Specifications
Components
Intel Core i3-N305 8-core x86 CPU at up to 3.8GHz with Intel UHD Graphics and configurable 9-35W TDP.
Overview
The LattePanda Mu N305 is the high-performance variant of the LattePanda Mu compute module family, featuring an Intel Core i3-N305 with 8 efficiency cores running at up to 3.8GHz turbo boost. Paired with 16GB LPDDR5 RAM (IBECC error-correcting) and 64GB eMMC 5.1 storage, it delivers significantly more compute headroom than the N100 variant while maintaining the same credit-card-sized 69.6 x 60mm form factor.
Like its sibling, the Mu N305 exposes a rich I/O set through its edge connector: up to 9 PCIe 3.0 lanes, 3 HDMI/DisplayPort outputs at 4K@60Hz, 8 USB 2.0 ports, up to 4 USB 3.2 Gen2 (10Gbps), 2 SATA 3.0 ports, and 64 expandable GPIOs. The TDP is configurable from 9W to 35W, allowing developers to balance performance against thermal constraints for their specific deployment.
With a Geekbench 6 multi-core score of 5249, the N305 module is capable of handling demanding edge workloads including AI inference, multi-stream video processing, and virtualized environments. Open-source KiCAD carrier board designs on GitHub enable custom hardware integration, making it suitable for NAS builds, network appliances, industrial control systems, and compact server clusters.
