Open-X 8M Development Kit
Based on the NXP i.MX 8M processor
Intrinsycs Open-X 8M Development Kit is a cost-effective, feature rich, multimedia -focused, exposed board
platform powered by our Open -X 8M SOM (System on Module). It is ideal for evaluation of the Open -X 8M
SOM as well as jump-starting development of streaming video/audio devices, voice control and general human -
machine interface soluonti s.
An HDMI 2.0a video output is provided for ease of use out of the box, and our optional LCD/touchpanel is also
compatible. With a multitude of high performance interconnect oponsti , including two USB3.0 ports, Gigabit
Ethernet, PCIe Gen2, and pre-certified dual -band 2x2 MU-MIMO WLAN, this Dev Kit is ideal for development of a
wide range of embedded and IoT products.
