PICO-MTU4: AAEONが世界最小のIntel Core Ultra搭載ボードを開発

（台北、台湾 – 2024年8月2日）先進的な埋め込みコンピューティングプロバイダー AAEON（株式コード: 6579）は、新しい Intel® Core™ Ultra プロセッサープラットフォームを搭載した世界最小のシングルボードコンピュータ「PICO-MTU4」の発売を発表しました。

超小型の100mm x 72mm PICO-ITXフォームファクターを採用したPICO-MTU4は、Intel® Core™ Ultraシリーズの分離型ダイ設計、ハイブリッドCPUコアアーキテクチャ、および統合VPUを活用し、マルチスレッド性能を最大24%向上させ、SoCの消費電力を50%削減しています。

このボードは、Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 および Core™ Ultra 5 プロセッサーを搭載した複数のSKUが用意されており、すべてのモデルで TDP は 15W です。最大で 12 コア（2 つの P コア、8 つの E コア、およびさらに 2 つの低消費電力 E コア）と 14 スレッドの処理能力を備えています。

Equipped with LPDDR5x, two LAN ports (2.5GbE and 1GbE), two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, and a variety of serial interfaces for industrial protocols like dual COM for RS-232/422/485, a 4-bit GPIO, and SMBus, AAEON have indicated the board will target the advanced industrial robotics market, with SCADA, MES, and system monitoring devices singled out as particularly suitable uses.

Expansion comes in the form of SATA, an M.2 2280 M-Key (PCIe 4.0 x4), and an M.2 2230 E-Key (PCIe 4.0 x1). This not only grants adequate storage, but also Wi-Fi 6 support and other wireless communication options for edge solutions such as roadside units, the suitability of which is evident with the board’s default temperature tolerance range of -20°C ~ 70°C.
