i.MX8M Mini Advantages

Processing Power

The i.MX8M Mini SOM based on NXP’s robust i.MX8M Mini Arm Cortex A53 processor offers a range of features tailor made for embedded Artificial Intelligence and IoT. With AI Acceleration and a range of connectivity features – SOM i.MX8M Mini is perfect for Edge AI, IoT and next generation artificial intelligence applications.

AI Acceleration

i.MX8M Mini SOM is ready to fuel the next generation of Artificial Intelligence applications – harnessing a powerful deep learning CNN AI acceleration microprocessor. The 9 x 9mm accelerator, based on Matrix Processing Engine architecture, offers multi-dimensional processing for extremely high speeds at very low power (24 TOPs/Watt).

Tiny & Scalable

At only 47 x 30mm i.MX8M Mini SOM is a complete powerhouse with a tiny footprint, making it the perfect building block for embedded applications of all sizes. With SolidRun’s design approach of mix-and-match, you can pick up the right SOM configuration for each development stage and offer a range of deployment options.

The i.MX 8M Mini SOM is “coming soon” starting at $56. More information may be found on SolidRun’s i.MX 8M Mini SOM product page.
