With the Flex series, ICP Germany brings a modular industrial PC series onto the embedded market. The embedded system can be combined as required with an optional display. With the Embedded PC »Flex-BX100«, the selection has been expanded to include a passively cooled variant. It supports the eighth generation of Intel's core processors. You can choose from a high-performance variant with the Core i5-8365UE, a quad-core processor with a maximum clock frequency of 4.1 GHz, and a cheaper variant with the Celeron-4305UE, a dual-core processor with a clock frequency of 2.0 GHz.

The two DDR4 SO-DIMM sockets support up to 32 GB of RAM with a clock frequency of up to 2400 MHz, with 4 GB of memory already installed as standard. Intel's ninth generation HD graphics unit supports HD in 4K and offers both an HDMI connection for all common displays and LVDS for connection to the Flex-Display-Kit series.

The embedded system offers Triple GbE LAN, two of which are available with the optional PoE PD module. There are also four second generation USB 3.2 interfaces with 10 Gbps, an RS-232/422/485 and an RS-232 interface for connecting peripheral devices. In addition, the Flex-BX100 offers a 2.5 inch SATA drive bay, an M.2 2230 A-Key socket with PCIe x1 and USB signal and an M.2 2280 M-Key socket with PCIe 3.0 x4 Signal for NVMe modules. The metal housing is 357 x 222 x 44 mm and designed for an operating temperature range of -10 to +60 ° C. At the customer's request, ICP Germany delivers the embedded PC pre-equipped with suitable industrial work and mass storage devices. Compatible displays are available from 15 to 24 inches.
