The MSI IPC has recently released the MSI MS-CF17, a 3.5-inch SBC (Single Board Computer) Powered by Intel Raptor Lake 13th Gen processor. This provides high-performance industrial and embedded applications capable of operating in wide temperature ranges. It is designed for fanless, ultra-low-power, it supports up to 32GB of DDR5 memory, and can output four independent displays via HDMI and LVDS/eDP. It is equipped with four 2.5GbE LAN ports, making it ideal for networking-related heavy tasks. The board provides expansion options through multiple M.2 slots (B, E, M keys) and a SATA 3.0 port for storage.

Its connectivity is enhanced with four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, four USB 2.0 ports, four RS-485 COM ports, DIO, audio support, and onboard TPM 2.0 for security. Its wide voltage DC-IN (12-24V) with OCP and OVP makes it suitable for various power environments. The MS-CF17 is used in industrial automation, embedded systems, and applications requiring high performance in rugged conditions.

Previously, we have covered some similar SBCs like the IBASE IB961 3.5-inch SBC, the IB962 3.5-inch SBC, the JEtway F35-ADN1, and much more. Feel free to check those out if you are interested in the topic.
