Chapter 1 About This Manual Purpose of this Manual This manual is for designers of systems based on the Express-HRR Computer-on-Module (COM). This manual contains information that permits designers to create an embedded system based on specific design requirements.
Chapter 1 • About This Manual AMI BIOS Aptio TSE User’s Guide Datasheet: http://www.ami.com/support/doc/AMI_TSE_User_Manual_PUB.pdf Chip Specifications • Intel® Corporation and the Core™ i7 2nd Generation Mobile series CPU, featured as the integrated processor core and graphics memory hub Web site: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/core/CoreTechnicalResources.
Chapter 2 Product Overview This introduction presents general information about the COM Express™ architecture and the Express-HRR Computer-on-Module (COM). After reading this chapter you should understand: • COM Express concept • COM Express architecture • Express-HRR Product Description • Express-HRR Major Components • Express-HRR Connectors, Headers, and Sockets • Express-HRR Specifications COM Express Concept COM Express is an open-industry standard, defined specifically for COM boards.
Chapter 2 Product Overview Baseboard designers can utilize as little or as many of the I/O interfaces as necessary. The baseboard can therefore provide all the interface connectors required to attach the system to the application specific peripherals. This versatility allows the designer to create a dense and optimized package, which results in a more reliable product while simplifying system integration.
Chapter 2 Product Overview Product Description The Express-HRR is an exceptionally high integration, high performance, rugged Intel Core™ i7 processor based system compatible with the COM Express standard.
