Interface modules simplify system customisation

New from Liantec Systems Corporation, the Tiny-Bus is a modular expansion solution for embedded systems integration. The Tiny-Bus incorporates with 16x PCI-Express graphics, AGP, PCI-Express and PCIbus interfaces on 74 x 91mm of daughterboard. With the Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution, systems integrators can build niche platform systems with special interface modules easily, quickly and cost effectively.

The Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution is integrated with popular bus interfaces including 16x PCI-Express graphics (PCI-EG), AGP, PCI-Express (PCI-E) and PCI via four board-to-board connectors.

For different applications, systems integrators can choose the correct interface module for their niche computing platform, including: a 16x PCI-EG based Nvidia MXM mobile graphics module; an Intel SDVO 1080i HDTV module; a 4x PCI-E SATA RAID module; a PCI-E gigabit Ethernet module; a PCI-E ExpressCard module; an AGP-based VGA module; Intel DVI; VIA DVP; an SiS VB based graphics expansion module; PCI-based PCMCIA; video capture; a switch hub; multiple Ethernet and mini-PCI modules; and other 16x PCI-EG, AGP, PCI-E and PCI-based customised modules.

For software builders and system integrators, the Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution can be help them to build the different platform for different application easily, quickly and cost effectively.

With the Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution, system integrators can build their systems with the same motherboard and different interface modules for different application, or use the same interface module on different motherboards.

With the Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution, the systems integration can be done with the embedded interface modules at the same size as the motherboard.

This feature of the Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution brings the benefit of space-saving for systems integrators who need the smallest, most compact and slimline system enclosure for space-limited embedded computing applications.

To meet the demand of customised ODM/OEM services, the Tiny-Bus modular expansion solution makes it possible to build a customised niche platform based on an existing motherboard and a new customised interface module.

With the same motherboard, the technical risk, lead time and NRE cost of customised ODM solutions is kept under control within the customised interface module rather than a totally new motherboard.
