1.2. Product Naming Clarification

The product names for Kontron COM Express® Computer-on-Modules consist of a short form of the industry
standard (COMe-), the form factor (b=basic, c=compact, m=mini), the capital letters for the CPU and Chipset
Codenames (XX) and the pin-out type (#) followed by the CPU Name.
COM Express® defines a Computer-On-Module, or COM, with all components necessary for a bootable host computer,
packaged as a super component.
 COMe-bXX# modules are Kontron's COM Express® modules in basic form factor (125 mm x 95 mm)
 COMe-cXX# modules are Kontron's COM Express® modules in compact form factor (95 mm x 95 mm)
 COMe-eXX# modules are Kontron's COM Express® modules in extended form factor (155 mm x 110 mm)
The COMe Eval Carrier T7 (A2T7) fits all three types of modules.
1.3. Understanding COM Express® Functionality
All Kontron COM Express® extended, basic and compact modules contain two 220pin connectors; each of it has two
rows called Row A & B on primary connector and Row C & D on secondary connector. The COM Express® Computer-
On-Module (COM) features the following maximum amount of interfaces according to the PCI Industrial Computer
