Launch of NXP i.MX 8M Mini/Nano Micro Qseven Powered System on Module

iWave Systems, a leader in embedded systems and solutions, will be launching a new System on Module based on NXP® i.MX 8M Mini/Nano CPU in µQseven form factor and it will be the new addition to iWave’s i.MX 8 SOM portfolio.

The µQseven V2.1 is a versatile small form factor computer Module definition, targeting application that require low power, low costs, high performance and is an ideal solution for space constrained solutions. The µQseven System on Module with on-board Wi-Fi & BLE 5.0 Connectivity along with various interfaces, LINUX and Android BSP powers innovation & drastically reduces time to market for organisations across sectors.

i.MX 8M Mini/Nano µQseven SOM

The i.MX 8M Mini/Nano µQseven System On Module is aimed to offer applications such as low power embedded and edge computing, Ultra-compact and cost-effective industrial and IoT applications, Equipment monitoring, Digital Signage, Industrial HMI, Home Automation, Audio/Video Streaming devices, General Embedded applications and many more. The Modules are used as building blocks for portable and stationary embedded systems.

The core CPU support circuits, including DRAM, boot flash, power sequencing, CPU power supplies, GBE, CAN, LVDS/HDMI display transmitter and Wi-Fi & Bluetooth are concentrated on the Module. The Modules are used with application specific Carrier Boards that implement other features such as audio CODECs, SPI flash, USB Connector and RG45 Jack etc. The modular approach allows scalability, fast time to market and upgradability while still maintaining low costs, low power and small physical size. The µQseven SOM also features LPDDR4, eMMC and Ethernet PHY. The Module PCB has 230 edge fingers that mate with a low profile 230 pin 0.5mm pitch right angle MXM-2 connector.

i.MX 8M Mini/Nano µQseven SOM Unique Features:

• Gigabit Ethernet PHY
• RTC Controller
• 802.11ac Wi-Fi + BLE 5.0 Module
• On-SOM MIPI CSI Connector
