The Kontron ETXexpress miniBaseboard serves as a universal platform for rapid software validation. It is ideal for applications designed to run on COM Express compliant designs. The ETXexpress miniBaseboard is a cost-effective alternative to time-consuming full custom designs for small volume projects based on COM Express compliant ETXexpress modules. The ETXexpress miniBaseboard meets the design guidelines of the COM Express Extension and all the interfaces are dedicated for accelerated application testing with freely scalable processor performance. As a result, time-to market for COM Express-compliant ETXexpress embedded applications is significantly reduced.
