EPC Series Overview

Avalue's EPC series comprises a range of ultra-compact embedded industrial PCs designed for OEM integration — offered in 3.5-inch SBC, 2.5-inch, and custom form factors that fit inside machine enclosures, laboratory instruments, test equipment, and other space-constrained applications. All EPC platforms are fanless, sealed, and rated for extended temperature operation.

Platform Options

  • EPC-TGLA — Intel Elkhart Lake (Atom x6000E series); ultra-low power, 6.5W TDP; ideal for IoT gateway and data acquisition
  • EPC-ADN — Intel Alder Lake-N; improved CPU performance with 8–15W TDP; for applications needing more compute
  • EPC-ADLN — Intel Core i3/i5 (12th Gen); 15–28W TDP fanless; full Windows 11 IoT performance in compact package

I/O in Compact Form Factor

Despite their small size, EPC series boards provide essential industrial I/O:

  • 2× COM (RS-232/422/485)
  • 2× GbE LAN
  • 4× USB (mix of 3.x and 2.0)
  • M.2 NVMe SSD support
  • HDMI or eDP display output
  • GPIO for hardware I/O
  • Wide voltage DC input (9–30V)

OEM and System Integration

EPC series platforms are ideal for OEM machine builders and system integrators who need to embed a PC inside their product without designing custom electronics. Avalue provides custom configuration options (memory, storage, I/O population) for volume OEM orders. TSL Automation can facilitate OEM procurement of EPC platforms for Indian machine builders and system integrators — contact us to discuss your requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Avalue EPC series designed for?
The Avalue EPC series comprises ultra-compact embedded industrial PCs in 3.5-inch SBC, 2.5-inch, and custom form factors designed for OEM integration inside machine enclosures, laboratory instruments, test equipment, and space-constrained applications. All EPC platforms are fanless and rated for extended temperature operation.
What processor options are in the Avalue EPC series?
The EPC series covers multiple Intel processor generations: EPC-TGLA uses Intel Elkhart Lake (Atom x6000E, 6.5W) for ultra-low power IoT gateway applications; EPC-ADN uses Intel Alder Lake-N (8–15W) for better CPU performance; and higher-tier EPC models use Intel Core i5/i7 platforms for demanding embedded applications including vision processing and SCADA.
What temperature range do Avalue EPC embedded PCs support?
Avalue EPC series embedded PCs support extended temperature operation from -40°C to +85°C depending on the model and configuration. Standard operating range is -20°C to +60°C. Extended temperature models use wide-temperature components and are suitable for outdoor enclosures, vehicle-mounted systems, and industrial environments near furnaces or cold storage areas.
Do EPC series embedded PCs support Windows?
Yes — Avalue EPC series supports Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC and Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC, as well as Linux distributions. Windows IoT LTSC provides 10 years of security support without disruptive feature updates, making it the preferred choice for embedded industrial deployments requiring long-term stability.
Is the Avalue EPC series available in India?
Yes — TSL Automation Solutions supplies the Avalue EPC series embedded PCs in India with full configuration support including processor selection, OS pre-loading, I/O configuration, and after-sales service from our Mumbai team.
