Computer-On Modules
ADLINK Technology Inc. (ADLINK)
Computing technology is advancing at an incredible pace, pressuring equipment manufacturers to find ways keep up in order to stay competitive. For companies developing both high-end and entry-level products, this challenge is even greater due to the need to incorporate a wider range of technology. Manufacturers who need to satisfy a wide range of product requirements in a way that minimizes development effort and time-to-market should consider adopting a Computer-on-Module (COM) strategy.

Computer-On-Module
Qseven®
Computer on Module
Qseven is an off-the-shelf, multi-vendor, computer-on-module that integrates all the core components of a common x86 PC and is mounted onto an application specific carrier board. A single ruggedized 230-pin MXM connector provides the carrier board interface to carry all the I/O signals to and from the Qseven module.

ETX®
Computer on Module
ETX is one of the earliest successful computer-on-module form factors. Today it is still widely used in applications such as industrial automation, transportation and medium and low level medical appliances. While high-end Intel® Core™ applications have mostly migrated to COM Express, ETX is still very much alive in the lower power segment, mostly notably using Intel Atom® SoCs.

SMARC
Computer on Module
SMARC form factor is the only computer-on-module form factor that truly is capable of supporting both ARM and x86 designs. With 314-pins on a high speed MXM3 connector, SMARC can fully cover both typical x86 interfaces as well as typical ARM type low level signals. Using ARM SoCs opens the possibility to leverage the product ecosystem of familiar devices such as tablet computers and smart phones. Alternative low power SoCs and CPUs, such as tablet oriented x86 devices and other RISC CPUs may be used as well.

COM Express
Computer on Module
COM Express, defined by the PCI Industrial Computer Manufactures Group (PICMG), is the most successful Computer-On-Module (COM) standard in the embedded market today. COM Express employs a mezzanine-based approach, whereby an off-the-shelve module with two 220-pin board-to-board connectors, plugs into a custom, application-specific carrier board.

Open Standard Module (OSM)
Computer on Module
OSM form factor is the first computer-on-module form factor for solderable BGA mini modules that is natively capable of supporting both ARM and x86 designs. OSM modules are significantly smaller than previously available modules, with the largest measuring 45mm x 45mm. For a growing number of IoT applications this standard helps to combine the advantages of modular embedded computing with increasing requirements regarding cost, foot print and interfaces. The BGA design makes it possible to implement more interfaces on a small footprint. The largest Size-L (Large) measures 45mm x 45mm with 662 BGA pins. The modules are completely machine processible during soldering, assembly and testing.
