TPM 2.0 Security Module Board LPC 20-Pin for ASUS & Gigabyte

TPM 2.0 Encrypted Security Module Board — LPC 20-Pin

Upgrade your motherboard's hardware-level security with this TPM 2.0 Encrypted Security Module Board. Featuring a 20-pin LPC interface, this compact module integrates seamlessly with compatible ASUS and Gigabyte motherboards to deliver robust cryptographic protection for your PC — an essential component for Windows 11 compatibility.

What Is a TPM 2.0 Module?

A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is a dedicated cryptographic processor that sits between your sub-board and motherboard, handling encryption tasks independently from the main CPU. It securely generates, stores, and manages encryption keys used by software such as Windows BitLocker, secure boot processes, and enterprise security platforms — keeping your sensitive data protected at the hardware level.

Key Features

• TPM 2.0 Standard: Fully compliant with the latest Trusted Platform Module 2.0 specification — required for Windows 11
• LPC 20-Pin Interface: Designed for easy installation on compatible ASUS and Gigabyte motherboards with a 20-pin LPC header
• Discrete Encryption Processor: Offloads cryptographic operations from the CPU for dedicated, reliable security
• BitLocker & Secure Boot Compatible: Works with Windows BitLocker drive encryption and UEFI Secure Boot
• Compact Form Factor: Measures just 2.5 cm (0.98 inch) — minimal footprint inside your case
• Color: Black
• Main Power Connector: 4-pin connector

Why You Need a TPM 2.0 Module

Whether you're upgrading to Windows 11, enabling full-disk encryption, or securing a business workstation, a hardware TPM module provides a dedicated, tamper-resistant environment for cryptographic operations. Unlike firmware-based TPM solutions, a discrete module like this one keeps your keys isolated from software vulnerabilities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does the TPM 2.0 Security Module Board do?

A: The TPM 2.0 Security Module Board is a discrete cryptographic processor that connects to your motherboard via a 20-pin LPC header. It securely generates and stores encryption keys used by software such as Windows BitLocker and enables features like Secure Boot — providing hardware-level data protection independent of your main CPU.

Q: Is this TPM 2.0 module required for Windows 11?

A: Yes — Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0 as a minimum hardware security standard. If your motherboard has a 20-pin LPC TPM header but no built-in TPM chip, installing this module allows your system to meet the Windows 11 requirements and enables hardware-based security features.

Q: Which motherboards is this TPM 2.0 module compatible with?

A: This module is designed for compatible ASUS and Gigabyte motherboards that feature a 20-pin LPC TPM header. Always check your specific motherboard model's manual to confirm the header type and pinout before installation.

Q: How do I install the TPM 2.0 Security Module Board?

A: Installation is straightforward — simply align the 20-pin connector on the module with the TPM header on your motherboard and press firmly into place. Power down and unplug your system before installation. Consult your motherboard's user manual for the exact header location and any BIOS settings needed to enable TPM.
