About Variscite:
Variscite manufacturers a variety of System-On-Modules based on the market's leading SOC vendors such as: Marvell, Freescale and Texas instruments. Variscite's SOMs are ideal for low power, high performance and cost sensitive products. Variscite's SOMs support Windows CE and embedded Linux and are ready to be integrated into any embedded solution.
System on Module (SOM) - is a type of a single-board computer (SBC), a subtype of an embedded computer system, as an extension of the concept of System on Chip (SoC) and lying between a full-up computer and a microcontroller in nature.

Variscite's SOMs are complete computers built on a single circuit board. The design is centered on a single microprocessor with RAM, input/output controllers and all other features needed to be a functional computer on the one board. However, unlike a single-board computer, the COM module will usually lack the standard connectors for any input/output peripherals to be attached directly to the board. Instead, the wiring for these peripherals are bussed out to connectors on the board.

The SOM requires to be mounted on a carrier board (or "baseboard") which breaks the bus out to standard peripheral connectors.

Variscite's SOMs offer a dense package computer system for use in small or specialized applications requiring low power consumption or small physical size as is needed in embedded systems.
