Energy Efficiency Critical to Embedded

Power efficiency is important for all

applications

Thinner and lighter

Lower cost – minimal thermals

Lower energy use – reduced operating

costs and carbon footprint

New product categories – wireless

sensors with 15 year battery life

“Buy vs. Make” Embedded Computing Boards

Customer ChallengesFull Custom

(Make)

Standard Board

(Buy)

Time-to-Market• Longer time required to do hardware

development

• Shorter period as hardware and BSP is

ready immediately allowing faster

reaction to market needs.

BOM Costs • Lowest

• Potentially lower as R&D cost can be

amortized over a larger customer base

per board

Lowering development costs

as system complexity

increases

• Dedicated resources need to keep up

with each technologies in the system

translates into more costs for human

capital

• Complex boards designed by module

vendors reduces risky, complexity and

costly for OEM

Increase value through

internal IP development• Some IP may not be differentiating or

valued by the customer

• Limits the OEM investments and allows

critical resources to be applied to IP that

creates value.

Long product life cycles• OEM takes responsibility for all

elements of design

• OEM off loads some of the responsibility

to system board maker

Highlight what is “good” about the Chinese version of the site

Say that the site is getting a lot of attention and growing steadily as we add boards and

vendors
