Description
The Raptor is an extremely small, powerful, and rugged SWaP-optimized embedded computer. Slightly larger than a deck of playing cards, Raptor features Intel®’s 13th generation processor options, along with up to 64 GB soldered-down error-correcting memory, and three M.2 expansion sockets. Raptor is an excellent solution for applications requiring ultra-compact size, high-performance, and operation in a harsh environment.
The Raptor is powered by Intel’s 13th generation CPU family. Models are available with a 10-core i5, or a 5-core U300E processor.
The on-board I/O includes two USB 4 Type-C, two USB 3.2 Type-A ports, and two 2.5 Gb Ethernet TSN ports. Additionally, Raptor includes two COM ports supporting RS-232, RS-422, and RS-458 standards. Three displays are supported: one mDP++ high-performance video port and two USB 4 DP Type-C ports. Three M.2 M key sockets (2x 2242, 1x 2280) support plug-in expansion.
Raptor operates at industrial temperatures (-40° to +85°C), meets MIL-STD-202H specifications for shock and vibration, and is rated for high altitude use (up to 50,000 ft.). Latching connectors prevent cable detachment issues in high-vibration environments.
VersaLogic’s 10-year product life support programs ensure long-term availability. This avoids expensive upgrades and migrations from short lifecycle products.
