Processor and memory subsystem[edit | edit source]
The heart of MITO 8M Mini/Nano module is composed by the following components:
- i.MX8M Mini SoC application processor
- Power supply unit
- LPDDR4 memory bank
- eMMC or NAND flash banks
- Connectors:
- 1 x 204 pins SO-DIMM edge connector with interfaces signals
- partially compatible with AXEL Lite SOM
- 1 x 204 pins SO-DIMM edge connector with interfaces signals
This chapter shortly describes the main MITO 8M Mini/Nano components.

| Bootable | Yes |
Memory map[edit | edit source]
For detailed information, please refer to chapter 2 “Memory Maps” of the i.MX8M Mini Applications Processor Reference Manual
Power supply unit[edit | edit source]
MITO 8M Mini embeds all the elements required for powering the unit, therefore power sequencing is self-contained and simplified. Nevertheless, power must be provided from carrier board, and therefore users should be aware of the ranges power supply can assume as well as all other parameters.
