1.1 Overview
The slim embedded computer Pix-8xx5UE and the expandable embedded computer Pix-8xx5UEE are both
with onboard 8th generation Intel® Core™ U series processor that brings outstanding computing performance
boost up to 84% at a TDP of 15 watts, compared to 6th generation Intel® Core™ U series. To enable faster
responsiveness and deal with multi tasks with ease, the computer is equipped with two DDR4 2400 SODIMM
sockets for up to 64 GB memory. Powered by Intel® UHD graphics 620, the Pix-8xx5UE(E) series supports
triple independent displays (CDS/VGA/DisplayPort) and can play 4K UHD video smoothly via DisplayPort.
At only 41.5 mm thickness, the Pix-8xx5UE offers extensive I/O to fulfill different connectivities and can easily
fit into almost any space limited environment such as industrial control cabinet. For wireless connectivity, the
computer has 1x M.2 2230 E key and 2x full-size Mini-PCIe expansions to support Wi-Fi, 3G, and LTE modules.
For expansion requirements, the Pix-8xx5UEE has 1x PCI/PCIe x4, 1x M.2 2230 E key and 2x full-size
Mini-PCIe expansions which can be installed various add-on cards to increase desired functions. Besides, the
Pix-8xx5UE(E) series supports Control Function Module (CFM) Technology to install optional CFM modules for
increasing power over ethernet and power ignition sensing functions according to user’s specific applications.
Featuring rigorous industrial protection, fanless/jumper-less design, wide operating temperature (-40°C to
+70°C), wide range DC power input (9~48 VDC), high tolerance for vibration/shock (5/50 Grms), the
Pix-8xx5UE(E) series is appropriate for harsh environments and critical industrial applications.
Furthermore, by taking advantage of the Convertible Display System (CDS) technology, the Pix-8xx5UE(E)
series is compatible with CDS display modules and can be easily converted to an industrial panel PC of diff-
erent sizes for selection.
1.2 Highlights
High Performance Per Watt
Powered by 8th generation Intel® Core ™ U series processor (up to 4 cores, 4.10 GHz) at a TDP of only 15W,
the Pix-8xx5UE(E) series can fulfill a variety of applications that require high-performance computing and low
power budget simultaneously.
Slim Design with Multiple Functions (Pix-8xx5UE)
The Pix-8xx5UE is designed at only 41.5 mm height and provides a wall-mount kit for easy installation in
any space limited environment. Furthermore, a variety of I/O, 2x 2.5” SATA 3.0 drive bays, and M.2/mPCIe
expansions are also available to fulfill multiple applications.
Flexible Expansions (Pix-8xx5UEE)
Featuring 1x PCI/PCIe x4 slot, 1x M.2 2230 E key socket, and 2x full-size Mini-PCIe slots, the Pix-8xx5UEE is
capable of increasing additional I/O, or expansion cards to match your desired applications, such as data
acquisition, motion control, and wireless communication.
