SGET presents OSM specification for smallest Computer-on-Module
SGET, a technical consortium hosting and developing specifications for embedded computer technology, has announced release 1.0 of the new OSM Computer-on-Module standard.
OSM (Open Standard Module) defines one of the first standards for directly solderable and scalable embedded computer modules and marks a milestone in the miniaturization of modular COM/carrier designs, replacing credit card-sized modules with postage stamp-sized ones.
The specification aims to standardise the footprint and interface set of low-power and ultra-low-power application processors based on MCU32, ARM and x86 architectures across different sockets, manufacturers and architectures. Target applications of the new module standard include IoT-connected embedded, IoT, and edge systems that run open-source operating systems and are used in harsh industrial environments.
