Toradex i.MX 7 Computer-on-Modules

Toradex i.MX 7 Computer-on-Modules are based on the NXP®/Freescale i.MX 7 embedded System-on-Chip (SoC). The SoC features a single or dual-core Arm® Cortex® A7 processor with an additional ARM Cortex M4 processor. The heterogeneous dual-core system allows for running a second real-time operating system on the M4 core for time/security critical tasks. Designed for extremely low power consumption, the i.MX 7 Computer-on-Modules feature several low-power modes that reduce the consumption in idle and sleep states. The modules target various applications, including medical devices, navigation, industrial automation, HMIs, avionics, POS, data acquisition, robotics, and more.
