Introduction
The Hurricane-QM57 offers a high performance EPIC board with the i7-620UE, i7-610E and Celeron P4505
Processor Series from Intel
®
Core™. This processor is a next generation of 64-bit, multi-core mobile processor
built on 32-nanometer process technology. Based on the low-power/high-performance Nehalem micro-
architecture, the Arrandale processor is designed for a two-chip platform as opposed to the traditional three-
chip platforms (processor, GMCH, and ICH). The two-chip platform consists of a processor and the Platform
Controller Hub (PCH) and enables higher performance, lower cost and easier validation. In this case the PCH is
Intel’s Ibex Peak-M (Mobile Intel® 5 Series Chipset).
Two Ethernet GbE ports, six USB 2.0 host ports and two Power-USB 2.0 host ports handle the communication
with external devices. Four SATA ports allow connection of hard disk or CD drives.
System expansion can easily be realized over PCI/104-Express, PC/104-Plus, I²C bus and Mini-PCI connectors.
The Hurricane-QM57 runs DOS, Windows and Linux operating systems.
