Integrated Subsystems

Two ways Elma can help address your system integration needs:

  • AppliPaks - board level fully integrated and custom configured computing solutions integrating Intel or PowerPC based single board computers in VPX, VME and cPCI form factors with your choice of storage and or I/O mezzanine cards, operating systems and device drivers.
  • Chassis level integrated solutions completely integrated and ready for your development needs or as deployed systems.

Starting with product proposals, we put our 30 plus years of system integration experience to work to ensure all parties understand the task at hand then generate design and build plans in support of critical project milestones. Each system is fully documented including data sheets, manuals, test results, a complete drawings package and all control documents. We provide complete system level testing, including extended environmental testing under application load.

We combine our extensive line of chassis and storage solutions with board products from industry leading partners to address your integrated system needs. Our best in class partner products ensure each system contains the right payload for any application. Fully integrated chassis level systems are available in VITA (VPX and VME64x), PICMG and ATCA.


The result is a fully integrated system solution supplied under a single part number and ready for service.

Product transition, obsolescence and EOL are facts of life in the embedded computing industry.
Elma protects your investment and help you manage change. We do this by:

  • Maintaining close relationships with our suppliers and monitoring their roadmaps
  • Monitoring industry trends
  • Making last time buys when necessary
  • Proactively designing in replacement components while attempting to reduce impact on functionality and cost
  • Participation in standards committees
  • Preserving legacy investments with backwards compatible upgrades whenever possible.

We manage lead times to meet your requirements by stocking key material and subassemblies that are ready to ship - fully configured and tested - when you need them.
