CJSC "MCST" two new with integrated processors in the Mini-ITX form factor. senior model built on the basis of Elbrus-8S, manufactured according to the 28 nm process technology. The board has two DDR3-1600 ECC slots (up to 32 GB) operating in dual-channel mode, four USB 2.0 ports, two SATA 3.0 ports and one Gigabit Ethernet with the ability to mount a second interface in the form of an SFP module.
The module does not have an integrated video core - a discrete video card must be installed in the PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot; the audio jack is also not output, it is proposed, if necessary, to output sound via HDMI or USB. For cooling the processor, a 75 × 75 mm cooler mount is provided. Cooling of the controller of peripheral devices is supposed to be mounted on a thermal adhesive tape. Both coolers are 4-pin. The cost of the board was 120 thousand rubles (for comparison, the MBE8C-PC board from the Elbrus 801-RS workstation costs 198 thousand).
Elbrus supports the launch of operating systems compiled for the x86 architecture, however, support for hardware virtualization is expected only in the future Elbrus-16C processor. To ensure binary compatibility for the x86 architecture, a technology is used . The processors also support with hardware control of the integrity of the memory structure using tagging of its areas.
Basic for the Elbrus platform is an original , based on the Linux kernel using LFS, a build system similar to Gentoo portage and package management from the Debian project (also known as Elbrus Linux). Elbrus processors are also supported in operating systems (QNX) , и .
