Architecture overview

The Embedded PCs of the CX56x0 family all have the same architecture. This is described below.

The CX56x0 Embedded PCs are based on the AMD Zen microarchitecture. The following CPUs are used:

• AMD Ryzen™ R1102G, 1.2 GHz (dual core)
• AMD Ryzen™ R1505G, 2.0 GHz (quad core)

In addition to the arithmetic unit, the CPU also contains the memory controller and the graphics controller. For details on the CPUs please refer to AMD. The memory is connected directly to the CPU. The embedded PCs are available in two memory configurations: 4GB or 8GB DDR4 RAM. The memory is not extendable.

The CPU provides all required interfaces:

• 1 PCIe lane for each of the two Intel^® i210 Gigabit Ethernet controllers
• 4x USB 3.0 (interfaces)
• DVI-D interface (second interface optional with CX56x0-N010)
• 1 PCIe for FPGA for K-/E-bus
• 1 SATA to M.2 SSD interface
• 1 IDE for microSD card interface

The interfaces (USB, DVI, and LAN) are standard interfaces. Devices that meet the corresponding standard can be connected to and operated at these interfaces.
