‘Pci Express’

An Electronicstalk guide

Start with the news release Kontron develops COM Express starter kit from Kontron UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Kontron MicroETXexpress evaluation kit offers developers a fast introduction into the compact class of COM Express. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Toby Electronics offers Ultra-Hard Metric socket from Toby Electronics: "3M has introduced an Ultra-Hard Metric (UHM) socket that can deliver backplane speeds in excess of 7Gbps in systems based on 2mm hard metric connectors. ".
 
In July 2009, we covered the news from Aaeon - take a look at Aaeon unveils COM Express module and carrier board which says: "Aaeon has launched the COM-U15 COM Express module and an associated carrier board, the ECB-951D. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from National Instruments, NI develops controller for wireless testing, as well as Quad transceivers extend backplane and cable reach from National Semiconductor, and Congatec adds XA945 module to range from Congatec.
