Abstract:
1. A device configuring method comprising: receiving a computer-on-module (COM) profile and a peripheral module profile, wherein the peripheral module profile identifies a peripheral module type and a signaling protocol associated with a peripheral module and comprises at least one of a device identifier or a driver information for a peripheral module, and wherein the COM profile identifies a chipset and comprises at least one of a central processing unit (CPU) information or an operating system for a COM; determining an input/output (I/O) port configuration that provides a route of electrical communication between the COM and the peripheral module based on the COM profile and the peripheral module profile; establishing a route of electrical signal communication with the COM; establishing a route of electrical signal communication with the peripheral module; and implementing the signaling protocol identified in the peripheral module profile to establish the route of electrical signal communication between the COM and the peripheral module using the I/O port configuration.
