COM Express is a COM (Computer On Module) standard defined by PICMG. It combines existing COM with technologies such as PCI Express and Serial ATA. It is a board with CPU, memory, bus, etc., connected to a carrier board by a card carriage and becomes a device that can fully function as a computer.
Adopting COM Express for products makes it possible to speed up product development, simplify development, and reduce development costs. It also improves the product's future potential, as modules compliant with the COM Express standard will be available in the market for years to come.
COM Express is widely used in diagnostic ultrasound equipment, robot arm controls, and control units for measuring equipment. In addition, as of 2015, COM Express is said to have a 30% share of the market as the basis for space-saving PCs, indicating the wide range of applications in which COM Express is used. COM Express is available from various companies and should be selected appropriately to ensure that the product to be implemented meets the required performance, size, and longevity.
COM Express consists of a board, an interface that can be connected to a CPU, memory, bus, USB, etc., a card carriage insert, and a connection to a carrier board. The technology used in COM Express, PCI Express, is a standard for expansion slots that can exchange electrical signals at high speeds, enabling the insertion of graphics cards and other devices. Serial ATA, another technology used in COM Express, is a standard for connecting hard disks and other devices to COM Express, allowing them to exchange data at high speed.
The basic specification of COM Express is 125 mm x 95 mm, and if the size is larger than the specified size, it is 155 mm x 110 mm, which is called an "Intended Type." Since the stipulated size determines the maximum dimensions, many products are available when the size is smaller than the basic specification, and each manufacturer has its own standard.
