1 Introduction
The Express-SL/SLE is a COM Express® COM.0 R2.1 Basic Size Type 6 module supporting the 64-bit 6
th
Generation Intel® Core™ and
Xeon® E3-and Celeron® processors (codename “Skylake-H”) with Intel® QM170, HM170, CM236 Chipset. The Express-SL/SLE is
specifically designed for customers who need excellent graphics performance and high-level processing performance in a long product life
solution.
The Express-SL/SLE features Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (up to 4 cores, 8 threads) and DDR4 dual-channel memory at 1866/2133
MHz with ECC/non-ECC support determined by CPU/chipset combination to provide excellent overall performance. Intel® Flexible Display
Interface and Direct Media Interface provide high speed connectivity from the CPU to the Intel® QM170, HM170, CM236 Chipset.
Integrated Intel® Generation 9 Graphics includes features such as OpenGL 4.4/4.3/4.2, DirectX 11, Intel® Clear Video HD Technology,
Advanced Scheduler 2.0, 1.0, XPDM support, and DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) support for full H.265/HEVC, MPEG2 hardware codec.
Graphics outputs include LVDS and three DDI ports supporting HDMI/DVI/DisplayPort and eDP as a build option. The Express-SL/SLE is
specifically designed for customers with high-performance processing graphics requirements who want to outsource the custom core logic of
their systems for reduced development time.
The Express-SL/SLE has dual stacked SODIMM sockets supporting up to 32 GB of DDR4 ECC/non-ECC memory. In addition to the
onboard integrated graphics, a multiplexed PCIe x16 graphics bus is available for discrete graphics expansion. Input/output features include
a single onboard Gigabit Ethernet port, eight PCIe x1 Gen3 lanes, USB 3.0 ports and USB 2.0 ports, and SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Support is
provided for SMBus and I2C. The module is equipped with SPI AMI EFI BIOS with CMOS backup, supporting embedded features such as
remote console, hardware monitor, and watchdog timer.
