The MSC C6B-CFLH module is based on the 8th Generation Intel® Core™ Processor family. The Intel two-chip solution allows highest performance in graphics and computing on a COM Express module in basic form factor. The new MSC C6B-CFLH offers triple independent display support with up to 4k x 2k resolution, highest level graphics acceleration and hardware based video en-/decoding. Fast DDR4 memory with optional error correction (ECC) and multiple USB 3.1/2.0 interfaces complete the compact and powerful module. With choices of six and quad-core processor options the board is well positioned to address challenging performance demands. Besides an extensive set of interfaces and features, the MSC C6B-CFLH offers hardware based security compliant to the requirements of TCG (Trusted Computing Group). The Type 6 pin-out allows direct access to the latest digital display interfaces like DisplayPort 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2, HDMI 1.4 and DVI as well as up to four USB 3.1 interfaces supporting the fastest peripherals currently available.
