What is the Magnus En173080C / Intel N100 Platform?
The query "Magnus En173080C" refers to a specific model or platform built around the Intel Processor N100. This is a modern, efficient system-on-a-chip (SoC) designed for compact, fanless industrial computing. The Intel N100 is a 4-core, 4-thread processor from Intel's 12th Generation (Alder Lake-N) series, featuring a max turbo frequency of 3.4 GHz, 6 MB of cache, and a low 6W base power (TDP). This architecture prioritizes energy efficiency and reliable performance in thermally constrained environments, making it ideal for embedded and industrial applications where silent operation and durability are paramount.
Key Specifications and Technical Details
The core of this platform is the Intel Processor N100. Key technical specifications include:
-
CPU Architecture: 4 Efficiency-cores (E-cores), 4 threads.
-
Max Turbo Frequency: 3.4 GHz.
-
Cache: 6 MB Intel Smart Cache.
-
Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics (based on Xe architecture) with 24 execution units.
-
Memory Support: Supports up to 16 GB of dual-channel LPDDR5 or DDR4/LPDDR4x memory.
-
