    The 3.5"-SBC-EKL is designed to support Intel® Atom® x6000E Series, Intel® Celeron® J6000 / N6000 Series and Intel® Pantium® J6000 / N6000 Series Processors. The BGA CPU is remounted from factory. Kontron has defined the board versions as listed in the following table, so far all based on Embedded CPUs. Other versions are expected at a later date.
  • Page 22: On-Board Graphics Subsystem

    Memory modules have in general a much lower longevity than embedded motherboards, and therefore EOL of modules can be expected several times during lifetime of the motherboard. As a minimum it is recommend using Kontron memory modules for prototype system(s) in order to prove stability of the system and as for reference.
