UP Xtreme i12
An innovative next generation developer board, the UP Xtreme i12 hosts the 12-core, 16-thread hybrid architecture of 12th Gen Intel® Core™ Processors (formerly Alder Lake-P). This configuration increases energy efficiency while doubling its predecessor’s thread count. With the built-in Intel® Iris® Xe graphics engine, it delivers greater performance and better efficiency for both general purpose applications and Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the edge. Thanks to the on board LPDDR5 memeory, it also provides greater processing power, doubling bandwidth and memory capacity without the need for SODIMM module installation. Combining this accelerated data processing with USB 4.0 and 2.5GbE ports ensures high-speed connectivity to peripheral cameras and sensors, making the UP Xtreme i12 the perfect board for smart retail. Additionally, the 2.47 x increase in graphics speed provided by Intel® Iris® Xe graphics, with four simultaneous 4K displays.
Further, the UP Xtreme i12’s wide 12 – 36V power input range facilitates extended use for industrial applications, such as smart manufacturing. Customers can therefore harness CPU performance up to 20% greater than Tiger Lake while retaining continuous, efficient operation in more challenging environments.
