Technology Never Stands Still—and Neither Do We
Validated Mini-ITX platforms engineered for reliable deployment in industrial, edge, and embedded system environments.
Built to Withstand Extreme Temperatures
Our boards are tested to handle heat, cold, and everything in between. Whether installed in a roadside control box or an uncooled warehouse panel, they keep running reliably—no fans or heaters needed.
Can Your Hardware Survive the Heat and Cold?
Not all boards are built for outdoor boxes, uncooled racks, or freezing sites. This table shows how our wide-temp platforms keep working in extreme weather—without needing fans or heaters.
| Question | Standard Embedded Board | Customized Serial-Ready Board | Exclusive ODM by MiniITXBoard.com |
|---|---|---|---|
| Can it cold-boot in sub-zero weather? | May fail or restart often | Boot logic handles -10°C to +50°C | Boots from -20°C, validated startup under frost or chill |
| Can it operate in high heat? | May throttle or shut down | Basic throttling, reduced speed | Operates up to +70°C with full bandwidth, no forced cooling |
| Does the case protect against thermal drift? | Standard cases trap heat | Passive vents or partial shielding | Aluminum chassis, heat-spreading zones, zero drift in tight spaces |
| Is uptime stable in outdoor enclosures? | Needs A/C or vent fans | Works if semi-vented | Runs full-duty cycle in sealed kiosk, wall-mount, or vehicle bays |
Wide-Surface Heatsink Platforms for Harsh Sites
Some systems live in tough spots—outdoor walls, cold warehouses, sunlit kiosks. Our boards are made to handle it all. With smart materials and fanless cooling, they power up in freezing cold and keep going through hot summer days.

Thermal Design Interfaces Tuned for Wide Temperature Uptime
When systems must endure outdoor enclosures, factory walls, or mobile deployments, thermal consistency matters. We engineer temperature-tolerant platforms to operate from -20°C to +70°C, balancing material heat transfer, component layout, and passive dissipation—ensuring stability across every load cycle.
| Thermal Design Category | Compact Temperature-Tolerant Boards | Mid-Tier Wide-Temp Platforms | Advanced Wide-Temp Industrial Boards |

Mechanical & Thermal Engineering for Harsh Temperature Zones
Fanless Cooling Strategy for Thermal Extremes
Our systems aren’t just fanless—they’re thermally engineered to perform in wide-ranging temperatures. With passive cooling, durable components, and no moving parts, these boards stay functional in frigid mornings and blazing heat, making them ideal for deployments in unregulated outdoor and industrial environments.
Zoned Heat Transfer Paths
Strategic thermal zoning separates hot components from heat-sensitive ones, keeping boards stable even in sealed spaces.
Metal Enclosures as Radiators
Die-cast or aluminum cases serve as passive heat sinks, dissipating thermal loads without airflow—crucial for outdoor or high-vibration use.
Firmware-Governed Throttling
Dynamic thermal controls adjust processing power to protect performance during temperature surges, extending uptime.
Validated Wide Temp Ranges
Every board is tested for -20°C to +70°C operation—ideal for vehicles, edge deployments, and environments without climate control.
No Fans, No Failures
Fewer parts mean fewer risks. These platforms resist dust, reduce noise, and minimize maintenance across deployment lifecycles.
Engineered to Withstand Extreme Temperatures
In tough places—like cold server cabinets, sunlit kiosks, and factory enclosures—temperature matters. Our wide-temperature platforms are built with tested components and thermal logic to work through heatwaves and deep freezes without failing.
Thermally Locked BOM Materials
We only use heat-tolerant parts—no last-minute swaps. This ensures every batch has the same predictable thermal behavior, even under high load.
Full-Range Heat Mapping Support
Our boards are designed with wide thermal zone coverage. Heatsinks, VRMs, and SoCs are placed to spread heat safely—perfect for long hours in -20°C or +70°C conditions.
Smart Firmware-Based Thermal Behavior
Pre-calibrated thermal curves are baked into the firmware. That means no manual tuning—boards auto-adjust based on ambient heat, keeping performance safe and stable.
Survive the Extremes: Tested for Real-World Thermal Stress
From frozen cabinets to sunlit kiosks, boards need to work no matter what the weather does. Our wide temperature range platforms are tested for full uptime—even in environments that swing from freezing to heatwaves.
Copper-Padded Hot Zones
We reinforce heat-critical areas with copper planes and thermal padding. This spreads out temperature spikes and keeps sensitive parts safe—even in +70°C setups.
No-Fan Thermal Protection
We use heat spreaders, thermal pads, and copper routing instead of fans—keeping your system cool in sealed boxes and dust-heavy conditions where airflow isn’t an option.
Zero-Failure Passive Cooling
No fans to break, clog, or slow down in the cold. Our wide-temp designs use fixed heatsinks and thermal routing that perform quietly and reliably from -20°C to +70°C.
Long-Term Stability, Zero Maintenance
By combining stable VRM mapping, wide copper planes, and passive thermal curves, our platforms ensure consistent performance across years of duty—no tuning, no cleaning, no surprises.
Wide Temperature Platforms for Real-World Deployment
Whether you’re deploying in sun-heated kiosks or below-zero control cabinets, our embedded boards are designed for the unexpected.
