RIoTboard - Revolutionising the Internet of Things

The RIoTboard is an open source evaluation platform making waves in Android Development Kit Space. The board is ideal for Android and Linux development and is based on the NXP i.MX 6Solo processor; using the ARM Cortex-A9 architecture.

It features a high processing performance/low-power consumption processor with a broad range of peripherals and display capabilities, making it perfectly suited as a hub for the Internet of Things.

The RIoTboard is an open source platform based on an ARM Cortex-A9 processor. The RIoTboard is an evaluation platform featuring the powerful i.MX 6Solo, a multimedia application processor with ARM Cortex-A9 core at 1 GHz from NXP. The platform helps evaluate the rich set of peripherals and includes a 10/100/Gb Ethernet port, HDMI v1.4, LVDS, analog headphone/microphone, uSD and SD card interface, USB, serial port, JTAG, camera interface, GPIO boot configuration interface, and expansion port.

The i.MX 6Solo processor represents NXP’s latest achievement in integrated multimedia applications processors, which are part of a growing family of multimedia-focused products that offer high performance processing and are optimised for lowest power consumption.

The processor features NXP’s advanced implementation of the single ARM™ Cortex-A9 core, which operates at speeds up to 1 GHz. It includes 2D and 3D graphics processors, 3D 1080p video processing, and integrated power management.
The processor provides a 32/64-bit DDR3/LVDDR3-800 memory interface and a number of other interfaces for connecting peripherals, such as WLAN, Bluetooth™, GPS, hard drive, displays and camera sensors.
