Processor and memory subsystem[edit source]
The heart of {{{nome-som}}} module is composed by the following components:
- TBD: SOC name SoC application processor
- Power supply unit
- DDR memory banks
- NOR and NAND flash banks
- TBD: SOM connector type connector with interfaces signals
This chapter shortly describes the main Axel Lite components.

RAM memory bank[edit source]
DDR3 SDRAM memory bank is composed by 4x 16-bit width chips resulting in a 64-bit combined width bank. The following table reports the SDRAM specifications:
CPU connection | Multi-mode DDR controller (MMDC) |
Size min | 512 MB |
Size max | 4 GB |
Width | 64 bit |
Speed | 533 MHz |
NOR flash bank[edit source]
NOR flash is a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) device. This device is connected to the eCSPI channel 5 and by default it acts as boot memory. The following table reports the NOR flash specifications:
CPU connection | eCSPI channel 5 |
Size min | 8 MB |
Size max | 64 MB |
Chip select | ECSPI5_SS0 |
Bootable | Yes |
NAND flash bank[edit source]
On board main storage memory is a 8-bit wide NAND flash connected to the CPU's Raw NAND flash controller. Optionally, it can act as boot peripheral. The following table reports the NAND flash specifications:
CPU connection | Raw NAND flash controller |
Page size | 512 byte, 2 kbyte or 4 kbyte |
Size min | 128 MB |
Size max | 2 GB |
Width | 8 bit |
Chip select | NANDF_CS0 |
Bootable | Yes |
eMMC flash bank[edit source]
CPU connection | SDIO |
Page size | xxxxxx |
Size min | xxx MB |
Size max | xxx GB |
Width | xx bit |
SDHC | |
Bootable | Yes |
Memory map[edit source]
For detailed information, please refer to chapter 2 “Memory Maps” of the i.MX Applications Processor Reference Manual.
Power supply unit[edit source]
{{{nome-som}}} 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.
