The growing interest in exploring modular hardware instead of a traditional chip-down approach requires an understanding of the pros and cons of each approach, say James Jaksich and Camron Chilton. There are five key benefits of a system-on-module (som) approach, which will help engineers through the make vs buy decision process. Flexibility Standards defining size, connectors and interfaces play a ...
