AAEON’s MIX-MTLD1 Detailed View

AAEON, a leading producer of industrial motherboards, has announced the release of the MIX-MTLD1, the most advanced Mini-ITX board it has ever produced. The first AAEON Mini-ITX solution to support Intel® Core™ Ultra processors (formerly Meteor Lake H/U), the MIX-MTLD1 harnesses the multi-pillar die architecture of the platform, combining a 14 core, 18 thread CPU, Intel® Arc™ graphics with support for multiple AI software frameworks, and on-chip Intel® AI Boost NPU.

Key Features:

Standard SKU ships with Intel® Core™ Ultra 5 Processor 125H, compatibility with multiple Intel® Core™ Ultra H-series CPUs (15W) and U-series CPU (28W)
OOB Module Support: MOD-RMB
Dual Channel DDR5 5600MHz SODIMM x 2, Max 96GB
Four HDMI for 4K display output (@60Hz) + co-layed LVDS (1920 x 1080) and eDP (4K @60Hz)
PCIe Gen 5, M.2 2230 E-Key M.2 3042/52 B-Key, and M.2 2280 M-Key slots

A particularly notable distinction for the MIX-MTLD1 is presence of an NCSI header linked to the board’s Intel® Ethernet Controller I210-AT, which provides support for a MOD-RMB Out-of-Band (OOB) module, bridging communication between the system’s Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) and network controller. Consequently, AAEON believe the MIX-MTLD1 will become the gold-standard for integrators seeking a solution to bring real-time remote management of edge inferencing applications across vertical markets.

Intel® Core™ Ultra processors (H-series & U-series support)
Dual Channel DDR5 Support, 5600MHz, Max 96GB
HDMI 2.0 x 4
M.2 3042/52 B-Key x 1, M.2 2230 E-Key x 1, M.2 2280 M-Key x 1
USB 2.0 x 5, USB 3.2 x 3
USB 3.2 Gen 1 (Type-C) x 1
Intel® Ethernet Controller I210-AT x 1, Intel® Ethernet Controller I226-V x 1
SATA 6Gb/s x 2
12V DC-in power
PCIe [x8] x 1
OOB Module Support: MOD-RMB (via i210-AT)

The MIX-MTLD1 hosts a variety of display options, including four HDMI 2.0 providing 4K resolution at 60Hz with digital audio, as well as co-layed LVDS and eDP, the former offering 1920 x 1080 and the latter 4K. For storage, the board provides two SATA ports with RAID support, with NVMe available through an M.2 2280 M-Key slot. Further expansion for add-on cards can be found via the MIX-MTLD1’s M.2 2230 E-Key M.2 3042/52 B-Key, and PCIe Gen 5 slots.
