하이라이트
Equipped with NXP i.MX 7S and NXP i.MX 7D SoCs, the Arm Cortex-A7 cores are clocked at up to 1GHz, making it an ideal choice for powerful yet efficient applications.
The heterogeneous multicore architecture allows the offloading of critical hard real-time tasks to the Cortex-M4 for extremely low latency. Toradex provides tooling and FreeRTOS to simplify development. You can also use the asymmetric multicore architecture for a connected low power mode.
The NXP i.MX 7 SoC is a power-efficient processor. In addition, the Heterogeneous Multicore Processing (HMP) provided by the Cortex-M4 allows for a low-power mode where the Cortex-A7 is shutdown to greatly reduce the power consumption.
The SoM is available with a tightly integrated Torizon Cloud (formerly Torizon Platform) accelerating the development and maintaining your products. Some key features include highly secure and reliable remote updates, fleet monitoring and remote access.
Carrier boards designed for the Colibri iMX7 are not just compatible between the three Colibri iMX7 modules—in fact, they are compatible with the complete Colibri family, including the NXP i.MX 8X, i.MX 6ULL, i.MX 6 and NVIDIA Tegra-based modules. This gives you unmatched flexibility and easy upgradability. Currently, there are eight different modules with over 20 variations available. To make carrier board design as easy as possible, we provide the Toradex Pinout Designer Tool.
운영 체제
Toradex offers free support and maintenance for Embedded Linux and Windows CE on the Colibri iMX7 SoMs. This allows system designers to focus on the application instead of focusing on the OS and low-level device drivers. Other OS such as Android are supported by our partners.
Torizon is a ready-to-use Linux-based software platform ideal for use in areas like industry and medicine, where reliability is critical. It is a developer-friendly ecosystem that simplifies the process of developing and maintaining embedded software.
Toradex develops and maintains a Yocto Project-compatible, production-quality embedded Linux BSP in-house.
Windows Embedded Compact 7 and 2013 is supported on Colibri iMX7. The development and maintenance is carried out in-house by Toradex. WEC allows you to use Microsoft .Net Compact Framework and Visual Studio.
Toradex enables NXP’s FreeRTOS on Colibri iMX7. FreeRTOS is a real-time OS that runs on the Cortex-M4 core in parallel to the main OS.
Android on Colibri iMX7 is supported by our service partner Kynetics. An evaluation BSP is provided free of charge as a binary installer directly on Toradex Easy Installer feeds.
