Page 5: Chapter 1 Overview
Thank you for choosing the OLinuXino single-board computer from Olimex! This document provides a user’s guide for the Olimex OLinuXino board. As an overview, this chapter gives the scope of this document and lists the board’s features. The differences between the members of the OLinuXino family are mentioned. -
Page 6: The Olinuxino Family
1.2 The OLinuXino family The design of all the iMX233 boards follows the same pattern which makes the transition between different Olimex iMX233 boards easier. However, there are significant differences in the dimensions, the peripherals available and the power options between the different boards. -
Page 7: Target Market And Purpose Of The Board
Linux board for embedding in custom devices. This of course comes at the cost of the lack of some peripherals included in the bigger iMX233 Olimex-made boards. It is generally advice to get one of the other iMX233 boards for research and development and use the NANO for the stage when you have to implement the product. -
Page 8: Chapter 2 Setting Up The Olinuxino Board
Avoid touching the component pins or any other metallic element. 2.2 Requirements In order to set up the iMX233-OLinuXino-NANO optimally one or more additional items may be used. They might be generally placed in three categories: Required – items that are needed in order to achieve minimum functionality;... -
