MX57QM, Intel QM57 Mini ITX motherboard
 
BCM Advanced Research, a leading provider of industrial motherboards and systems, announces the production release of the MX57QM Mini ITX supporting Intel® Core™ series i7, i5 and i3 mobile processors

System
The MX57QM is based on Intel®’s latest two-chip platform. By integrating the new Mobile Intel QM57 Express chipset and socket 989 together, the MX57QM supports Intel® Core™ series i7, i5 and i3 multi-core intelligent processors providing industry-leading performance, excellence graphics, and enhanced memory and I/O bandwidth. The board has two sockets support dual channel DDR3 SO-DIMM up to 8 GB system memory.

Display
The MX57QM supports dual display through onboard HDMI, DVI, 18/24-bit dual channel LVDS and standard VGA interfaces. The HDMI delivers uncompressed HD video and multi-channel audio quality and supports all HD 720p, 1080i and 1080p formats.

Expansion and I/O Interface
Besides the above onboard display ports, the MX57QM provides many other expansion slots and I/O interfaces including one PCIe x16, one PCIe and one Compact Flash socket (on the back), dual Gigabit LAN ports,  five SATA RAID, total eight USB 2.0, 16-bit GPIO and 6 COM ports with one RS-232/422/485 selectable.

Intel® Advanced Technology
There are many built-in Intel® advanced technologies supported by the MX57QM. Such technologies include:
  • Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (iTXT) – providing hardware-based mechanisms that help protect against software-based attacks protecting the confidentiality and integrity of data stored on the client side computer
  • Intel® Rapid Storage Technology – provides quicker access to valuable data with RAID protection and enhanced power management for the storage subsystem
The MX57QM also supports Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2 serving as security guard to confine confidential data in a secure vault in the computer with strict trustworthy encryption and decryption protection processes.  This feature will benefit applications such as ATM machines and public Kiosks such as airline check-in kiosks with access to sensitive and critical information where protection is required.

Applications
The MX57QM meets the requirements of a broad range of embedded applications such as Kiosk, Point-of-Sale (POS), industrial automation equipment, all-in-one Panel PC, human machine interface (HMI) terminals, and media rich digital signage applications. It is an ideal solution for retail, gaming, medical, and industrial control markets.
