SBC-iMX6UL - NXP i.MX6 UltraLite Single Board Computer

  • NXP i.MX6 UltraLite processor, 528MHz
  • Up-to 1GB DDR3 and 32GB on-board eMMC
  • DVI-D, LVDS, LCD at up to 1366 x 768 resolution
  • Dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.1 BLE

Industrial Single Board Computer

SBC-iMX6UL is a single board computer designed for industrial and embedded applications. It is based on the Freescale i.MX6 UltraLite System-on-Chip. SBC-iMX6UL is implemented with the CL-SOM-iMX6UL System-on-Module providing most of the functions, and SB-SOM-iMX6UL carrier board providing additional peripheral functions and connectors.

Extensive connectivity

Featuring a rich array of networking interfaces with Ethernet, dual-band 802.11a/b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.1, SBC-iMX6UL is an excellent solution for networking, industrial communications and IoT applications.

Ready-to-run software packages

SBC-iMX6UL is provided with comprehensive documentation and full ready-to-run SW packages for the Linux operating system.

  • The "SB option" column specifies the SB-SOM-iMX6UL carrier board P/N code required for a particular feature. The "CM option" column specifies the CL-SOM-iMX6UL P/N code required for a particular feature. SBC-iMX6UL feature-set is a combination of features provided by the attached CL-SOM-iMX6UL and the features implemented on the SB-SOM-iMX6UL. For a particular feature to be present, both the CM and SB options of that feature must be implemented.
  • "+" means that the feature is always available, regardless of P/N code.
