AAEON Unveils HPC-ARHm -HPC Mini Module for High-Performance Edge AI.

AAEON Unveils HPC-ARHm: A Compact COM-HPC Mini Module Featuring Intel Core Ultra Processors

Taipei, Taiwan – November 23, 2025 – AAEON, a prominent innovator in Computer-on-Modules (COM), has introduced the HPC-ARHm, a cutting-edge COM-HPC Mini module designed to deliver exceptional performance with Intel’s latest Series 1 and 2 Core Ultra processors.

Compact Design with Powerful Processing Capabilities

Measuring just 95mm by 70mm and weighing approximately 80 grams, the HPC-ARHm adheres to the COM-HPC R1.2 mini form factor standard. Despite its small footprint, this module supports Intel Core Ultra Series 1 and 2 CPUs with a thermal design power (TDP) of 28W, making it ideal for high-performance embedded applications. It integrates up to 64GB of soldered LPDDR5 memory, enabling users to leverage Intel’s AI Boost Neural Processing Unit (NPU) alongside the desktop-grade Intel Arc GPU, achieving AI inference performance up to 96 TOPs depending on the configuration.

Robust Storage and Expansion Options for Data-Intensive Tasks

The HPC-ARHm module offers up to 256GB of onboard NVMe storage, complemented by versatile expansion capabilities tailored for latency-sensitive workloads such as medical imaging and semiconductor testing. Expansion slots include a PCIe Gen4 x8 and a PCIe Gen3 x4 slot, providing ample bandwidth for additional storage or specialized peripherals. Additionally, two SATA interfaces are supported via co-layed PCIe lanes, alongside four PCIe Gen3 x1 slots designed for lower-power peripheral devices.

Comprehensive I/O Suite for Advanced Connectivity

Following PICMG standards for COM Mini modules, the HPC-ARHm features multiple display outputs including two DDI ports (supporting DisplayPort and HDMI) and one embedded DisplayPort (eDP). Networking is handled through dual 2.5GbE Ethernet ports, while USB connectivity includes four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (10Gbps) and eight USB 2.0 ports. The module also integrates a high-definition audio interface and a versatile combination of 12-bit GPIO, dual 4-wire UART, dual I2C, and SMBus interfaces, making it well-suited for robotics and sensor-intensive applications requiring complex serial communication.
