Technical systems integrator to deliver application-ready technology to UK customers, speeding time-to-market, increasing system reliability, and reducing NRE costs
Oxfordshire, UK, February 2024: Direct Insight, the UK-based technical systems integrator and reseller of system-on-module (SoM) and other embedded systems, has announced a partnership with German system-on-module (SoM) and Single Board Computer (SBC) maker, MicroSys Electronics GmbH in the UK and Ireland market.
Commented David Pashley, CEO of Direct Insight: “MicroSys sees itself as a system provider; its focus is to help OEMs realize their product designs. We are excited to offer our customers the MicroSys miriac® MPX module technology, which offers all the advantages of SoM-based designs, such as application-ready core technology, faster time-to-market, high design reliability, lower NRE costs, and better-priced carrier boards thanks to less layers.”
miriac® application-ready SoMs are based on NXP® S32G and Layerscape processor technology. They support all processor-integrated features with a comprehensive, perfectly-matching, functionally-validated solution.
Added Pashley: “With support for NXP’s S32G processor family, MicroSys shares our growing focus on automotive, and on safety-certified development, including ISO 26262 and IEC61508.

About MicroSys Electronics
MicroSys Electronics has been designing and developing embedded system solutions since 1975, is an NXP Gold Partner and widely integrates NXP’s S32 Automotive, Layerscape and QorIQ processor technology. Designs based on System-on-Modules (SoMs) are the strengths of this German company, with the portfolio ranging from application-ready SoMs and customer-specific carrier board designs to fully integrated systems. Application areas for these extremely rugged designs with long-term availability are primarily found in markets where safety standards analog to IEC 61508 are required, such as railway technology (EN 50155), aviation (DO-160), and mobile machinery (ISO 13849), as well as manufacturing robots (ISO 10218), control systems (IEC 62061), and drive systems (IEC 61800-5-2). Further application areas can be found in medical technology (60601), and in critical infrastructures, like the nuclear sector (IEC 61513) or the process industry (IEC 61511). MicroSys works closely with its customers in all these industries to ensure that the specific applicable standards are fully met. For more information, visit https://microsys.de/
