1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The nanoX Starter Kit is intended for testing and verification of COM Express systems based
on Type 1 and Type 10 modules and complies with the PICMG® COM.0 R1.0 and R2.0
specification. It includes everything customers need to begin their own design and
development.
The nanoX Starter Kit includes the nanoX-BASE standard ATX size COM Express reference
carrier board, a Mini size COM Express module of your choice, and additional items such as
cabling, power supply and thermal solution. The complete kit allows customers to quickly
emulate the functionality of their end product for software development and hardware
verification. Drivers, BSPs, design files (including schematics, mechanical drawings and
BOM), certificates and test reports are included to assist customers in designing their own
custom carrier board. The nanoX Starter Kit also includes additional development tools
including a verified 10.1" LVDS flat panel display, an LVDS-to-TTL conversion board, and
ADD2 DVI card.
