Kontron COM Express ETXexpress-SC computer-on-module range

Kontron has extended its COM Express basic ETXexpress-SC computer-on-module product family with three entry-level modules equipped with the cost-optimised Intel Celeron dual core processor and Intel HM65 platform controller hub.

The Celeron processor-based SKUs are entry-level additions to the company’s COM express computer-on-modules range, based on Intel’s monolithic microarchitecture.

With these latest versions, the ETXexpress-SC is now available in nine different performance versions with type 2 and type 6 pin-out ensuring developers get the exact performance they require.

The modules are suitable for applications that demand dual core processing and extended graphics capabilities, but do not require the extended features of the Intel Core i3/i5/i7 versions.

The energy-saving power-off state S5 Eco microampere mode minimises power consumption by a factor of 200 (minimum), compared with the regular S5 state.

Offering video capabilities with digital display interfaces for SDVO, DisplayPort and DVI/HDMI plus one CRT and one dual-channel 18/24 bit LVDS output, the modules enable multi-display solutions with one platform supporting several displays. The modules are supported by the companyÂ’s COM Express Starterkit Type 6 and embedded application interface. These help developers reduce the development time of new designs and upgrades.
