Intel Xeon D Processors: Powering IoT With AI & Performance

Ice Lake D

High-performance SoCs with Ethernet built in, the Intel Xeon D processors are Intel Xeon D-1700 and D-2700 CPUs come in high-density Ball-Grid array packaging. For rugged and embedded applications at the edge, they provide high-bandwidth I/Os, server-class computation, and hardware-based security.​

Up to 20 cores, integrated AI acceleration, support for hard-real-time workloads, extreme temperature range, and industrial use circumstances are all features of the Intel Xeon D-1700 and D-2700 processors. They are hence perfect for demanding applications in manufacturing, aerospace, high-bandwidth video analytics, etc.

Key features on Ice Lake D

Enhanced for the Internet of Things, Intel Xeon D processors are a high-density platform that fits server-class processing, I/Os, and accelerated AI into small BGA packages for rugged and soldered-down embedded systems. ​

Intel Xeon D-1700 and D-2700 SoCs are perfect for high-performance rugged equipment and sealed fanless devices that need to run continuously in the most demanding environments because of their extended operating temperature ranges and industrial-class durability.​

Built-in acceleration for AI workloads

The Intel Deep Learning Boost (Intel DL Boost) and Intel AVX-512 instruction sets1 found in Intel Xeon D-1700 and D-2700 processors speed up deep learning inference processing on the CPU cores. With the Intel Distribution of OpenVINO toolkit, developers can optimize inference that can run on any combination of Intel architectures by converting learnt models from almost any framework.

Integrated Intel Time Coordinated Computing (Intel TCC)

At the system level, Intel Time Coordinated Computing (Intel TCC) enhances performance for applications that are sensitive to delay. For systems running real-time operating systems like Yocto Linux with PREEMPT_RT or Wind River VxWorks, as well as real-time hypervisors like ACRN or RTS, developers can use Intel TCC tools to fine-tune the system and enable accurate time and task management.

The Intel TCC offering is enhanced by distinct, standalone Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) solutions for switches and endpoints that allow timeliness and synchronization among networked devices.

Server-class performance and accelerated AI in rugged applications

Enhanced for the Internet of Things, Intel Xeon D Processors are a high-density architecture that fits server-class processing, I/Os, and accelerated AI into small Ball-Grid Array (BGA) packages for rugged and soldered-down embedded systems. Intel Xeon D-1700 and D-2700 SoCs are perfect for high-performance rugged equipment and sealed fanless devices that need to run continuously in the most demanding environments because of their extended operating temperature ranges and industrial-class durability.

Support high-bandwidth networks and peripherals

The Intel Xeon D-1700 and D-2700 processors provide real server-class connectivity to the edge with up to 56 high-speed PCIe lanes, 32 PCIe 4.0, and 24 customizable PCIe 3.0 lanes, as well as up to 100Gb wired Ethernet. It is possible to set up the 24 PCIe 3.0 lanes as either four USB 3.0 ports or 24 SATA 3.0 connections. High-speed local storage, robot production lines, and massive video camera systems can all be supported by the 32 PCIe 4.0 lanes.

What you can do with Ice Lake D
