Other than the usual reasons of vendor-independence, another reason to use a #ComputerOnModule conforming to the #SMARC standard is that one-off SoM/CoM solutions have vague definitions for power sequencing and power control. The SMARC standard has nice clear definitions for what happens during power-up, stand-by, power button, and battery status signals. Also SMARC supports up to two USB3.1 ports. #EmbeddedLinux #Cyberdeck
