TQMa8XxS Embedded Cortex®-A53 module

Embedded Cortex®-A35 SMARC 2.0/2.1 module based on i.MX8X with high computing power combined with high-speed interfaces

The SMARC-Module TQMa8XxS is based on the processor ARM® Cortex®-A35 core technology. The integrated high performance graphics supports applications with high display requirements. Full access to all signal pins guarantees a very flexible usage and a cost-efficient project development. For various requirements three CPU variants with a different performance and features are available. With a Dual / Quad-Core ARM Cortex™ A35 core and a clock rate up to 4x 1.2 GHz the module provides a balanced ratio between high performance and power dissipation.
