Mars XU3

Overview

Mars XU3 belongs to the Enclustra Mars family, which uses the industry-standard SO-DIMM form factor. Because it uses the same connector as a common DDR3 memory socket, mounting on the carrier board is simple and both cost and assembly scale well into volume production.

With 108 user I/O the module is compact yet still brings out everything most designs need. Industrial temperature grade is available alongside commercial, so it can be deployed outdoors or in vehicles.

Positive ONE Group supports Mars XU3 end to end: device selection, evaluation kits, access to reference designs and Linux BSPs, and supply and long-term availability in volume production. We work in English and Japanese.
