The VT-SBC-SMARC-IMX952 Computer-on-Module (CoM) is built around the NXP i.MX952 family processor to deliver robust performance in a compact SMARC 2.1 form factor. The module integrates a quad/dual-core ARM Cortex-A55 CPU, a high-performance ARM Cortex-M7 real-time MCU, and a lower-power ARM Cortex-M33 safety MCU. It further enhances processing capabilities with a dedicated elQ® Neutron NPU and a high-performance ARM Mali GPU, enabling efficient handling of complex computational workloads.
The VT-SBC-SMARC-IMX952 delivers up to 4K 30P H.264 video encoding and 4K 60P H.265/H.264 video decoding capabilities. It supports up to 2 simultaneous displays on dual 4-lane or single 8-lane LVDS delivering up to 1080p@60Hz resolution, and a MIPI DSI interface with 4K@30Hz/ 3840 × 1440@60Hz output resolution. These features make it particularly suitable for industrial vision and display applications.
For connectivity, the module offers two Ethernet ports, including one 1 GbE port and one 2.5 GbE port with TSN support. A Wi-Fi and Bluetooth combo module is available for wireless connectivity. In addition, extensive I/O signals are available for flexible expansion, including USB 2.0, PCIe 3.0, CAN FD, UART, and I2C.
Target use cases include in-cabin sensing, industrial human-machine interfaces (HMI), edge AI vision, factory automation, and smart gateways, where reliable edge computing, multi-display output and real-time control are required. As the module maintains full compatibility with the i.MX 95 family processors, it significantly reduces customers' time-to-market for new product development.
