ACTIS Computer
With integration level of IC's offering the possibility to pack a complete Computer on very small PCB form factor we have seen the creation of many new proprietary form factor targeting the replacement of the venerable old PC-104 Mezzanine concept, like ETX, E2Brain, DIMM-PC,
EPIC, X-Board, etc... (many of them invented by Kontron).
These Computer On Module (COM) or System On Module (SOM) are designed to help the final user to build his own system without the burden of designing the CPU part of the project but to focus on the application specific carrier. This is a smart approach, however most of these new products use very high density connectors which make the carrier board PCB very difficult to design and these COM or SOM not usable in prototyping environment !
This is the reason which motivated ACTIS Computer Engineers to bring to the market a new fresh Concept based on a compact (but not too much) 32-bit PowerPC SBC with all the most common interfaces, memory equipment, and a peripheral extension bus available through a very popular flat cable connection for easy integration with specific User's I/O Boards or even wire-wraps prototype boards.
