Painless Upgrades, Fast Integration with Avalue COM Module Products

September 23, 2020, Taiwan, Taipei – As a member of Intel® Internet of Things Solutions Alliance, industrial embedded PC maker Avalue Technology (stock code: 3479) endeavors to provide a complete range of embedded solutions, developing various embedded mainboards, systems and related solutions that meet market requirements. In recent years, many countries and industries are investing in Industry 4.0, and smart manufacturing and automation. As personalization, customization, and fast development and integration, become the key trends, the manufacturing industry needs to change in order to meet market requirements. In the last 20 years, Avalue has focused on developing embedded industrial computers that meet industrial needs, investing heavily in R&D manpower and resources to create solutions that benefit both Avalue and the market, including embedded system, embedded computing, embedded COM Express, industrial motherboards, panel PC, Barebone, tablet, Industry 4.0 solutions, retail solutions, medical solutions and diverse range of IoT applications.

COM Express is a computer-on-module standard defined by PICMG (PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group). Each module integrates CPU, chipset, memory and evaluation board for peripheral devices. It is the ideal choice for customization as it adopts a standardized specification. All it takes for developers to upgrade their equipment is to replace the CPU module with one that meets their performance requirements. There is no need to redesign the entire motherboard, and it greatly increases product development speed while significantly reducing development cycle and development risks. COM Express defines three standard module sizes, i.e. compact (95x95mm), basic (95x125mm) and extended (155x110mm), and the mini size (84x55mm) which was added later. Avalue COMe encompasses everything from the different types (Type 6, Type 10, etc.), sizes (mini, compact, basic, etc.), to even smaller size Qseven, evaluation carrier boards and SMARC. Suitable for different environments, Avalue COMe products are small in size and fanless, feature wide-temperature operating range, and provide customized BIOS. CPUs used include Intel’s low-power Atom and high-performance multicore i-series, and ARM and AMD architectures. Based on PICMG standard, sufficient signal sources, such as DDI, PCI Express, SATA, USB, SMBus, LPC and DIO, are provided to meet the requirements of different carrier boards, allowing for easy adoption and use.
