microETXexpress®-SP

The Kontron microETXexpress®-SP Computer-on-Module is designed to extend the COM Express™ specification to include the compact module format (95 x 95 mm) with the commonly used COM Express™ Type 2 connector. This enables the development of energy-saving, high-end graphics devices based on the Intel® Atom™ processor (up to 1.6GHz) and the Intel® System Controller Hub US15W without having to stray from the secure development path of utilizing an established and future-proof industry standard.

The Kontron microETXexpress®-SP offers PCI as well as more sophisticated graphics support with SDVO. Via the PEG pinout, SDVO delivers additional video signals for VGA and DVI monitor outputs, SDTV and HDTV television outputs and TV tuner inputs that greatly simplify system graphics design. This special feature makes this 95 x 95 mm Computer-on-Module ideal for small mobile and extremely energy-efficient multimedia devices as well as for mobile test and measurement applications. At the same time, microETXexpress®-SP is fully compatible to COM Express™ Pinout Type 2: Gigabit Ethernet, Serial ATA, LVDS and USB 2.0.

The COM Express™ compatibility allows easy interchangeability and ensures design scaleability and future migration paths. For additional details regarding the microETXexpress® specification as a proposed extension to the PICMG® COM Express™ specification, please visit:
