We’re delighted to cofirm availability of an extended range of Computer-on-Modules (COMs) and System-on-Modules (SOMs), both of which are aimed at embedded system applications, providing complete computing solutions.

In case you were seeking clarification on the differences between the two, COMs focus on providing core computing capabilities, while SOMs are designed to be closer to complete systems with more integrated peripherals, preferred for applications needing a compact, integrated solution. A COM typically includes a processor, memory, and essential peripherals on a single board, with the primary function to provide computing power, and often requiring a carrier board for additional connectivity. A SOM is similar, but typically includes more integrated components. 

Inelco Hunter has a longstanding franchised distribution agreement with SoM Labs, an established partner of leading MPU manufacturers like NXP, Renesas and STMicroelectronics. SoMLabs aims to select the best solutions for its designs to ensure at least 7-10 years longevity for its products, based on the commitment provided by the chip vendors.

Our wide range includes Linux SOMs and Carrier Boards, plus the new SMARC SOM from our display partner Powertip. This is an innovative, powerful, ultra-small SOM designed for applications demanding compactness and energy efficiency. It uses the SMARC standard, which makes it ideal for mobile devices, fleet management, factory automation, medical equipment, portable devices, and industrial IoT applications.

You can customise and incorporate your COM or SOM quickly and efficiently, when you make the most of our experienced engineering team, making your project faster and more cost-effective.
