Processor features
Expanding the i.MX 6 series, the i.MX 6UltraLite is a high performance, ultraefficient processor family featuring an advanced implementation of a single ARM® Cortex®-A7 core, which operates at speeds up to 528 MHz.
- The single ARM Cortex-A7 core can provide a more cost-effective and more power efficient solution
- Processor delivers hardware-enabled security features that enable secure e-commerce, digital rights management (DRM), information encryption, On-The-Fly DRAM encryption, secure boot and secure software downloads
- Processor supports connections to a variety of interfaces: two high-speed USB on-the-go with PHY, multiple expansion card ports (high-speed MMC/SDIO host and other), two 12-bit ADC modules with up to 10 total input channels, two CAN ports and a variety of other popular interfaces (such as UART, I2C, and I2S serial audio)
(By combining the power-efficient processing capabilities of the ARM Cortex-A9 architecture with bleedingedge 3D and 2D graphics, as well as high-definition video, the i.MX 6 provides a new level of multimedia performance to enable an unbounded next-generation user experience.)

Ka-Ro Secure Boot Services
Addressing security, plagiarism and manipulation issues on embedded devices, Ka-Ro now offers two secure boot services for all TXCOMs based on NXP’s i.MX 6 and i.MX53 processors.
Customers can order either dedicated secure boot-enabled TXCOMs directly from Ka-Ro which come programmed with their secure key.
Alternatively Ka-Ro’s support team assists developers individually and enables them to implement this secure foundation to create trusted devices which will only boot and connect with digitally signed authentic code.
