MiniModule Roadmap

MiniModule Strategy

• Round out I/O support for SBCs and CPUs
• LittleBoards
• CoreModules
• ReadyBoards
• I/O which is not typically found on motherboards
• Leverage partnerships to broaden family
• Bring leading edge I/O to the embedded market
• Keep our accounts away from CPU competitors
• SBC/CPU business at risk
• Raise the ASP at low- to mid-volume accounts
• High-volume accounts typically consider
  semi-custom, custom, or COMs solutions
• I/O card market has quietly grown to 40M
  worldwide

I/O Categories

• Communications / Networking
• Ethernet, Serial
• High-Speed Data
• USB 2.0, IEEE 1394 Firewire
• Flexible I/O
• General-Purpose I/O (GPIO, DIO), Analog
• Removable
• PC Card
