Key Benefits
• Explore the many connectivity options with
the i.MX25 applications processor—display,
touchscreen, USB, SDIO, Ethernet, CAN,
audio and others
• Power management offers a variety of
different power saving modes, giving
the system developer the ability to make
trade-offs between power savings during
system idle state and the needed system

Software and hardware engineers are
provided with the key resources to test their
developed code. They can also download
this code to the target PDK to test and
validate their software and run and evaluate
performance metrics. The debug board
provides multiple test points to allow the
engineer to take power measurements
that will help to understand system power
consumption and areas for code optimization.
The ability to have all communications ports
working (serial, USB, Ethernet) and to debug
over JTAG and Ethernet is essential for
product development. The debug board is
common across all i.MX PDKs.
