SoM provides low-power processing for embedded applications

Mouser now stocks the Nitrogen8ULP SoM from Ezurio. Combined with the Ezurio 8ULP carrier board, the SoM serves as an SBC that greatly accelerates time to market. The ultra-low-power SoM is a versatile embedded computing solution for energy meters and storage, smart building and smart city applications, medical devices, and commercial food and beverage equipment.

The SoM is powered by NXP Semiconductors' i.MX 8ULP processors featuring dual Arm Cortex-A35 cores and an Arm Cortex-M33. This architecture enables the module to run Linux on the Cortex-A35 cores and FreeRTOS on the Cortex-M33 core.

The SoM includes a Fusion DSP for low-power audio processing, a HiFi4 DSP for advanced audio and machine learning tasks, and extra coprocessors for efficient DSP and cryptographic functionalities. The module supports a range of high-speed connectivity options and provides interfaces for data, network, display, and camera. Also, the SoM offers 20 different power modes to optimise energy consumption. The SoM features a compact form factor of 51mm × 32mm and supports a wide temperature range of -40C to 85C. With a more than ten-year product life cycle, the SoM is a reliable option for long-term deployments.
