Kontron, a global leader in IoT/Embedded Computer Technology (ECT), announces the release of BIOS Update R2.12.0 for all K38xx series motherboards. With this update, Kontron extends the support for Intel® Core™ processors from the 12th and 13th to the 14th generation for the ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards developed and produced in Germany.
The R2.12.0 update covers all existing platforms in Kontron's ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX form factors, including the powerful K3851-R ATX motherboard and the ultra-thin K3831-H Thin mITX, designed specifically for retail applications. The update not only ensures an increase in performance, but also longer platform availability.
Optimized performance for demanding applications
Based on the Intel® Performance Hybrid Architecture, the new Intel® Core™ processors feature up to 24 cores (8 Performance Cores and 16 Efficient Cores). The Intel® Core™ i7 processors have received upgrades, now offering a maximum of 20 cores. These adjustments ensure optimized performance in demanding application scenarios. The CPU series also offers discrete support for the new Wi-Fi 7 wireless standard.
Support for the Intel® Core™ processors of the 14th generation will be available for all Micro-ATX motherboards, including K3842-Q µATX and K3841-Q µATX, from mid-March 2024. All ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards (K3851-R ATX, K3833-Q mITX, K3832-Q mITX and K3831-H Thin mITX) will follow in several steps.
Kontron will be presenting the updated boards at embedded world 2024 in Nuremberg in Hall 3, Booth 3-159.
