MSC Vertriebs
MSC Q7-US15W
MSC Vertriebs is offering ready-to-use starter kits for the quick evaluation and development of its MSC Q7-US15W, an Intel Atom processor-based Qseven platform.
The complete starter-kit MSC Q7-SK-US15W-RP-002 contains the reference platform MSC Q7-MP-RP, integrating the Qseven module MSC Q7-US15W with Intel Atom Z530 CPU, the Qseven heatspreader MSC Q7-Heatspreader-US15W, an ADD2 VGA interface card and a SVGA TFT display including backlight inverter.
The development package also includes a bootable USB memory stick with a Ubuntu Linux installation.
The Qseven starter kit MSC Q7-SK-US15W-RP-001 only consists of the baseboard and the Qseven module with heat-spreader.
MSC Vertriebs has announced three variations of its Qseven module MSC Q7-US15W in the compact small-form factor 70 x 70mm, varying in main features such as processor performance and number of SATA ports and PCI Express x1 lanes.
The scalable computer-on-modules were specifically developed for power-saving processor technologies, for example Intel Atom CPU.
They are ideally suited for mobile, battery-operated and fanless systems.
With the MSC Qseven reference platform MSC Q7-MP-RP, customers as well as manufacturers can perform compliance tests and verify their module interoperability.
These are important elements to support the complete openness of the standard and to ensure the easy interchangeability of compact computer-on-modules from different vendors.
The reference platform offers four PCI Express x1 slots, eight USB 2.0 ports, Gbit LAN and digital audio interfaces.
