Biostar brings Intel Panther Lake-H to industrial Thin Mini-ITX with 128GB DDR5-7200 support

Biostar launches small motherboard BIPTL-IHT which would bring cutting-edge computing power to industrial control applications. The BIPTL-IHT is significant as it is the introduction of Intel's new Panther Lake-H series of architecture into the world of small form factor PCs which open doors for more intelligent edge computing and AIoT applications in space constrained environments.

New board supports Core Ultra Series 3 processors and PCIe 5.0 storage

BIPTL-IHT is based on the Intel Panther Lake-H series platform which supports the new Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors. Users will have the choice to select either Ultra 5, Ultra 7 or Ultra 9 processors to match their computing requirement. With such flexibility system integrators will be able to strike a fine balance between performance and power consumption for the given industrial application at hand.

Specifications

• Form Factor: Thin Mini-ITX (170x170mm)
• Platform: Intel Panther Lake-H
• Memory: Dual-channel DDR5-7200 SO-DIMM, up to 128GB
• Storage: 2x M.2 Key-M (PCIe 5.0 x4 and PCIe 4.0 x2)
• Connectivity: M.2 Key-B (4G/5G), M.2 Key-E (Wi-Fi/Bluetooth)

For memory the BIPTL-IHT supports DDR5-7200 SO-DIMM dual channel memory slots up to 128GB. It also comes with 2x M.2 Key-M slots. 1x of the slots support PCIe 5.0 x4 and the other supports PCIe 4.0 x2 NVMe storage drives. Video out is supported with HDMI, DisplayPort 1.4 and LVDS video out port which can be selected based on your needs.

Furthermore the BIPTL-IHT also has dedicated M.2 slot for 4G/5G modules as well as Wi-Fi/Bluetooth adaptors besides just networking capabilities. Some of the processor variants would also support PCIe 5.0 x4 slot for extra hardware acceleration capability. Such features are well suited for complex automation and intelligent edge applications where fast and reliable data connections are needed.

The BIPTL-IHT is well suited for industrial automation and AIoT industry where you have space limitations but require heavy duty computing power. It provides the system builder a solid platform to deploy cutting-edge computing in space constrained environments. It is available now and will be one new choice for those system builders who are building small form factor industrial systems.
