Digi International announced the ConnectCore for i.MX 6UL, a new embedded module platform delivering a connected system-on-module (SOM) with integrated dual-band 802.11ac wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.1 connectivity in a low-profile, surface-mount form factor slightly larger than a postage stamp.
Built on the new NXP i.MX 6UltraLite applications processor, the module is designed as an intelligent, low-power embedded platform for highly cost-effective and reliable integration into connected devices without the traditional hardware or software design risk, allowing device manufacturers to focus solely on their core competency.
The module’s innovative and patent-pending Digi SMTplus surface mount form factor (29 x 29 x 3,75 mm) enables device manufacturers to optimise product designs by lowering cost and improving capabilities without compromising design flexibility. By providing two integration options (fully featured LGA, and simplified castellated edge vias) in one common form factor, it offers a scalable platform solution that addresses a wide range of product feature requirements, unit cost targets, and levels of design expertise.
Digi’s complete Linux board support package (BSP) plus software support deliver integrated, tested, regular software maintenance based on current, stable community releases. As part of the Linux software support, the new Digi TrustFence device security framework offers the critical features required to protect today’s connected devices and applications. TrustFence implements device security-relevant features such as secure connections, authenticated boot, encrypted data storage, access-controlled ports, secure software updates, and seamless integration of the dedicated on-module secure element (SE).
The ConnectCore 6UL SOM platform deploys an i.MX 6UltraLite applications processor (Cortex-A7 at up to 696 MHz) and PF3000 power management IC from NXP Semiconductors. It boasts up to 2 GB of reliable SLC NAND Flash memory, and up to 1 GB of DDR3, in addition to ultra-low power modes, watchdog, and many other features.
