【i.MX Application Processor Evaluation Boards】

The i.MX series constitutes NXP's family of application processors designed for high-performance computing and multimedia processing. Its evaluation boards typically feature powerful Arm Cortex-A cores, alongside integrated rich audio-video interfaces and high-speed connectivity capabilities, making them an ideal starting point for developing smart gateways, human-machine interfaces, and multimedia devices.

NXP offers a comprehensive range of i.MX evaluation boards spanning entry-level to high-end, establishing clear product depth to meet diverse computational power and power consumption requirements across different scenarios:

High-Performance Choice: i.MX 8M Quad Evaluation Board: This board features up to four 1.5GHz Cortex-A53 cores and one 266MHz Cortex-M4 core, enabling seamless collaboration between application processing and real-time control. It integrates 4GB LPDDR4 memory, HDMI 2.0a video output, MIPI-CSI/DSI camera and display interfaces, and supports high-speed interfaces including PCIe, USB 3.0, and Gigabit Ethernet, providing a robust hardware foundation for demanding applications such as 4K media processing and digital signage.

A benchmark in energy efficiency and integration: the i.MX 8ULP Evaluation Board (EVK9) is specifically engineered for power-sensitive devices. It combines dual-core Cortex-A35 and Cortex-M33 processors with two dedicated DSPs (HiFi 4 and Fusion). This heterogeneous architecture intelligently assigns tasks to the most suitable core, such as utilising DSPs for audio algorithms to achieve voice wake-up with ultimate energy efficiency. The board also integrates a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module and NXP's proprietary EdgeLock® secure region, delivering a turnkey solution combining performance, connectivity, and security for battery-powered smart home and wearable devices.

Classic Value Choice: i.MX 6 UltraLite Evaluation Board: As a enduring entry-level Linux platform, it employs a single-core 696MHz Cortex-A7 processor. While not matching the performance of newer generations, its strengths lie in exceptionally low cost and a long-established software ecosystem. With onboard 256MB QSPI flash memory, Ethernet, CAN bus, and Arduino-compatible interfaces, it is ideally suited for applications requiring rich connectivity and strict cost control, such as industrial HMIs and network protocol converters.

【Automotive MCU Evaluation Board】

Automotive electronics development imposes near-rigorous demands on functional safety, reliability, and long-term supply assurance. NXP's automotive MCU evaluation board centres on compliance with automotive standards like ISO 26262, establishing a secure and trustworthy verification environment for developers.

The S32K3 series represents NXP's flagship automotive general-purpose microcontrollers, with its evaluation boards becoming the standard for prototyping applications such as body control, zone controllers, and battery management.

S32K312MINI-EVB: This cost-effective entry-level automotive evaluation board is based on the Arm Cortex-M7 core. Its standout feature is full compatibility with the Arduino UNO pin layout, enabling plug-and-play integration with a vast ecosystem of expansion boards and greatly facilitating functional prototype validation. It incorporates an ASIL D-compliant functional safety system core chip (FS26) alongside high-speed CAN and LIN transceivers, embedding safety-critical capabilities from the prototype stage.
