CoreModule 745
CPU
The CoreModule 745 offers two versions of the Intel
Atom™ N400/D500 series CPU—the N455 and
D525—operating at 1.67GHz with 6.5W TDP, and 1.83GHz with 13W TDP, respectively. The N400/D500
integrates a low-power and high-performance x86 Processor Core with Memory Controller and 3D Graphics
Engine. This single chip is based on 45-nm, Hi-K process technology, ideal for deeply embedded
applications.
Graphics
The N400/D500 CPU provides a refresh of the Intel third generation graphics core—a 2D/3D graphics
engine that performs pixel shading and vertex shading within a single hardware accelerator, which
minimizes access to memory and improves render performance.
Memory
The CoreModule 745 supports one DDR3 SODIMM for up to 2GB of RAM. One 64-bit access channel
supports single- or double-sided DIMMs, allowing for up to two device ranks. Enhanced memory
technology on the board provides optimized bandwidth and reduced latency, increased efficiency of system
memory protocol, and a near continuous data flow to the processor.
NOTE
ADLINK Technology, Inc. only supports the features/options tested and listed in
this manual. The main chips used in the CoreModule 745 may provide more
features or options than are listed for the CoreModule 745, but some of these
features/options are not supported on the module and will not function as
specified in the chip documentation.
The pin-out tables only of non-standard headers and connectors are included in
this chapter. This chapter does not include pinout tables for standard headers and
connectors such as SATA, PC/104, and PC/104-Plus. Refer to references in
for PC/104 and PC/104 Plus pin outs.
