B&S:
When can we expect your first SMARC
2.0 Computer-on-Module?
Finstel:
The first launch will be with a new
processor generation. The new Intel Atom,
Celeron and Pentium processors codenamed
Apollo Lake are already launched and it is only
a matter of weeks before our first SMARC
module based on that processor will be avail-
able. We couldn’t make it parallel to the launch
because the time frame from official specifica-
tion release in June to the launch date in early
September was too short.
B&S:
Will SMARC 1.1 modules become
obsolete?
Finstel:
We don’t think so. All relevant low
and ultra-low power processors such as Altera
Cyclone V, Xilinx Zynq, Freescale i.MX6, Intel
Atom E3800 Series, Intel Celeron N3000, Intel
Quark, DMP’s Vortex 86EX, Nvidia Tegra 3 as
well as Texas Instruments ARMCortex A8 and
A9 are perfectly suited for SMARC 1.1. Thus we
expect that we will have modules based on that
specification for many years to come.
B&S:
Thanks for all these insights.
Finstel:
You’re welcome!

Axiomtek: 18.5-inch multi-touch
panel computer for infotainment
Axiomtek introduced the GOT3187WL-834-
PCT, an 18.5-inch fanless multi-touch panel
computer for infotainment and light indus-
try applications. The industrial grade wides-
creen touch panel PC adopts an 18.5” WXGA
TFT LCD display with projected capacitive
touchscreen and 250 nits high brightness. To
provide excellent system performance, the all-
in-one touch panel PC supports quad-core
Intel Celeron processor J1900 with low power
consumption. The 7H surface hardness guar-
antees superior durability
