The MSI IPC MS-CF13 is a fanless Mini-ITX motherboard with Intel Alder Lake-N & Twin Lake-N SoC – for energy-efficient, low-profile industrial applications with triple display, 6× COM and 12 V DC input.
With DDR5 SO-DIMM up to 16 GB, triple display (DP, HDMI/DP, LVDS/eDP), 6× COM, 2× 2.5 GbE LAN and onboard TPM 2.0, the MS-CF13 is ideal for compact control applications with low power consumption.
The MSI IPC MS-CF13 Mini-ITX motherboard (170 × 170 mm) is based on Intel Alder Lake-N (N97, Core i3-N305, Atom x7425E) and Twin Lake-N (N150, Core 3 N355) SoC processors in BGA package. A DDR5 SO-DIMM slot (4800 MHz, single channel) holds up to 16 GB of memory for energy-efficient embedded and edge computing applications.
Depending on the SKU, triple display support offers either two DisplayPort outputs + LVDS/eDP (SKU 1/5/6/8) or one DisplayPort + HDMI + LVDS/eDP (SKU 2/3/4/7/9). Resolutions range up to 4096 × 2304 @ 60 Hz (DP), 3840 × 2160 @ 30 Hz (HDMI) and 1920 × 1200 @ 60 Hz (LVDS). Two Intel I226-V 2.5 GbE LAN ports with RJ-45 provide reliable network connectivity.
The expansion and storage options comprise an M.2 B-Key slot (SATA/PCIe x1 + USB 3.2 Gen 2 + NANO-SIM holder, 2242/3042/2280) and an M.2 E-Key slot (PCIe x1 + USB 2.0, 2230) as well as a SATA 3.0 port. Six COM ports (COM1 RS-232/422/485; COM2–6 RS-232), two USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (rear), one USB 3.2 Gen 1 port and two USB 2.0 ports complete the I/O profile.
Onboard TPM 2.0 (Infineon SLB9672VU2.0), 8-bit GPIO, 3 W audio amplifier and chassis intrusion complete the feature set. Operating temperature: 0–60 °C (airflow 0.7 m/s); certifications: CE, FCC Class B, BSMI, RCM, VCCI, UKCA. Windows 10/11 IoT Enterprise LTSC and Linux are supported. Power is supplied via DC-IN 12 V.
