• 適用于 Versatile Express 子板的拖放式 USB 驅動器配置機制
• 功能強大的啟動監視器程序可以配置子板并啟動應用軟件映像
• 單元預先裝載了 Debian Linux 安裝程序
• 可以通過 RS232 端口遠程控制系統電源并重置信號
• 緊湊獨立的系統，攜帶方便并適合進行展示或客戶部署

Versatile Express 主板規格參數手冊內容摘要

The Versatile Express family development platform provides
an excellent environment for prototyping the next
generation of system-on-chip designs. Through a range of
plug-in daughterboards hardware and software applications
can be developed and debugged.
The Motherboard Express ATX is a motherboard especially
designed to support future generations of ARM processors,
starting with support for the Cortex -A9 processor. It
enables:
