ETX, standing for Embedded Technology eXtended, is a highly integrated and compact (3.7 x 4.9 in.) (95 x 125 mm) computer-on-module (COM) form factor that can be used in a design application much like an integrated circuit component. Each ETX COM integrates core CPU and memory functionality, the common I/O of a PC/AT (serial, parallel, etc.), USB, audio, graphics, and Ethernet. All I/O signals as well as a full implementation of ISA and PCI buses are mapped to four high density, low profile connectors on the bottom side of the module. ETX boards are available with AMD Geode, VIA, Intel Pentium, Celeron and Core Duo processors. XTXTM offers an 75% pin-compatible upgrade path to ETX standard. XTX drops the ISA bus and adds PCI-Express, SATA, and LPC. COM Express is a new COM standard. It is also known by the name "ETXexpress"; somewhat confusing because this standard has actually nothing to do with the ETX standard. Kontron Embedded Modules is a founding member of the ETX Industrial Group (ETX-IG). ETX and ETXexpress are trademarks or registered trademarks of Kontron Embedded Modules GmbH Source: Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ETX_(form_factor))
