Type 7 Starter Kit Plus
Introduction 1
1. Introduction
The Type 7 Starter Kit Plus is intended for testing and verification of COM Express systems based on Type 7
modules and includes everything customers need to begin their own design and development. The Type 7 Starter
Kit Plus includes the Express-BASE7 ATX size COM Express Type 7 reference carrier board, a COM Express
Type 7 module (of your choice), memory (of your choice), thermal solution (heatspreader or heatsink, of your
choice) and additional items such as a debug card, cabling, and ATX power supply.
The complete kit allows cusomters to quickly emulate the functionality of their end product for software
development and hardware verification. Drivers, BSP, carrier board design files (including schematics, mechanical
drawings and BOM), certificates, test reports, COM Express module user’s manual and thermal solution drawing
are included to assist cusomters in designing their own custom carrier board.
The Type 7 Starter Kit Plus also includes additional development cards, such as a 10GbE adapter card that
converts 10GBase-KR to 10GbE optical fiber (SFP+ Card) or 10GbE copper (BASE-T card) signals, a PCIe x16 to
two PCIe x8 adapter card (P16TO28) and a debug card (DB40).
The Type 7 Starter Kit Plus also includes a USB flash drive with SEMA pre-installed in a Linux OS environment.
This helps customers quickly review the features provided by the EAPI.
