MSC OSM-MF-IMX8MINI

NXP™ i.MX 8M Mini ARM® Cortex™-A53

The MSC OSM-MF-IMX8MINI is based on the new OSM 1.1 standard (Size-M) “Medium” for completely machine processible low-cost embedded computer modules during soldering, assembly and testing.

Highly scalable and equipped with i.MX 8M Mini Application Processors, manufactured by NXP using 14nm FinFET process technology. The module integrates single-, dualand quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processors with up to 1.8 GHz, an ARM Cortex-M4 real-time processor and GC NanoUltra multimedia 2D/3D graphics processing unit (GPU). The thermal design power (TDP) ranges from 2 W to 5 W.

MSC OSM-MF-IMX8MINI provides fast and low power LPDDR4 memory technology, combined with up to 256GB eMMC Flash memory. Various interfaces for embedded applications such as Gigabit Ethernet (RGMII), USB 2.0, 1x PCIe x1 Gen.2, MIPI-DSI and MIPI CSI-2 (4-lane) for connecting a camera are available.

The module is compliant with the new OSM 1.1 standard (OSM-MF). For evaluation and design-in of the new OSM-MF-IMX8MINI module, MSC provides a development platform and a starter kit. A Yocto based Linux Board Support Package is available (Android support on request).
