Introduction
SBC-C61 is a Single Board Computer in 3.5
”
form factor (which is 146 x 102mm) based on embedded NXP i.MX 8M Mini Applications Processors, featuring ARM
®
Cortex
®
-A53 processors, Single-, Dual- or Quad- Core + general purpose Cortex
®
-M4 processor, with frequencies up to 1.8GHz, which are ideal for applications
requiring multimedia capabilities.
Graphics features of the board are managed directly by NXP i.MX8M Mini processor, which integrate a GC320 2D Acceleratore and a GCNanoUltra 3D accelerator,
supporting OpenGL
®
ES 2.0 and Open VG 1.1.
HW video decoding of the most common coding standard (i.e., H.265, H.264, VP9, VP8, and others) is supported. Also H.264, VP8 encoding is supported.
The board is completed with up to 4GB LPDDR4-3200 32-bit bus memory directly soldered on board and one eMMC 5.1 Flash Drive with up to 64GB of capacity.
Mass storage capabilities are completed by a microSD Card slot.
The board can support 24 bit Single/Dual Channel LVDS interface. As a factory alternative, one eDP interface is available.
The processor offers an RGMII interface which, through a dedicated TI DP83867 Ethernet Transceiver, allows the implementation of a Gigabit Ethernet interface.
Another additional GbE interface (optional) is possible using an Intel
®
I210 Gigabit Ethernet controller, managed through the processor
’
s PCI-e interface.
The networking capabilities of this module are extended by an optional WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac + BT 5.0 NGFF module soldered on-board.
An LTE Cat4 module, Quectel EG-25, with dedicated micro-SIM slot is also available as a factory option
The SBC-C61 board offers two USB 2.0 standard Type-A connectors, an internal header with two additional USB 2.0 Host ports and an USB 2.0 port on micro-AB
connector (this interface is shared with the optional modem).
The audio functionalities of this board are represented by an amplified mono Speaker con 2 x PDM digital Mic In connectors.
Three internal connectors complete the functionalities of this board. On these connectors, managed as factory options, it is possible to found up to 2x RS-232 or
RS-485 or CAN ports, GPIOS, SPI interface
The board is available both in commercial and in industrial temperature range.
