The MAX-Q470A industrial micro ATX motherboard brings the performance of 10th Generation Intel® Core™ processors (formerly Comet Lake) to embedded computing platforms, supporting 10-core processors up to 65W TDP. With up to 128GB of RAM (4 x 32GB DDR4), the MAX-Q470 delivers the performance needed to power the most intensive applications, from workstations to edge AI systems and even cryptocurrency mining.
The board offers expandability with two PCIe 3.0 [x16] slots and two PCIe 3.0 [4x] slots to easily add on GPUs, AI accelerators, frame grabbers, and more. Other expansion options include M.2 2280 PCIe [x4] with support for NVMe, as well as M.2 3052 and SIM card slot for 5G deployment. The MAX-Q470A also offers easy maintenance features including a BIOS recover button on the rear I/O panel, and vertical USB3.2 Gen 1 Type A port on the board for greater data security.
