chiliSOM
The chiliSOM is an ultra small, extremely low power, state of art module based on ARM Cortex A8 processor. Modular design makes it easy to embed to your device without any connector. By placing the most critical signals in the module, even very complex peripherals can be placed using two PCB layers. This allows a significant reduction in production costs.
The chiliSOM is ideally suitable for applications requiring high degree of density and high computational power at extremely low power consumption. The module is designed to operate with all major OS. It is preconfigured for Linux and Android. With a rich set of peripherals the module is designed to cater for a wide range of applications.
