Product Description
The Express-IBR is an exceptionally high integration, high performance, rugged Intel  Core™ processor
based system compatible with the COM Express standard. This rugged and high quality module system
contains all the component subsystems of an ATX motherboard.
The Intel Core processor incorporates a multi processor core with an integrated Graphics Memory Hub
(GMH), providing a high-performance processor, a memory controller for up to 16GB of SODIMM
memory, and a graphics controller for LVDS, VGA, PCI Express graphics (PEG), SDVO, DisplayPort, and
HDMI signals driven by the PCH.
The Intel BD82QM77 chipset provides controllers for the Platform Controller Hub (PCH) featuring
eight USB 2.0 ports, four USB 3.0 ports, four SATA ports, eight GPIO ports, and one Gigabit Ethernet
interface (external magnetics required).
Expansion for additional system functions is possible on the Express-IBR through the PCIe, LPC, and I²C
expansion buses. The PCIe, LPC, and I²C buses operate at clock speeds of 100MHz, 33MHz, and 3.4MHz,
respectively.
The Express-IBR is particularly well suited for either embedded or portable applications and meets the size,
power consumption, temperature range, quality, and reliability demands of embedded system applications.
