In recent years, with the evolution of AIOT technology and the rapid development of industry 4.0, strong performance, cost leadership, long leading delivery cycle of embedded board has become a common demand for the development of these two types of equipment hardware.

iMX8M series core board and development board, i.MX 8M Mini series chips are now available. OKMX8MM-C board offers a wide range of audio interfaces, including I2S, AC97, TDM, PDM and SPDIF. A wide range of peripheral interfaces are available, such as MIPI-CSI, MIPI-DSI, USB, PCIe, UART, eCSPI, IIC and Gigabit Ethernet, while System-on-Module is cost-effective in bulk and has a stable lead time of up to 10 years.

Let's take a look at what a cost-effective development platform looks like:

First, high-performance low-power "core"

NXP's i.MX 8M Mini series processor is NXP's new embedded multicore application processor built with advanced 14LPC FinFET process technology to deliver faster speeds and higher power efficiency. Supported by commercial and industrial certifications and NXP's 10-year supply program, it can be used in a wide range of general industrial and IoT applications.
