SoM enables embedded designs with low-power consumption

eInfochips unveiled the Eragon410 development kit and System-on-Module (SoM), based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor, for companies designing embedded products and solutions.

The Eragon410 product line is based on a 26mm x 35mm SoM that acts as a building block for a wide range of products requiring low power consumption and connectivity, while providing a multimedia experience with solid processing power.

The development kit comprises of a connector-less carrier board that interfaces the SoM via edge castellation for an added cost and size benefit, making the Eragon410 useful to applications such as robotics, infotainment, automation and control, and Internet of Things (IoT) including wearable technology.

eInfochips also provides design services that help ensure the seamless transition of software developed on the DragonBoard 410c community board to the Eragon410 platform for commercialisation.

Qualcomm's 64bit Snapdragon 410 processor is based on quad-core ARM Cortex A53 and offers advanced processing capabilities at low power. Leveraging on the Snapdragon 410 processor's performance and functionality, eInfochips offers a powerful and low-cost platform engineered to allow rapid development of solutions and to address the expanding embedded computing and Internet of Everything (IoE) platforms using Android, Linux and Windows 10 operating systems.

"The Snapdragon 410 processor is a powerful enablement technology for embedded solutions providers to support off-the-shelf or custom system-on-modules, support and design services for commercial deployments," said Tia Cassett, senior director, product management, Qualcomm Technologies Inc.
