API Support (CGOS)
In order to benefit from the above mentioned non-industry standard feature set, congatec provides an API that allows application software
developers to easily integrate all these features into their code. The CGOS API (congatec Operating System Application Programming Interface)
is the congatec proprietary API that is available for all commonly used Operating Systems such as Win32, Win64, Linux. The architecture of the
CGOS API driver provides the ability to write application software that runs unmodified on all congatec CPU modules. All the hardware related
code is contained within the congatec embedded BIOS on the module. See section 1.1 of the CGOS API software developers guide, which is
available on the congatec website.

Security Features
The conga-QA5 can be equipped optionally with a “Trusted Platform Module“ (TPM 1.2/2.0). This TPM 1.2/2.0 includes coprocessors to
calculate efficient hash and RSA algorithms with key lengths up to 2,048 bits as well as a real random number generator. Security sensitive
applications like gaming and e-commerce will benefit also with improved authentication, integrity and confidence levels.
6.7
Suspend to RAM
The Suspend to RAM feature is available on the conga-QA5.
