Based on the Raspberry Pi 5

Kontron launches the 'BL Pi-Tron CM5'. The industrial board product was developed to meet the demand for standard products and an open software environment in the embedded industry and is based on the current Compute Module 5 from Raspberry Pi.

According to Kontron, the board offers significantly increased performance compared to its predecessor and is suitable for demanding applications. It offers high computing power thanks to the Broadcom BCM2712, a quad-core Cortex-A76, 64-bit SoC with a clock frequency of 2.4 GHz. The graphics capabilities of the board include a 4Kp60 HEVC decoder, OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.2, which ensure a smooth and high-resolution image display. A special feature of the board is the M.2 B-Key slot with PCIe connection, which enables additional expansion options. The device also has high-performance interfaces that are specially designed for demanding applications in industrial environments. The range of memory options includes 1 Gbyte to 8 Gbyte LPDDR4-4267 SDRAM with ECC as well as eMMC flash memory options from 0 Gbyte (CM5 Lite) up to 64 Gbyte.
The maximum bandwidth of the eMMC memory is 200 MBps, which is double that of the Compute Module 4. These features combine high processing speeds with large memory capacities. In addition, the board offers expansion and communication options such as PCIe Gen 2, WLAN 2.4/5 GHz and Bluetooth 5.0 BLE.
