Maintaining the 3.34” x 2.20” (85mm x 56mm) credit card-sized form factor of the original UP Board, along with its Raspberry Pi-compatible 40-pin HAT, the UP 7000 is the world’s smallest developer board featuring the new Intel® Processor N-series (formerly Alder Lake-N).

8GB of onboard LPDDR5 system memory provides exceptional data transmission speed for peripheral devices. Three USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, GbE LAN, and a Raspberry Pi-compatible 40-pin HAT make the UP 7000 suitable for applications typically requiring boards with denser onboard interfaces, such as AMR.

Substantially upgrading graphics performance, Intel® UHD Graphics offers an additional 6 execution units at 24 compared to its predecessor’s 18, along with higher execution speeds to aid deep learning. When paired with the board’s HDMI 1.4b interface, a higher number of execution units and greater frequency grant faster rendering and more FPS for applications such as digital signage.

Hosting CPUs with clock speeds up to 50% faster than those of its predecessors, along with Intel® AVX2 support for energy-efficient AI acceleration in such a miniature board; the UP 7000 is a low-power, high-performance solution for medical imaging and multifunction printing device applications.

Despite its small size, high-powered CPU platform, and LPDDR5 system memory, the UP 7000 has a fanless design, making it reliable in more deployment environments. Additionally, the board’s low power consumption to performance ratio makes it a more energy efficient solution, all without sacrificing quality.
