Varisite Pin2Pin Product Families

DART-MX8M-MINI

[Tel-Aviv, Israel, February 20, 2019] Variscite reveals the portfolio of its new i.MX based products that will be presented next week at the Embedded World 2019 exhibition & conference. Variscite is the only NXP partner who was granted early access to all i.MX 8 programs and will present next week a respectable number of new System-on-Modules based on i.MX 8M Mini, i.MX 8QM and i.MX 8X as well as the i.MX 8M that was released in 2018.

Alongside the i.MX 8 platforms, the company will also showcase the VAR-SOM-6UL, its new member to the ‘VAR-SOM pin2pin family’ based on NXP i.MX 6UltraLite / 6ULL / 6ULZ processors.

All demos can be found on hall 4A / 4A-340 at the Embedded World exhibition.

The official launch of the DART-MX8M-MINI

The DART-MX8M-MINI System-on-Module (SoM) will be officially launched at the upcoming Embedded World exhibition. The DART-MX8M-MINI is a miniature SoM based on NXP’s i.MX 8M Mini processor with up to 2GHz Quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 plus 400MHz Cortex-M4 real-time processor. The SoM offers integrated HW engines supporting 1080p video encode and decode, 2D and 3D graphics, HQ audio and a wide range of connectivity options such as Wi-Fi/BT, Ethernet, and USB.

The DART-MX8M-MINI joins Variscite’s ‘DART Pin2Pin Family’ and provides a pin2pin scalable option to Variscite’s DART-MX8M with lower power consumption and higher CPU performance. Later this year the company is expected to launch the DART-MX8M-NANO based on the upcoming NXP i.MX 8M Nano processor for further cost/performance scalability of the ‘DART Pin2Pin Family’.

The VAR-SOM Pin2Pin Family

The company is expanding its ‘VAR-SOM Pin2Pin product Family’ with several new products which will be presented at the Embedded World exhibition: The VAR-SOM-MX8, VAR-SOM-MX8X and VAR-SOM-6UL. The Pin2Pin family offers Variscite’s customers a high level of scalability, extended lifetime availability and reduced development time, cost and risk.
