    Easy Development Advantech has support firmware, root file-system, BSP or other develop tools for cus- tomers. It helps customers to easy develop their carrier board and differentiate their embedded products and applications.
  • Page 78 Advantech has been involved in the industrial computer industry for many years and found that customers usually have the following questions when implementing modu- lar designs.
  • Page 79 RISC COM. Design stage When a product moves into the design stage, Advantech will supply a design guide of the carrier board for reference. The carrier board design guide provides pin defini- tions of the COM connector with limitations and recommendations for carrier board design, so customers can have a clear guideline to follow during their carrier board development.

  • Page 80: Contact Information

    RISC platforms usually have less support for ready-made drivers on the carrier board, therefore the customer has to learn from trial and error and finally get the best solution with the least effort. Advantech’s team has years of experience in customer support and HW/SW development knowledge. Consequently, we can support customers with professional advice and information as well as shortening development time and enabling more effective product integration.
