This page is obsolete: the EOMA/PCMCIA CPU Card form-factor has been renamed to [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68|EOMA-68]] to avoid confusion over the legacy name "PCMCIA". EOMA-68 is '''not''' electrically compatible with PCMCIA and is '''not''' mechanically compatible with PCMCIA, despite re-using the mass-volume PCMCIA connectors, housings, assemblies and case-work in order to bring the mass-volume price down on EOMA-68 CPU Cards.

(This section is left here for convenience: the name has however changed).  Here is a list of example designs which conform the the EOMA-68 Standard:
 
 
 
* [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68/MiniEngineeringBoard|Mini Engineering Board]] - suitable for Free Software Developers, ODM Development, SoC "Board Support Packages", Experimentation, Prototyping, Electrical Engineers, Training and R&D purposes.
 
* [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68/EngineeringBoard|Monster Engineering Board]] - suitable for ODM Development "Demonstration" Purposes: designed to be "cut down to size", requiring the minimum amount of CAD/CAM Development effort and maximising return on investment.
 
* [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68/Tablet|The Obligatory Tablet]] - a simple tablet motherboard which could potentially be developed as a very low cost single-sided 2-layer PCB.  Components are chosen to reduce development cost and risk, as well as reduce manufacturing cost.
 
* [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68/Laptop|Laptop]] - a laptop motherboard which could potentially be developed as a very low cost single-sided 2-layer PCB, through the use of modular and optional components for WIFI and 3G.
 
* [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68/LCD-TV|LCD (TV)]] - an LCD Monitor (or Picture Frame) which can be upgraded into a TV or an All-in-One Computer or an Internet TV or Personal Video Recorder or Media Centre.  very versatile yet simple to do.
 
* [[Embedded_Open_Modular_Architecture/EOMA-68/Passthrough|Passthrough or "Blank" Card]] - a special type of card which simply passes through the connectors.
