SMART
The smartCoreExpress supports small footprints and especially mobile applications. It is powered by the
modern Intel Atom CPU technology.
To select the correct module, this chapter compares the different PCIe-based module concepts. All concepts
allow minimum (required) and maximum (optional) features.
The following table summarizes the features of all PCIe COMs.
