Various off-the-shelf core module with additional functionality that is required for specific applications
COM-Express ─
COM Express defines standardized form factors and pin-outs for Computer-on-Modules. The standard includes the mini form factor (84 x 55mm), the compact form factor (95 x 95mm) and the basic form factor (125 x 95mm).
To serve industry requirements, the Digital Display Interfaces (DisplayPort, HDMI) and super-fast USB 3.0 were recently added to the pin-out definitions for COM Express Modules
SMARC─
The SMARC (“Smart Mobility ARChitecture”) is a versatile small form factor computer Module definition targeting applications that require low power, low costs, and high performance. Module sizes are defined: 82mm x 50mm and 82mm x 80mm with 314 edge fingers that mate with a low profile 314 pin 0.5mm pitch right angle connector.
Qseven ─
QSeven standard platform has been developed with performance and flexibility in mind, allowing various processor configurations to maximize passive cooling technology. With a maximum power consumption of around 12W specified in the standard, the new form factor is expected to appeal to manufacturers of applications that require fanless operation.
