INTRODUCTION
The COM Express™ mainboard MB-COME6-4 is a carrier board for COM Express™ modules with Type 6 pinout.
It can be used for panel PCs, embedded computers or as an evaluation platform for COM Express™ modules.
In combination with a standard COM Express™ module it forms a very compact hardware kit that can be used for a freely scalable
embedded PC platform. Because of this – with uniform interfaces and dimensions – the PC system can be easily adapted to suit
the requirements of the application. The wide range of extension options and storage media, which can be added, offer a high
level of flexibility and allow functionalities and performance to be extended easily, quickly and inexpensively.
Typical usage is in embedded server applications, PC systems for automation, visualisation and monitoring and all applications
that place high demands on quality, durability and long-term availability.
