2nd Generation SMARC Reference Carrier Board

2nd Generation SMARC Reference Carrier Board

SMARC vs COM Express COM Express is a very successful computer-on-module (COM) standard that is optimized for PC architecture based embedded systems. The COM Express feature set exploits contemporary PC chipsets very well. There is support for numerous USB ports and PCI Express lanes, PCI Express graphics, LPC bus and PCI bus, as well as power pins supporting over 100 watts. The SMARC specification targets lower power, small form factor systems. The SMARC pin out is optimized for features common to ARM CPUs rather than those of the PC architecture. Some of these features include parallel LCD display interfaces; provisions for serial and parallel camera input; multiple I2C, I2S, SPI and serial port options; USB client/host mode and OTG (on the go) operation and SD/eMMC card operation.
