Introduction
1.1
Mini-ITX Concept
The Mini-ITX form factor provides enthusiasts and manufacturers with a standardized ultra compact platform for development. With a footprint
of 170 mm x170 mm, this scalable platform promotes the design of highly integrated, energy efficient systems. Due to its small size, the Mini-
ITX form factor enables PC appliance designers not only to design attractive low cost devices but also allows them to explore a huge variety of
product development options - from compact space-saving designs to fully functional Information Station and Value PC systems. This helps to
reduce product design cycle and encourages rapid innovation in system design, to meet the ever-changing needs of the market.
Additionally, the boards can also be passively cooled, presenting opportunities for fanless designs. The Mini-ITX boards are equipped with
various interfaces such as PCI Express, SATA, USB 2.0/3.0, Ethernet, Displays and Audio.

conga-IC370
The conga-IC370 is a Single Board Computer designed based on the Thin Mini-ITX specification. The conga-IC370 features the 8th Generation
Intel Core or Celeron U-Series processors. With 15 W base TDP, the SBC offers Ultra Low Power boards with high computing performance and
outstanding graphics. Additionally, the SBC supports dual channel DDR4 up to 2400 MT/s for a maximum system memory capacity of 64 GB,
multiple I/O interfaces, up to three independent displays and various congatec embedded features.
With smaller board size and lower height keep-out zones, the conga-IC370 SBC provides manufacturers and system designers with the
opportunity to design compact systems for space restricted areas.
The various features and capabilities offered by the conga-IC370 makes it ideal for the design of compact, energy efficient, performance-
oriented embedded systems.
