GIGABYTE CTM012 TPM 2.0 module SPI server accessory

SKU CH-F6D3-REFEB MPN CTM012

Adds hardware-based TPM 2.0 security via an SPI module using an Infineon SLB9672 controller

  • TPM 2.0 header key enables hardware-based encryption
  • Infineon SLB9672VU2.0 controller delivers trusted platform security
  • SPI interface provides direct motherboard communication
  • 2 x 7 pin connector fits compatible server boards
  • Compact 20.32 x 14.73 mm footprint saves chassis space

TPM 2.0 Module for Server Boards

The GIGABYTE CTM012 adds a TPM 2.0 header key to compatible server motherboards. It uses an Infineon SLB9672VU2.0 controller for hardware-based security functions. System builders integrating trusted-platform features into rack or tower servers will use this module.

SPI Interface and Pin Layout Limits

The module communicates over a Serial Peripheral Interface through a 2 x 7 pin header. Physical size is 20.32 x 14.73 mm, so the board must expose a matching header with adequate clearance. Boards lacking this exact pinout or SPI support cannot use the accessory.

Compact Build and Header Mounting

The small footprint allows installation in dense server chassis without obstructing adjacent components. A standard 2 x 7 pin connector secures the module directly to the motherboard. No cables or brackets are required, simplifying deployment in rack environments.

Questions about this item

Which TPM module fits a 2 x 7 pin SPI header on my server board?

The CTM012 uses a 2 x 7 pin SPI connector measuring 20.32 x 14.73 mm, so it fits headers with that exact pinout and footprint.

What does the TPM 2.0 label mean for my server once the module is installed?

It adds a hardware root of trust based on the Infineon SLB9672VU2.0 controller, enabling measured boot, disk encryption key storage and firmware integrity checks.

How does the Serial Peripheral Interface limit the module in practice?

SPI runs at lower throughput than LPC, so the CTM012 handles key generation and attestation tasks but is not suited for high-volume cryptographic streaming.
