SoM & SoC Migration (EOL Replacement)
Move to a new system-on-module or SoC because of cost, end-of-life or performance, with the software coming along.

The problem
SoM changes look like a hardware swap but are mostly software work: BSP, drivers, boot, update compatibility and requalification.
End-of-life module
The current SoM is being discontinued or becoming too expensive.
Software is the hard part
BSP, drivers and update compatibility take most of the effort.
Two hardware generations in the field
Old and new units need a common software and update path.
What we do
Migration plan, ported software and validation report.
Target SoM selection
Carrier board change assessment
BSP and driver porting
Update path from old to new hardware
Validation and requalification
Our Engineering Process
