The X-board Solution

X-board Computer-On-Modules are ideal solutions for embedded designs where low power, mid-to-high perfor- mance and small size is required. Current modules sup- port X86 and XScale CPUs. Future modules based on RISC CPUs such as ARM and MIPS are planned.

X-board offers the perfect mix of interfaces for a new generation of embedded applications: Legacy-free I/O including USB, serial, IDE, Ethernet, graphics and sound interfaces. X-board modules support both FLASH and DRAM onboard memory for stand-alone operation.

The X-board host site on the application-specific base- board is a simple SO-DIMM-style connector. The base- board provides the drive electronics and physical con- nectors for the I/O originating on the X-board. Additional I/O and application-specific subsystems may be placed on the baseboard designed as PCI or LPC bus peripherals.
