11. PC/104 EXPANSION SYSTEM
Overview
Elton baseboard embeds the PC/104 Expansion Module that integrates PCI and PCIe connectors in a
compact-sized form-factor measuring approximately 3.6" x 3.8" (90mm x 96mm).
The PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express/PCIe) architecture improvises on the
conventional PCI bus configurations to deliver the next generation PC/104 high-speed serial bus expansion
system, implemented by a pair of surface mount connectors in a slot-oriented platform that incorporates a
non-conventional point-to-point interface technology, while still retaining compatibility within the conventional
PCI framework.
Designed for stackability and system expansion, the PC/104 Module with the OneBank implementation
capabilities offers scalability, extensibility, and modularity, suitable for all environments, including Military,
Transportation, Industrial and Aviation sectors.
The following figures present an overview of the PC/104 board layouts on 104 form factors with Express
Connectors, Three Banks and OneBank respectively.
