The SOM-7564 module adopts the open PCI-Express standard that allows connection to third-party chips giving developers even greater flexibility and functionality.

The module is the company’s first to comply with the COM R2.0 type 10 specification. The compact design is about the size of a business card, making it suitable for applications in point-of-sale, transportation, medical and factory devices.

The device is designed with only the CPU on module, an Atom processor E6xx series, which allows users to choose an I/O hub specifically to fulfil their requirements. The company specially designed the SOM-AB5500 application board with this IOH connected to the CPU on SOM-7564 through a PCIe x1 interface. SOM-AB5500 is a 3.5″ carrier board with a smart battery manager that delivers ultralow power consumption and diverse I/O options.

It supports 24-bit LVDS and I/O: 3 PCIe x1, GbE (more I/Os with SOM-AB5500: 2 SATA II, 5 USB 2.0 and 4 serial ports (COM1 supports RS232/422/485 while the rest support RS232 only).

iManager 2.0 provides a suite of programmable APIs such as multilevel watchdog, hardware monitor and smart fan. Since this is a built-in solution on chip, iManager ensures functions operate even if the OS fails.
