Congatec supports new NXP I.MX8 processors

Congatec will be showing its Qseven and Smarc modules that support the new 64-bit NXP i.MX8 processors. The new modules, timed for the production launch of the ARM Cortex A53 / A72-based processor family, will enable OEM customers to implement their first-to-market strategies efficiently: they can start designing the carrier board for their applications now and will be able to leverage application-ready i.MX8-based Congatec modules, from day one of the launch date. The company says no other design strategy

8392 Congatec will be showing its Qseven and Smarc modules that support the new 64-bit 5460 NXP i.MX8 processors.  The new modules, timed for the production launch of the ARM Cortex A53 / A72-based processor family, will enable OEM customers to implement their first-to-market strategies efficiently: they can start designing the carrier board for their applications now and will be able to leverage application-ready i.MX8-based Congatec modules, from day one of the launch date. The company says no other design strategy promises faster time-to-market and higher design security. Customers gain important competitive advantages that they can use to capture crucial market share.


The new Qseven and Smarc modules with NXP i.MX8 real-time processors are of great interest for a wide range of in-vehicle applications. The processors integrate up to four cores and high-performance graphics for up to four independent displays, with low energy consumption. Since the modules are designed for an extended ambient temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, they can also be used in fleet systems for commercial vehicles or in infotainment applications in cabs, buses and trains, as well as all the new electric and autonomous vehicles.
