Our new whitepaper “The Rise of the SoM” explores the benefits of a System-on-Module approach to complex CPU design.
In today’s fast-paced technological landscape, businesses seek innovative solutions to stay ahead. One such breakthrough is the System-on-Module (SoM), a compact and versatile approach to embedding complex processing systems, offering a streamlined path to market, significant cost savings and enhanced scalability.
A System-on-Module integrates the core components of a processing system onto a single modular printed circuit board, suitable for applications ranging from digital signage to advanced robotics. Historically, SoMs were utilised mainly by smaller organisations lacking in-house technology capabilities. However, larger producers are now adopting this approach for its numerous benefits.
SoMs drastically reduce time to market, enhance product competitiveness and lower development and sourcing costs. They enable businesses to seamlessly source replacements and additional modules with identical specifications, ensuring minimal production disruption. SoMs are being successfully deployed in industrial, medical and automotive applications
With contributions from our engineering team and several of our leading SoM suppliers, our whitepaper explores the SoM landscape, examines what the market is looking for in a SoM and reviews the ascent of connected services and the future of SoMs.
