Rapid Customization of Motherboards, Computer-on-Modules & COM Carriers
in 4 to 8 weeks
Emerson Network
Power’s RapiDex™ service offers optimized board designs for all
applications where a COTS board is not suitable. The RapiDex™ service is
a rapid board
customization program that allows OEMs to specify processor, I/O,
connector and other options within a custom board form factor. The
service is available for boards using Intel® embedded processors.
The RapiDex™ service is
fast and remarkably straightforward for the customer to use: no special
contracts, no statements of work and no project supervision are
required. And unlike conventional customization engagements, the
customer need make no commitment on production volume numbers, and the
minimum order quantity is merely 100 units.
The RapiDex™ service is
also priced to reflect the resources of the vast majority of embedded
design projects: the customer pays a small manufacturing setup fee, no
Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) fees, and unit costs per board shipped
are comparable to the
price of a standard part.
This new service is the
result of innovative developments in design and manufacturing automation
pioneered by Emerson Network Power, and it brings the advantages of
board customization to a far wider range of embedded OEMs than could
previously benefit from it.
As
one of the most respected vendors in the embedded board space, Emerson
is a Premier partner in the Intel® Embedded Alliance and collaborates
closely with Intel to enable customers to bring products to market
quickly. Emerson’s RapiDex service is based on select Intel
embedded processors and chipsets, with custom boards available within a
few weeks of silicon launch.
