How to Buy

Digi ConnectCore® 8M Nano, based on the NXP® i.MX 8M Nano application processor, is an integrated system-on-module (SOM) platform. The Nano is designed for a wide range of industrial, medical, agricultural and transportation applications, including Internet of Things (IoT), human-machine interface (HMI), equipment monitoring, audio/voice, edge computing and machine learning (e.g. anomaly detection).

Digi ConnectCore 8M Nano features up to 4x power-efficient Arm® Cortex®-A53 cores and 1x Cortex-M7 core, which allow it to minimize power consumption while maintaining a high standard of performance. This SOM is designed for industrial reliability and the 10+ year product lifecycles of embedded devices. It helps OEMs lower their R&D and development costs and realize a lower total cost of ownership by leveraging pre-certified wireless connectivity, remote management, cloud integration and a complete Linux® software platform based on Yocto Project®. In addition, built in Digi TrustFence® enables OEM developers to integrate critical security and data privacy capabilities into their products.
