A mini PC is a small desktop computer that fits in the palm of a hand or behind a monitor. It runs a full operating system, connects to displays and peripherals, and uses far less space than a tower PC. Thinvent builds mini PCs for digital signage, kiosks, control rooms, point-of-sale, and office use.
The Thinvent range includes two mini PC families. The Micro 6 Pro uses an ARM Cortex A55 processor with 4 cores running up to 1.9 GHz and 1 MB of cache. It has 4 GB of onboard RAM, 32 GB of eMMC storage, one HDMI output, dual antenna WiFi, and Thinux embedded Linux. Its 5V 2A adapter supplies power.
The Treo uses an Intel Celeron N5095A processor from the 11th generation. It has 4 cores running up to 2.9 GHz, 4 MB of cache, 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 1 TB SSD. It is powered by a 12V 5A adapter. Treo models are sold with Windows 11 IoT or Windows 11 Pro, and they do not include WiFi.
