The MSI MS-CF19 is an industrial 3.5-inch Single Board Computer (SBC) with high-performance that is intended to be used in fanless, low-power embedded systems in which reliability and dimensions are of high importance. It uses Intel Core Ultra processors (both Meteor Lake-U or Series 1 and Arrow Lake-U or Series 2), which can be scaled to the performance desired by the industrial environment, including automation, digital signage, machine vision, and industrial IoT.
This SBC further allows up to 96 GB of DDR5 memory using two SO-DIMM slots, allowing high multitasking and data processing methods. Intrinsic Intel Graphics, graphics, and the board has the capability to run up to four autonomous displays utilising two DisplayPort outputs and two LVDS/eDP connections, which makes it compatible with multi-screen interfaces.
It is also very connective with a single Gigabit Ethernet and 2.5 GbE port to support fast network connectivity. Storage and expansion. This is also flexible with a single M.2 M-Key (PCIe Gen4 x4 NVMe) slot, M.2 B-Key and E-Key slots, and a SATA 3.0. I/O connectivity is based on four USB 3.2 Gen 2 specialisations, four USB 2.0 specialisations, two RS-485 compatible COM ports, two GPIO, digital I/O, audio output, and onboard TPM 2.0 to ensure better security.
The MS-CF19 has a very broad 12-24 V DC operating range, taking into consideration over-current and over-voltage conditions, and the overall size of the device is 146 x 102 mm, which makes installation fit easily in space-constrained industrial systems.
In terms of software, Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC and Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC are 64-bit and can be used with the MSI MS-CF19 3.5-inch SBC, as it can also be used in long-term industrial applications, permitting stability and security. Linux assistance is also available, which implies that system integrators may be offered drivers or BSP that they may incorporate into their own embedded systems. The official support portal also makes MSI easy to install and operate in the industrial and embedded setting, as it provides the latest updates on the BIOS, drivers, utilities, and documentation.
The current price of the MSI MS-CF19 3.5-inch SBC is not publicly listed, as at the time of writing, the company needs to request pricing as an industrial embedded system through MSI’s product page or its authorised dealers. Availability varies by region and chosen configuration (processor, memory, storage), and is usually distributed via OEM and industrial sales channels and not the conventional retail outlets.
