Yocto Release Y2024.07

For the CPU NXP i.MX8M Plus F&S offers a Yocto based environment. We offer the Linux BSP fsimx8mp-Y2024.07, which is based on Yocto.

Our standard configuration, which is intended to give a first impression of the functionality of the board, includes the following features: Busybox, gdb, alsa-utils, gstreamer, fbv, matchbox, feh, openssl, openssh, ncurses, can-utils, iproute2, ftpd, httpd, telnet, tftp, and many more.

The BSP contains the source code packages of U-Boot (2021.04), Linux kernel (based on 5.15.160) and Yocto (4.0.20 Kirkstone) adapted by F&S. Also included is our cross toolchain, some sample applications, and all binaries in the default configuration. Last but not least, detailed documents on the hardware are included, as well as the First Steps documentation for an easy start.

F&S offer a virtual machine (based on VirtualBox) with an installed Linux based on the distribution Fedora 36 for free download. All packages necessary to compile our software are already installed. Also, all services (NFS, TFTP) for working with our boards are installed. Our BSP is unpacked and precompiled in the correct directories. With this virtual machine it doesn't matter if you use Windows or Linux as host. Simply download the VHD, import it into VirtualBox and development can begin immediately.

The Dual Image Signal Processor allows a max. of 2x MIPI-CSI cameras. Additionally RTC, max. 4x PWM, SPDIF, ESAI, SAI, and SSI are available.

For display control a MIPI-DSI interface with four lanes or 1-2 LVDS interfaces with four lanes, or an LVDS interface with eight lanes or DVI is available.

Touch panels can be connected externally via I2C.

Operating system

The operating system adapted for the PicoCore™MX8MP is Linux. Linux Yocto supports all interfaces so that simple software development can be guaranteed without great hardware knowledge.

FreeRTOS is available to control the real-time kernel M7.

NXP i.MX 8M Plus Linux Development Board

For an easy start of development, we offer an immediately executable PicoCore™MX8MP starter kit including embedded board, baseboard, display, cables, and access to documentation and software. The software includes the Board Support Package and Toolchain for Bare Metal or FreeRTOS.

This is rounded off by our wide range of software services, workshops, and free support via the forum, e-mail, and telephone.
