High‑performance COM express modules based on Intel® Core™ processors: the computing heart of fully integrated embedded systems
Prodrive Technologies’ COM Express family provides a scalable and modular computing foundation for OEMs who need high‑performance embedded compute within space‑constrained or mission‑critical systems. Based on Intel® Core™ processors, the Atlas modules deliver modern compute, graphics, and I/O capabilities in standardized COM Express form factors. These modules form the backbone of industrial PCs, control platforms, and application‑specific embedded systems that require extreme lifecycle with easy upgrade paths.
COM Express places the CPU, memory, and high‑speed interfaces on the module, while the carrier board provides the application‑specific connectivity, mechanical layout, and expandability. This modular design reduces redesign effort, allows faster transitions to new processor generations, and ensures long‑term serviceability. By simply swapping the module, customers can adopt new architectures without re‑qualifying the entire system - a major advantage in semiconductor manufacturing, medical, and industrial automation markets where lifecycle stability is essential.
The Atlas series offers later technology, including DDR5 memory, PCIe Gen5, and multi‑display support, enabling tasks such as high‑speed image capture, pre‑processing, motion control, human‑machine interface, and edge analytics. The modules are optimized for tight space constraints and can scale from compact NUC‑like designs to 19‑inch rack‑mounted configurations when combined with a suitable carrier board
Prodrive Technologies supports full system integration by designing and manufacturing carrier boards, enclosures, expansion modules, thermal assemblies, and custom I/O. Customers can rely on our in‑house engineering and production teams to deliver complete, fully qualified embedded systems built around COM Express technology - ensuring consistent performance, optimized thermals, long‑term availability, and simplified lifecycle management.
