Introduction

AXEL LITE is the new top-class Single - Dual - Quad Core ARM Cortex-
A9 CPU module by DAVE Embedded
Systems, based on the recent NXP i.MX6
application processor. Thanks to AXEL
LITE, customers have the chance to save
time and resources by using a compact
solution that permits to reach scalable
performances that perfectly fits the
application requirements avoiding
complexities on the carrier board. The use
of this processor enables extensive
system-level differentiation of new
applications in many industry fields, where
high-performance and extremely compact
form factor (67,5 mm x 43 mm) are key
factors. Smarter system designs are made possible, following the trends

processing system, designers are able to share the application through
the multi-core platform and/or to divide the task on different cores in
order to match with specific application requirements (thanks to AMP is
possible to create application where RTOS and Linux works together on
different cores). AXEL LITE is designed in order to keep full compatibility

products.
AXEL LITE enables
designers to create smart
products suitable for harsh
mechanical and thermal
environments, allowing the
development of high
