Module and development board for portability

Advantech COM-Express SOM-5775, designed with Intel Atom processor Z500 series, takes advantage of the Atom platform in the new SOM-Express Micro form factor.

It performs the same functions as traditional SOM-Express modules but with a smaller board size of 95 x 95mm. Advantech’s new SOM-5775 module and development board has been designed to enable embedded developers to create more mobile and portable applications. SOM-5775 is Advantech’s first SOM board using the Intel Atom platform. The pin definitions of SOM-5775 are the same as a standard COM-Express board and can work directly with existing carrier boards, while supporting DDR2 memory up to 1GB, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, 8 USB 2.0 ports and PCIe interface, and the integrated graphic engine supports CRT and 24-bit LCD display modes. The target OS platform will be Windows XP embedded and Vista.
