1. Introduction
The Express-BE is a COM Express® COM.0 R2.1 Basic Size Type 6 module supporting the AMD R-Series APU (codename: Bald Eagle)
with A77E Fusion Controller Hub. The Express-BE is specifically designed for customers who need excellent graphics performance and
high-level processing performance with low power consumption in a long product life solution.
The Express-BE features the AMD R-Series APU supporting Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) and non-ECC type DDR3L dual-
channel memory at 1333/1600 MHz to provide excellent overall performance.
AMD Radeon HD 9000 Graphics integrated on the APU includes features such as OpenGL 4.2, DirectX 11.1, OpenCL 1.2, OpenGLES 2.0,
OpenCV, and support for H.264, MPEG2, VC1, MPEG4, WMV9, and MVC hardware decode. Graphics outputs include dual-channel
18/24-bit LVDS and DDI ports supporting HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort and optional eDP (TBD). In addition, up to four independent displays are
supported. The Express-BE is specifically designed for customers with high-performance processing and graphics requirements who want to
outsource the core logic of their systems for reduced development time.
The Express-BE has dual stacked SODIMM sockets for up to 16 GB non-ECC type DDR3L memory. In addition to the onboard integrated
graphics, a multiplexed PCI Express® x16 Graphics bus is available for discrete graphics expansion. Input/output features include a single
onboard Gigabit Ethernet port, USB 3.0 ports and USB 2.0 ports, and SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Support is provided for SMBus and I2C. The
module is equipped with SPI AMI EFI BIOS with CMOS backup, supporting embedded features such as remote console, hardware monitor,
and watchdog timer.
