Advantech Announces AIMB-219 Thin Mini-ITX Motherboard with Intel Atom Core i3

Advantech, a leading provider of embedded IoT computing solutions, is proud to unveil the AIMB-219, a THIN Mini-ITX board equipped with the latest Atom platform. It supports Atom N-series, Atom x7000RE, and Intel Core i3 N-series processors, delivering a 2.5x increase in CPU performance and 2x improvement in graphics. Designed for fanless operation in temperatures ranging from -20° to 70°C, the AIMB-219 ensures quiet and stable operation. Its compact, low-profile Mini-ITX design is ideal for space-limited systems and provides abundant I/O connectivity, including USB Type-C and M.2 B-/E-Key. With exceptional performance and advanced design features, the AIMB-219 is well-suited for industrial automation and control, outdoor self-service kiosks, digital signage, and in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVD) that require efficient computing in diverse, confined spaces.

The AIMB-219 provides a variety of SKU options, including Atom N-series, Atom x7000RE, and Intel Core i3 N-series processors. The Intel Core i3-N305, the most powerful processor in the Atom lineup, boasts a 2.5x improvement in computing performance over the processor in the AIMB-218. With up to 8 cores, a burst frequency of 3.8 GHz, and a TDP of under 15 W, it delivers exceptional efficiency. Additionally, it features Intel UHD Graphics based on Intel Xe architecture, with up to 32 EUs, offering double the 3D Mark performance and superior computational capabilities compared to the Intel Core ULT processor (i3-8145U).
Additionally, the classic Atom N97 (part of the N-series) shows remarkable improvements, with a 1.6x increase in computing performance and a 2x boost in graphics performance compared to the previous Atom generation.

Wide Operating Temperature Range and Fanless Cooling Ensure Quiet, Stable Performance
The AIMB-219 is designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -20 to +70°C, leveraging a fanless thermal solution for reliable performance in diverse outdoor environments with limited space. These features reduce operational risks and enhance the user experience across various applications. With components chosen for their resistance to extreme temperatures, it is ideal for factory automation and outdoor kiosks where temperature fluctuations are common, ensuring uninterrupted operation. The fanless design eliminates noise pollution, making the AIMB-219 more compact and suitable for mobile system integration. It is ideal for environments where quiet operation is essential, such as digital signage and in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVD).
Highly Efficient Connectivity with Defined Volume

Designed for space-constrained applications, the AIMB-219 integrates essential I/Os, including triple independent displays (1 x DP over USB Type-C, 1 x HDMI up to 4K, and 1x LVDS or eDP), to enhance system configuration. This setup ensures excellent visual output across multiple screens, ideal for outdoor signage and kiosks. The platform also features abundant expansion options, including M.2 B-Key and E-Key for wireless connections, simplifying mobile device deployment, and ensuring seamless connectivity with 3x USB 3.2 Gen 2, 5x USB 2.0, 1x USB Type-C, and 6x COM ports.

Additionally, the AIMB-219 supports ccTalk and TTL protocols via serial port, providing stable data transmission and easing system integration for self-service kiosks and entertainment equipment. This THIN Mini-ITX board merges all these features within a 1U low-profile height, enhancing the aesthetics of any system.

Feature Highlights:
  • Intel Core i3 N-series, Atom N-series, and Atom x7000RE Series Processors
  • Up to 16 GB DDR4 3200MT/s memory
  • Triple independent displays up to 4K
  • Abundant ultra-high-speed I/O with expansion options for wireless connectivity
  • THIN Mini-ITX motherboard with fanless design
  • Operating temperature ranges: 0 ~ 60°C and -20 ~ 70°C
  • Embedded OS support: Windows 10, Linux Ubuntu, DeviceOn
The Advantech AIMB-219 will be available for order at the end of July 2024.
