MaaXBoard RT

MaaXBoard RT is a dual-purpose SBC board based on NXP’s i.MX RT1176 processor. Optimized for use as low-cost development board and to embed in OEM products, it provides advanced security, high-performance low-latency real-time operation, with a versatile set of peripheral interfaces ideal for implementation of eg. industrial automation and power-efficient audio/visual AI-enabled applications. i.MX RT1170 series cross-over processors are based on Arm ® Cortex ®-M7 and Cortex-M4 cores for real-time industrial performance and microcontroller usability at a cost-effective price.

Software enablement includes a comprehensive NXP RT1170 SDK that accelerates application development with drivers, middleware, code snippets and FreeRTOS based examples (AzureRTOS support will follow soon). Out-of-box Avnet example reference designs are also provided to jump-start development.

Hardware components include SDRAM and HyperFlash high-speed 256 Mb memories, two Ethernet ports, USB 2.0 host and device ports, MIPI-DSI display interface and MIPI-CSI camera interface, Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.1 wireless, an audio subsystem that supports Bluetooth PCM audio, onboard PDM microphones (4) plus amplified stereo audio jack output. Expansion 40 pin (Pi HAT-compatible) and 20 pin headers pin-out peripheral interfaces such as UART, SPI, I2C, CAN bus and GPIO for further system expansion, making this versatile platform ideal for prototyping and deployment of realtime AI and industrial applications.

MaaXBoard RT also has advanced security features to protect your application. (eg. Crypto engine, key protection, random number generation, secure storage, bus encryption, tamper protection, secure boot and more) to secure mission critical applications (eg. electrical grid control and medical applications) MaaXBoard RT ships with a quick start guide to ensure that hardware and software application development can commence efficiently. The user is responsible for providing an SWD/JTAG debug probe (inexpensive NXP MCU-LINK or equivalent) as well as a suitable 5V/3A USB power adapter with USB-C connector.
