The requirements for cards to be used in AdvancedTCA crates, are called [[Advanced Mezzanine Card]]s (AMCs) and are specified independently in their own standard.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.picmg.org/openstandards/advanced-mezzanine-card/|title=PICMG &#124; Advanced MC®}}</ref>
===MicroTCA===
[[MicroTCA]] is an open, modular standard, based upon [[Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture|AdvancedTCA]], but with a smaller form factor.
Initially developed for applications in telecommunications, it has since outgrown its initial purpose by developing modules for military, aerospace and scientific use.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.picmg.org/openstandards/microtca/|title=PICMG &#124; MicroTCA}}</ref>
As AdvancedTCA, it uses [[Advanced Mezzanine Card|AMCs]], which makes cards interchangeable between those two.
