Edge computing leader AAEON (Stock Code: 6579), today announced another breakthrough with the release of the PICO-MTU4-SEMI, a compact Mini PC powered by the Intel Core Ultra 5 Processor 125U.

Measuring just 108 mm x 95 mm x 43 mm, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI's size is particularly notable, and not only because it is the smallest Mini PC equipped with Intel Core Ultra CPUs released to date. Despite the PC's high-performance processor base, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI is the company's first Intel Core-powered PICO-SEMI PC with fanless heat dissipation, allowing the system to be integrated into larger setups such as industrial robots and AGVs while still providing a broad selection of interfaces for peripheral devices such as cameras and sensors.For system memory, the PC offers up to 32 GB of soldered single-channel LPDDR5, while it relies on an M.2 2280 M-Key for storage (PCIe Gen 4 or SATA signal, configurable by BOM). Additional expansion is available through the system's M.2 2230 E-Key, which provides an avenue through which users can install a Wi-Fi module.
For interfaces, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI offers dual LAN ports (2.5GbE and 1GbE) with Intel driver support, dual USB 3.2 Gen 2, and dual COM ports for RS-232/422/485. The system also offers a 5-pin wafer for I2C or SMBus and an optional GPIO connector.

In terms of OS compatibility, the PICO-MTU4-SEMI supports both Windows 10/11 and Linux Ubuntu 22.04.2.
