1.1 Introduction
Figure 1-1: WAFER-KBN-i1
The WAFER-KBN-i1 3.5” SBC is an AMD Embedded G-Series SoC platform that supports
one 1600 MHz or 1333 MHz DDR3 SO-DIMM memory. The WAFER-KBN-i1 provides two
GbE interfaces through the Intel® I211 and the Intel® I210 GbE controllers. In addition,
the WAFER-KBN-i1 includes VGA, LVDS and iDP interfaces for dual independent display.
Two USB 3.0 on the rear panel, four USB 2.0 by pin headers, two SATA 6Gb/s, three
RS-232, one RS-422/485, one PCIe Mini card slot and one audio connector provide
flexible expansion options.
