congatec presents first µQseven computer modules

congatec accelerates ongoing miniaturization trend by offering µQseven modules with Freescale i.MX 6 processors

congatec AG, a leading technology company for embedded computer modules, single board computers (SBCs) and embedded design and manufacturing (EDM) services, is extending its product portfolio for the most popular Qseven standard by now offering Computer-on-Modules in the 40 mm x 70 mm sub-credit-card µQseven format. The first flagship module of this next generation mini form factor is the conga-UMX6 with ARM Cortex A9-based Freescale i.MX 6 processors. It caters to applications in harsh environments, which require not only compact low-power designs, but also appealing multimedia and computing performance. Applications benefit from the new conga-UMX6 µQseven computer modules’ ARM-consistent, long-term availability of 10+ years, high performance-per-watt with a typical power consumption of just 3.5 watts, plus the extended temperature support of -40°C to +85°C.

The feature set of the new application-ready congatec µQseven modules is perfectly tailored for traffic systems, in-vehicle systems, small size PLCs, parking ticket machines and any other embedded or IoT application that requires a space-saving design and low power consumption.

Users of the new µQseven computer modules benefit from the high level of standardization and scalability of this form factor, which enables very small and flat designs. In addition, congatec’s extensive documentation, industry-grade driver implementations and experienced personal integration support help OEMs to integrate this processor technology very fast and efficiently into their individual applications. Users already deploying Qseven designs can immediately test the new µQseven modules, thanks to their pin compatibility with Qseven modules.
