Specifications
1.2.1
OpenVPX Interface
The MIC-6311 complies with the OpenVPX MOD6-PAY-4F1Q2U2T-12.2.1-2 profile.
Two lanes of SRIO Gen2 x4, which offer 5G baud rates, are provided in the P1 data
plane. The MIC-6311 uses two lanes of PCIe Gen2 x8 in the P2 expansion plane.
Two lanes of 1GBase-T or SERDES (on request) are used for the P4 control plane.
1.2.2
CPU
The MIC-6311 supports the Intel 4th generation Core i3/i5/i7 Haswell processor fam-
ily, with clock frequencies of up to 3.4 GHz. Intel 4th generation Core i3/i5/i7 proces-
sors are integrated with the embedded graphic controller Iris. By incorporating Iris,
the MIC-6311 can support OpenGL 4.0, DirectX 11 and OpenCL 1.2, enabling
enhanced 3D graphics processing. The Haswell CPU also offers superior perfor-
mance when Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 is required. Turbo Boost is automati-
cally activated when the OS requests the highest processor performance state.
The Haswell CPU exhibits a superior performance 2x that provided by previous gen-
erations. Using Intel HT Technology, the MIC-6311 is capable of running demanding
applications simultaneously, while maintaining system responsiveness.
1.2.3
Processor
The I7-4700EQ is the default CPU for the MIC-6311 air-cooled SKU (MIC-6311-
A1I8E), and I5-4402E is the default CPU for the MIC-6311 conduction-cooled SKU
(available on request). Please contact your distributor or local Advantech branch for
information regarding the availability of I5-4400E/4402E SKUs.
1.2.4
BIOS
An 8 Mbyte SPI flash featuring a board-specific BIOS (from AMI) was designed to
satisfy industrial and embedded system requirements.
1.2.5
Chipset
The Intel Mobile QM87 (Lynx Point) chipset integrates several capabilities to provide
flexibility when connecting I/O devices. The Intel QM87 chipset offers fast access to
peripheral devices and delivers outstanding system performance through high-band-
width interfaces such as PCI Express, Serial ATA solid-state drives (SSDs) and tradi-
tional hard disk drives (HDDs), and integrated USB 3.0. The chipset also drives lower
power through enhanced link power management of the Advanced Host Controller
