Connect Tech: COM Express carrier board with PC/104 expansions

Connect Tech announce the availability of its new COM Express carrier board, a full featured compact carrier (175 x 115mm), compatible with COM Express Type 2 Basic or Compact modules. Optional expansion capabilities via PCI-104 or PCI/104-Express allow users to easily add I/O, FPGA or a myriad of other peripherals from the extensive PC/104 ecosystem to create a unique commercial-off-the-shelf solution.

The COM Express carrier board features SATA, mSATA, Compact Flash, USB, Gigabit Ethernet, Serial, GPIO and LVDS/VGA/HDMI video, and can be used with any COM Express module from major manufacturers for access to the most current processors. Should a modified or custom carrier be required, Connect Tech offers design services for projects of all sizes.
