i.MX51 Evaluation Kit  Favorite

Freescale delivers the cost-effective i.MX51 evaluation kit, allowing customers to develop, debug and demonstrate their next great product without compromising performance. As part of our new price, performance and personality series, the evaluation kit supports all the features of the device in design to enable developers a complete development platform at a low price point. The i.MX51 EVK has two optional add-on modules; an LCD and an expansion board. Based on a powerful ARM® Cortex™-A8 core, the i.MX51 EVK delivers extreme performance and provides long battery life, helping developers design products that meet today’s demands for energy efficiency. A range of connectivity options makes the i.MX51 EVK suitable for developing many different types of user applications.

The provided Board Support Packages (BSP) for Linux® and Windows® Embedded CE enables rapid prototyping to help speed up the processor selection process and quickly deliver a demo into the hands of the project stakeholders. The i.MX51 EVK includes two SD cards; one pre-loaded with Linux and the other with Windows Embedded CE. Both options support a wide range of automotive, consumer, general embedded and industrial applications.
