Important Notice: Before using the Starterkit MBa6ULxL or parts of the schematics of the MBa6ULxL, you must evaluate it and determine if it is suitable for your intended application. You assume all risks and liability associated with such use. TQ-Systems GmbH makes no other warranties including, but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION This User's Manual describes the hardware of the MBa6ULxL, revision 02xx. The MBa6ULxL is designed as a carrier board for the LGA version of the TQMa6ULxL. The illustrations in this User's Manual also refer to the TQMa6ULxL.
Functionality Core of the MBa6ULxL is the TQMa6ULxL, which is based on an NXP i.MX6ULx CPU. In addition to the standard communication interfaces like USB, Ethernet, RS-232, etc. other signals and interfaces are routed to two 20-pin 2.54 mm headers.
C touch screen controller can be addressed via I2C4 on the MBa6ULxL. Table 5 shows the addresses used on the TQMa6ULxL and the MBa6ULxL. The I2C4 bus is also routed to header X22. The following table shows the address assignment of TQMa6ULxL and MBa6ULxL.
Both RTCs are supplied via the LICELL. A lithium battery type CR2032 with very low self-discharge is provided on the MBa6ULxL as a backup supply for both RTCs. The increased current consumption must be considered, if the i.MX6ULx RTC is used.
Communication interfaces 4.2.1 USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Host The MBa6ULxL provides two USB 2.0 Host (double stack USB Type-A) and USB 2.0 Host interfaces at both Mini PCIe connectors. Illustration 7: Block diagram USB Host interfaces The following tables show the pinout of the connectors used.
Display interface The i.MX6ULx provides an Enhanced LCD Interface (eLCDIF), which is routed to X19 on the MBa6ULxL. The eLCDIF consists of 24 data and 5 control signals and supports different video formats like RGB, VSYNC, ITU-R BT.656, or 4:2:2 YCbCr.
4.2.9 Mini PCIe and SIM card socket Two Mini PCIe connectors for full-size Mini PCIe cards (50.95 × 30 mm) are provided on the MBa6ULxL. Every standard Mini PCIe card can be used . USB_H3, USB_H4, and I2C4 are routed to the connectors, see Table 21.
4.3.3 Debug interfaces RS-232 / USB Debug interfaces are available as RS-232 and USB device interface on the MBa6ULxL. In both cases, the UART1 interface of the TQMa6ULxL is used. No software configuration is required. DIP switch S16-1 selects the debug interface, see Table 26.
Page 22 Power supply The MBa6ULxL is supplied with 6.5 to 30 V via X26 or X27. All other voltages are generated on the MBa6ULxL. Additionally, 3.3 V and 5 V are available at headers X22 and X23. The Mini PCIe connectors X24 and X25 are supplied with 1.5 V and 3.3 V.
). The MBa6ULxL provides for 4.3 mm mounting ® holes. The Intel specifications of the NUC form factor were also taken into account. The MBa6ULxL has a maximum height of approximately 22 mm and weighs approximately 94 grams, including CR2032 battery. Illustration 18:...
Protection class IP00 was defined for the MBa6ULxL. There is no protection against foreign objects, touch or humidity. Reliability and service life The MBa6ULxL is maintenance-free. It is designed for a service life of 10 years and also to be insensitive to shock and vibration.
By environmentally friendly processes, production equipment and products, we contribute to the protection of our environment. To be able to reuse the MBa6ULxL, it is produced in such a way, that it can be easily repaired and disassembled. The energy consumption of this subassembly is minimised by suitable measures.
