MINI PROCESSORS FOR EDGE COMPUTING AND MACHINE LEARNING

Mouser Electronics stocks the i.MX 8M Mini applications processor from NXP Semiconductors. It is NXP’s first embedded multi-core heterogeneous applications processor built using advanced 14LPC FinFET process technology, and offers high-performance computing, power efficiency and embedded security for edge node computing, streaming multimedia, voice assistants, human machine interfaces (HMIs) and machine learning applications.

It is optimised for ultra-low power (less than 1W in specific applications), integrating up to four Arm Cortex-A53 cores running at up to 1.8 GHz, plus a 400 MHz Cortex-M4 for low-power real-time processing. It supports 2D and 3D graphics to provide a rich visual HMI experience, features hardware 1080p video acceleration to enable two-way video applications, and offers advanced audio capabilities to enable audio-rich applications.

The pin-compatible processor supports a wide range of general embedded consumer and industrial applications, and includes an extensive selection of high-speed interfaces to enable broader system connectivity and facilitate industrial level qualification. The DRAM controller supports 32-bit/16-bit LPDDR4, DDR4 and DDR3L memory, providing great flexibility for system design.

The i.MX 8M Mini applications processor is supported by the 8MMINILPD4-EVK evaluation kit, consisting of a compact compute module and larger base board. The compute module integrates an i.MX 8M Mini Quad processor, PMIC, LPDDR4 DRAM, eMMC and wireless connectivity via a Murata Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module. The compute module plugs into the base board, enabling the MIPI-DSI and MIPI-CSI connectors, USB 3.0 connector and PCIe high-speed interfaces, among other peripherals.
