iMX233-OLinuXino-NANO user's manual
1.2 The OLinuXino family
The design of all the iMX233 boards follows the same pattern which makes the transition between
different Olimex iMX233 boards easier.
However, there are significant differences in the dimensions, the peripherals available and the
power options between the different boards.

* 100Mbit Ethernet for the wired network of OLinuXino-MAXI. 150Mbit for the WIFI following
811.02n standard.
** All three boards have the option to work with MOD-WIFI_RTL8188, which is USB WIFI
modem with RTL8188CU chip and can be purchased separately. MOD-WIFI_RTL8188 can be
connected to any of the OLinuXino boards via the USB.
*** OlinuXino-MINI has additional option of having RTL8188CU hardware mounted! If you wish
RTL8188CU embedded in the device you should purchase OLinuXino-MINI-WIFI. Choosing the
embedded WIFI option will leave your USB-HOSTs available for use.
**** There is an easy access to the power pin holes, however. Especially, if you use a breadboard.
