SoC SKU) to provide excellent overall performance. In addition, the Express-DN7 has up to three SODIMM sockets supporting up to 48GB of DDR4 ECC (or non-ECC) memory that is fully compliant with the COM Express mechanical specification.

An integrated Intel® 10G Ethernet controller supports a maximum of four 10GBASE-KR interfaces, relevant sideband signals, and NC-SI. The Express-DN7 is designed to serve customers with optimized computing capability per watt and high-speed connectivity requirements who want to outsource the custom core logic of their systems for reduced development time. Input/output features include expanded PCIe bandwidth up to two PCIe x8 Gen3 lanes, a single onboard Gigabit Ethernet port with IEEE 1588 support suitable for real-time applications, USB 3.0/2.0 ports, and SATA 6 Gb/s ports.

Support is provided for SMBus and I2C. The module is equipped with SPI AMI EFI BIOS with CMOS backup, supporting embedded features such as a remote console, hardware monitor, and watchdog timer.
