Overview

The Nitrogen6X-SOM is a low cost, highly integrated System-on-Module based on the Freescale i. mx6 Single/Dual/Quad-Core CPU. The SOM is ideal for customers looking for rapid product development while maintaining the flexibility of a custom design. The Nitrogen6X-SOM has a wide variety of peripheral options including Gigabit Ethernet, multiple display channels, and PCIe. Highlights of the SOM:

Single/Dual/Quad-Core ARM® Cortex A9 processor at 1GHz
1GByte of 64-bit wide DDR3 @ 532MHz – Expandable
Three display ports (PRGB, LVDS, and HDMI)
Two camera ports (1xParallel, 1x MIPI CSI-2)
Multi-stream-capable HD video engine delivering H.264 1080p60 decode,1080p30 encode and 3-D video playback in HD
Triple Play Graphics system consisting of a Quad-shader 3D unit, and a separate 2-D and separate OpenVG Vertex acceleration engine for superior 3D, 2D and user interface acceleration
Serial ATA 2.5 (SATA)
SDIO Interface
PCIe
10/100/Gb Ethernet
2 High speed USB ports (1xHost, 1xOTG)
1xCAN2 port
I2C
General Purpose I/O for Device Control
Industrial Temperature versions available
Small Size (2.25” x 2.5”)

SOM Pin Out

Changes from Rev 1:

Pin 158 is now coming from SD1_CLK
Added configurable RNET option (RN1 and RN2):

Pin #	RN1	RN2
Pin 119	PCIE_CLK1_P	JTAG_TMS
Pin 121	PCIE_CLK1_N	JTAG_TRST
Pin 123	MIPI Reset (GPIO)	JTAG_MOD
Pin 125	Expansion GPIO	JTAG_TDO

The SOM utilizes a 200pin SODIMM edge connector to interface to the carrier board. The part number is TE 1473005-1. SODIMM pin information:
