Evaluation Kit Based on i.MX 8M Quad Applications Processors The i.MX 8M Quad EVK has industry-leading audio and video capabilities for developing high performance and flexible applications. The i.MX 8M Quad EVK provides a platform for rapid HMI AND CONNECTIVITY evaluation of the i.MX 8M Quad, i.MX 8M Dual and i.MX Today, Human Machine Interface (HMI) must respond 8M QuadLite applications processors, utilizing 2 to 4x Arm accurately, and in miliseconds, to touch screen and gesture Cortex -A53 cores and 1x Cortex-M4 core. It offers high inputs. Connectivity is a must, demanding increasingly faster performance with low power, flexible options for memory and and more reliable wired and wireless capabilities, associated high-speed interfaces, as well as industry-leading audio and with security to protect sensitive data and privacy. The i.MX video capabilities. 8M Quad EVK provides capabilities for development of these key functionalities. The board enables HDMI output for simple out-of-the-box bring up. It has LPDDR4, eMMC, QSPI and SDMicro memory TARGET APPLICATIONS options, 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, USB 3.0 connectors Human Machine Interface (HMI) and PCIe high-speed interfaces ideal for connected, high Building Automation performance embedded applications. For audio, video and HMI evaluations, it brings HDMI 2.0a Type-A and MIPI-DSI Smart Homes connectors, as well as 32-bit audio samples with up to 768 Imaging and Scanning kHz sampling rate, an audio interface expansion connector Machine Vision and a headphone 3.5 mm audio jack. Video Streaming VIDEO AND GRAPHICS Audio Streaming The EVK integrated video and graphics capabilities decodes most relevant video formats as h.264, h.265 and VP9, and renders up to 4Kp60 video resolution with High Dynamic Range (HDR), delivering more vibrant colors, contrast and brightness. Applications like video streaming and digital signage, among others, are evolving to these higher standards. i.MX 8M QUAD EVK CONTENTS i.MX 8M Quad EVK i.MX 8M Quad EVK board Power supply Quick Start Guide USB 3.0 Type C to Type A USB 2.0 Type A to Type Micro SOFTWARE AND TOOLS The i.MX 8M Quad EVK comes pre-installed with a boot image flashed on one eMMC memory.
