Price: 1.00 USD
Availability: InStock

The VAR-SMARC-MX937 is a SMARC-compliant System on Module / Computer on Module powered by the NXP i.MX 937 SoC, bringing AI/ML acceleration and advanced multimedia capabilities to cost-sensitive embedded designs.

The VAR-SMARC-MX937 features 4 Arm Cortex®-A55 cores running at 1.4 GHz, complemented by dedicated real-time processing with a 667 MHz Arm Cortex-M7 and a 250 MHz Arm Cortex-M33. The energy-flex architecture enables efficient processing across diverse workloads.

The module provides a versatile combination of multimedia, security, and connectivity capabilities. It supports certified dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax/ac/a/b/g/n), with 802.15.4 and Bluetooth/BLE available as options, alongside two GbE interfaces with TSN. The feature set also covers an NPU, 2D/3D graphics acceleration, 1080p60 video encode/decode, display interfaces, MIPI-CSI camera connectivity, PCIe Gen 3.0, USB, CAN-FD, advanced hardware security, and operation across industrial temperature grades.

The VAR-SMARC-MX937 is part of Variscite's VAR-SMARC Pin2Pin product family, offering a flexible upgrade path across different processing levels and application requirements.

* The Pin2Pin compatibility depends on pinmux options; please verify the detailed pinout table in the related SoM to confirm compatibility is maintained in your specific design.

** VAR-SMARC-MX937 is currently under development. The specifications provided here are preliminary and subject to change without notice.
