The SMARC 2.0 Starter Kit for SMARC modules with the Intel Atom E3900 processors is based on a Mini-ITX SMARC 2.0 carrier board MSC SM2S-MB-EP1 and contains all necessary products to quickly enable the user to run and evaluate the SM2S-AL module range. The kit does not contain a SMARC module in order to give the user greater flexibility as to which particular module version and CPU speed variant is desired. As part of the SMARC 2.0 Starterkit, two heatsinks will be supplied (one for Atom-based modules and one for Pentium/Celeron-based modules). A power supply with cable kit is also included for convenience. Direct screen output on a PC monitor is possible using the on-board DisplayPort output. As an option to the Starter Kit several suitable LCD kits of various resolutions and sizes are available upon request.
