Ryzen Embedded V2000 COM Express Module supports up to 1TB NVMe SSD, 64GB DDR4

We’ve already covered some COM Express modules based on AMD Ryzen Embedded V2000 processors with products like ADLINK cExpress-AR COM Express Type 6 Compact computer-on-module, but Kontron COMe-bV26 is the first we’ve seen that follow COM Express Basic Type 6 standard.

The module supports up to 64GB DDR4 via two SO-DIMM connectors, up to 1TB NVMe onboard SSD, exposes 8x PCIe lanes, and with an 8-core/16-thread Ryzen Embedded V2000 processor is well-suited to IoT edge devices that must perform parallel processing tasks.

Kontron COMe-bV26 specifications:

AMD Embedded V2000 SoC
- AMD V2748 octa-core/16-thread processor @ 2.9 GHz / 4.15 GHz (Turbo) with 4MB L2 cache, 7CUs Radeon RX Vega 7 GPU @ 1.6 GHz; TDP: 35-54W
- AMD V2718 octa-core/16-thread processor @ 1.7 GHz / 4.15 GHz (Turbo) with 4MB L2 cache, 7CUs Radeon RX Vega 7 GPU @ 1.6 GHz; TDP: 10-25W
- AMD V2546 hexa-core/12-thread processor @ 3.0 GHz / 3.95 GHz (turbo) with 3 MB L2 cache, 6 CUs Radeon RX Vega 6 GPU @ 1.5 GHz; TDP: 35-54W
- AMD V2516 hexa-core/12-thread processor @ 2.1 GHz / 3.95 GHz (Turbo) with 3MB L2 cache, 6 CUs Radeon RX Vega 6 GPU @ 1.5 GHz; TDP: 10-25W
System Memory – 2x DDR4 SO DIMM (up to 32 GByte per channel)
Storage – Up to 1 TByte NVMe SSD (on request), one or two SPI BIOS flash wit AMI BIOS UEFI

- Extended: -25 °C to +75 °C operating, -30 °C to +85 °C storage
- Industrial: -40 °C to +85 °C operating, -40 °C to +85 °C non-operating
Humidity – 93 % relative humidity at 40 °C, non-condensing (according to IEC 60068-2-78)

Kontron offers support for Windows 10 and Linux, the latter via the Yocto Project. Typical “IoT edge” applications for the module include factory automation, high-resolution medical imaging systems, advanced multi-display casino game applications, and multi-display digital signage installations.

If you wonder how COM Express Basic differs from COM Express Compact, it’s mostly a question of size and interfaces with four different COM Express types:

Mini – 55 × 84 mm
Compact – 95 × 95 mm
Basic – 95 × 125 mm
Extended – 110 × 155 mm

There’s no pricing nor availability information on the product page, where Kontron COMe-bV26 is just marked as “New”.
