Buildroot and Yocto

The Linux BSP "fsimx6-B2020.04" is based on Buildroot, a software for creating root file systems. About 1400 different software packages can be added to the root file system using menu control. The range of functions ranges from simple libraries and utilities to a complete Java environment to complete graphical environments such as Qt, Wayland/Weston or X11, including applications such as an HTML5-capable web browser. In this way, it is very easy to put together a customized Linux system.

As an alternative to Buildroot, there is also a Yocto-based environment. We offer the Linux BSP fsimx6-Y2020.03, which is based on Yocto.

Our standard configuration, which should give a first impression of the functional scope of the module, contains the following features: Busybox, gdb, alsa-utils, gstreamer, fbv, X11R7, matchbox, feh, openssl, openssh, ncurses, can-utils, iproute2, ftpd, httpd, telnet, tftp, and much more

Both BSPs include the source code packages from U-Boot (2018.03), Linux kernel (based on 4.9.88) and Buildroot (2019.05.01) or Yocto (2.4) adapted by F&S. In addition, our cross toolchain is included, some sample applications and all binaries in the standard configuration. And last but not least, detailed documents on the hardware are included as well as the first steps documentation for easy entry.

F&S also offers a virtual machine (based on VirtualBox) with an installed Linux based on the Fedora 27 distribution for free download. All packages necessary to translate our software are already installed. All services (NFS, TFTP) for working with our boards are also installed. Our BSP is unpacked and precompiled in the right directories. With this virtual machine it doesn't matter whether you use Windows or Linux as the host. Simply download the VHD, import it into VirtualBox and development can begin immediately.

Windows Embedded CE 6.0 R3/Compact 7

Windows Embedded CE6.0 R3 or Windows Embedded Compact 7 offers Bootloader, interface drivers and kernel (with e.g. Silverlight, Mediaplayer or IE). Interface drivers for almost every offered interface are ready to use. Hard work with PlatformBuilder is unnecessary, since we already did that. Create your software with Visual Studio .NET in C, C++, C# or VB.NET. Use interfaces like I²C in the same way like a RS232 interface, without having to handle the underlying hardware. Configure the display and other settings with the F&S configuration tool. This is software development at its easiest.

Our FailSafe Flash File System F3S is also available for WCE 6.0 and Compact 7.

Description Hardware

High CPU Performance

The PicoMODA9 is perfectly suited for devices, which need to display high performance graphics and videos. Functions like Multiformat CODEC (MPEG4, H.264, WMV9 and H.264 (1080@30fps) ), as well as 2D, 3D and Direct 3D Mobile are an optimal support for these demands and relieve the CPU significantly. All this leads to a positive effect on fluid displaying and low power consumption.

The NXP i.MX6 Dual-/ Single-Core ARM Cortex-A9 CPU with 1GHz offers the required high CPU performance.

Compact Size and Expandable Temperature Range

The compact size (80x50mm) and the optionally extensible temperature range (-40°C - +85°C) can realize portable devices in rough environments easily.

  

The module comes with up to 4GB DDR3-RAM and up to 1GB Flash (standard is 256MB RAM and 128MB Flash).

Numerous interfaces (Ethernet, 4x Serial, USB Host and Device, CAN, I²C, SPI, Audio, micro SD-Card Slot, Adress-/ Data-Bus, as well as camera interface/ HDMI-DVI) enable a wide range of applications.

All common TFT displays with RGB- and LVDS-interface up to WXGA can be controlled (both display interfaces are available simultaneously).

The PicoMODA9 is supplied with 3.3V.
The module is plugged on the base board of the customer's application via one robust 140 poles plug connector.

Pin Compatible

The pin assignment of the plug is pin compatible to all other PicoMOD boards.
