VAR-SOM-MX8M-NANO
Cost-optimized System on Module
Based on NXP’s i.MX 8M Nano with up to 1.5GHz Quad-
core ARM Cortex-A53 plus 650MHz Cortex-M7 real-time
processor. The SoM offers an ideal solution for cost-
sensitive designs that require power-eciency and high-
performance graphics as well as for general-purpose
applications.
The VAR-SOM-MX8M-NANO is a member of the
VAR-SOM Pin2Pin product family. This impressive
product family stretches across a wide range of
performance levels including the i.MX6UL/6ULL/6ULZ,
i.MX 6, i.MX 8X, i.MX 8M-Mini, i.MX 8M-Nano up to
the i.MX 8QuadMax, providing Variscite’s customers
with exibility, extended lifetime, as well as reduced
development time, cost, and risk.
This popular platform supports a variety of interfaces
including certied single-band 802.11b/g/n as well as
dual-band 802.11ac/a/b/g/n option, 4.2 BT/BLE, Gigabit
Ethernet, CAN/CAN-FD, USB2.0 and LVDS.
The Symphony carrier board complements an attractive
full reference kit of the VAR-SOM-MX8M-NANO, used by
Variscite’s customers for evaluation, development and
mass production
