- 29. 29 www.SUNDANCE.com SUMMARY Main reasons for SoM Modules? Redundancy, Obsolescence & Cost Why opt for “Open Hardware” Modules? You should get the circuit diagrams Technical benefits? You can focus on carrier, firmware and software Support from an experienced Team with sharing application Commercial benefits? The cost of a typical SoM is similar to the cost of the device Less stock, Less risk
