SPIDER Automation AAEON UP Squared 6000 | Intel x6000E-Class Industrial SBC | For AIoT, Robotics & Edge Computing
Description
The AAEON UP Squared 6000 is a compact industrial single-board computer developed for embedded computing, AIoT, robotics, smart agriculture, industrial automation and vision-intensive applications. Based on Intel® Atom® x6000E/x6000RE, Pentium® or Celeron® N/J series processor platforms, it combines efficient processing, Intel® UHD Graphics and extensive expansion capabilities in a compact 101.6 × 101.6mm board format.
The platform provides flexible networking through 1GbE and 2.5GbE Ethernet, while three USB 3.2 Gen 2 interfaces provide high-speed peripheral connectivity. Display connectivity includes HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.2 and eDP support for compatible Atom-series configurations. A 40-pin GPIO interface provides HAT-compatible expansion for embedded control and peripheral integration.
For storage, wireless and AI expansion, the UP Squared 6000 incorporates multiple M.2 interfaces, including M.2 2230 E-Key, M.2 2280 M-Key and M.2 3052 B-Key. Depending on processor and configuration, these interfaces can support NVMe storage, Wi-Fi, 5G connectivity and AI accelerator modules. The board also provides SATA 3, RS232/422, TPM 2.0 and a 100-pin board-to-board connector on supported Atom-series configurations.
Designed for embedded and industrial deployments, the board operates from a 12V DC input with up to 6A and supports operation from 0°C to 60°C with heatsink and 0.5 airflow. The compact footprint and broad I/O architecture make it suitable for integrating computing, networking, storage, industrial communication and machine-vision functions into space-constrained systems.
