Raptor Lake-S processors support Intel VT (including VT-x / VT-d), Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, Intel VNNI, Intel TCC and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), Intel Hardware Shield, Intel TXT, Intel System Security Report, Intel APIC-v, Intel PTT, Intel TDT, Intel CET, Intel AMT, Intel UPID, Intel PMT, and Intel Thermal Velocity Boost (TVB). Note that some of the features may only be supported on specific SKUs.

ADLINK COM-HPC-cRLS module will support Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC, and Ubuntu 64-bit and VxWorks may also be, but they are shown as TBC in the datasheet. We are not shown any carrier board, but the company says it is working on COM-HPC and COM Express development kits based on Express-RLP and COM-HPC-cRLS modules, with carriers supporting USB4 and PCIe Gen5.

Both modules are preliminary, and we don’t have availability information. The specifications for the Express-RLP module are more complete, and we even get a block diagram, so it’s quite possible the COM Express Raptor Lake-P modules are closer to launch than the COM-HPC Raptor Lake-S models. More details can be found on the Express-RLP and COM-HPC-cRLS product pages.
