Stutensee, Germany – MSC Vertriebs GmbH has become a member of the FeaturePak™Initiative unveiled March 1, 2010 which supports a new flexible embedded I/O expansion standard. The FeaturePak^™ specification defines tiny, application-specific I/O modules with a size of 65 x 43 mm that snap into low-cost, low-profile sockets on computer-on-module (COM) baseboards. With the I/O modules, customers are able to add additional functions to COM baseboards without adding height to the system. The compactness of the FeaturePak™ modules is specially important in combination with Qseven™ modules in 70 x 70 mm format.
