COM Enlists NXP i.MX6 UL Processor

Sampling now, Technologic Systems’ TS-4100 computer on module (COM) is the company’s first COM to feature the NXP i.MX 6 UltraLite processor. It also features a single ARM Cortex A7 core, operating at speeds up to 695 MHz. The NXP i.MX 6UL processors offer scalable performance and multimedia support, along with low power consumption. Typical power consumption is 300 mW.

 

TS-4100 specs and features include:

  • Processor — NXP i.MX 6UL (ARM Cortex-A7 @ 695MHz)
  • Memory — 4GB MLC eMMC which can be configured to a more robust 2GB SLC eMMC
  • RAM — Up to 1GB
  • Storage — MicroSD slot supporting Ultra High-Speed bus interface
  • Wireless — 802.11 b/g/n; Bluetooth BLE
  • Networking — 2x 10/100 Ethernet ports available on CoM interface
  • Parallel LCD
  • I2S Audio
  • 2x USB OTG Ports
  • SPI Bus
  • I2C Bus
  • RS232 for Linux console
  • 2x RS232
  • Accelerometer/Gyroscope
  • 16x Header Pins (5X DIO, 1x SPI, 1X I2C)
  • 46x Digital I/O
  • 8x PWM Channel
  • FPGA includes integrated ZPU, a 32-bit CPU architecture for offloading real-time tasks
  • CPU can access ZPU memory allowing for reprogramming of the firmware on the fly as well as bi-directional communication.
  • Other features — Watchdog timer
  • 5V input Power — via USB or via Baseboard
  • Typical Power Consumption 0.30 W
  • Fanless Temperature Range -40°C to 85°C
  • Dimensions: 75 mm x 55 mm
