The pin-out of PSMC-C300ARM is optimized for the features specifically common to ARM® processors. The modular approach allows scalability, fast time to market and upgradability while still maintaining low power and cost performance
SMARC (Smart Mobility ARChitecture) is an intelligent solution for embedded systems and IoT projects. SMARC’s compact size and standardized interfaces suit it for industrial automation, medical equipment, and transportation systems. A computer-on-module (COM) standard sets size, power supply, and interface guidelines for a compact, integrated design. The Standardization Group for Embedded Technologies (SGET) manages the SMARC standard, which top module and board manufacturers widely use.
Embedded systems and Internet of Things (IoT) projects favor SMARC Modular for its benefits, including compact size, standardization, versatility, comprehensive processor/memory support, compatibility with OS, cost-effectiveness, and robustness.
Measuring only 82mm x 50mm, they are an ideal option for projects with limited space. They also feature a standardized array of interfaces, including USB, Ethernet, serial, and display, allowing for compatibility and interchangeable use between modules from different manufacturers. The flexible expansion interface further supports additional interfaces such as PCI Express, SATA, and USB 3.0, allowing designers to customize to their specific needs.
Support a wide range of processors and memory options, including x86, ARM, and RISC-based processors, as well as DDR3 and DDR4 memory. Additionally, they are compatible with various operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, and Android. Their cost-effectiveness stems from integrating the processing and memory components into a single module, reducing the need for additional details, and reducing development time and cost.
The SMARC standard also outlines guidelines for environmental protection and EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) compliance, ensuring the modules are reliable for use in demanding applications. These features make SMARC an attractive option for embedded systems and IoT projects that require compact, scalable, and cost-effective solutions.
Consider the intended use of the SMARC product to select the best one for your business needs. Will it power a display, control manufacturing, or serve another purpose? This will narrow your options.
Next, weigh the size of the SMARC product and its placement. Choose a smaller form factor if space is tight, but opt for a more significant form factor if you have ample room and need more power.
The processing power is also an essential factor to consider. Different SMARC products offer varying processing power and memory levels, so make sure to choose one that can handle the demands of your industry.
Finally, examine the connectivity options and other available features. Please choose a product with all the necessary components and ensure it is compatible with other devices in your industry.
