MSC Supports New Qseven ™ Specification 1.20

MSC Vertriebs GmbH, one of the founding members of the Qseven ™ consortium, now also supports the extended Qseven ™ specification version 1.20. In the future all MSC Qseven ™ module variants will comply with the most recent version of the specification.

One highlight of the Qseven ™ specification version 1.20 is its support for the widely used ARM architecture which will allow completely new applications.

MSC engineering is working hard to develop new modules. Look out for interesting announcements from MSC in the next few weeks!
