About This Item
Overview
Details
The Digi ConnectCore 6 is an ultra-compact and highly integrated system-on-module solution based on the NXP i.MX6 Cortex-A9 processor family.
With processor speeds up to 1.2 GHz and fully pin-compatible single-/dual-/quad-core variants, the ConnectCore 6 offers a truly future-proof platform solution with scalable performance and pre-certified wireless 802.11 a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, including Bluetooth Low Energy, connectivity.
Its low-profile, surface-mount design maximizes integration flexibility and significantly reduces design risk in a highly cost-effective, reliable form factor with optimized heat dissipation capabilities even in the most demanding quad-core system configurations.
The ConnectCore 6 comes with a complete Board Support Package (BSP) for both Linux and Android platforms supporting secure remote management and web services through Digi Remote Manager®.
