CPU
3.2.1
Processor Core
The following CPU types are supported:
Intel Core i7-3517UE, 2 cores, 4 threads, 1.7 GHz, 17 W, 4 MB cache
Intel Core i3-3217UE, 2 cores, 4 threads, 1.6 GHz, 17 W, 3 MB cache
Intel Celeron 1047UE, 2 cores, 2 threads, 1.4 GHz, 17 W, 2 MB cache
3.2.2
Thermal Considerations
The operating temperature range of the BL70S depends on the system configuration
(CPU, PCIeMiniCards, Ethernet, USB, ...)
The power dissipation of the system also depends on the environmental conditions. It
has a typical power dissipation of 24 W.
The system is designed for a maximum operating temperature of +70°C (+85°C for 10
minutes). The minimum temperature is -40°C for all processors.
As an option, a wider housing with additional cooling fins is available, enabling
permanent operation at +85°C.
3.2.3
Intel Active Management Technology (AMT)
BL70S equipped with an Intel Core i7 processor support Intel Active Management
Technology (AMT 8.0). Intel AMT is powered by a separate hardware engine in Intel
chipsets which enables, e.g., out-of-band (OOB) diagnostics, remote control, IDE-
Redirect, Serial-over-LAN (SOL), agent presence checking and network traffic filtering.
3.3
Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
A trusted platform module for authenticating the hardware to ensure platform integrity
is available on the BL70S. The TPM module is compliant to the TPM v1.2 specification.
MEN provides an application note on how to switch on the AMT
functionality and log onto the CPU board via VNC afterwards.
See the
If the supercapacitor and/or the battery is empty, the BL70S loses its
complete AMT settings due to Intel’s security standards.
