The main characteristics of the NOVAsom P are:

On Board Peripherals:

•Up to 32GBytes bootable eMMC (Option)

•Up to 1GBytes 32 bit wide DDR

•1 bootable µSD slot up to 32GBytes

•1 Ethernet port @ 10/100 Mbit/sec.

•1 Dual Channel LVDS up to 1920x1080 with PWM brightness control and I2C for touch screen

•1 Full Size HDMI connector with audio and CEC

•1 mPCIe slot with optional SIM bay (the SIM bay is for 3G mPCIe boards)

•1 Integrated RTC with optional external battery connector (the RTC draws up to 50 µA)

•1 USB Host connector

•1 Remote IR input with optional connector

•1 Power led and 1 User Driven led, plus one led driven by the mPCIe board if present

•Standard 2.5mm Power Supply Jack for 6.5Vcc to 18Vcc input, central positive

On Expansion Connectors (J9 and J13):

•1 I2C @ 3.3V

•4 SPI @ 50 MHz maximum, 3 of them with 2 Slave Select and 1 with 1 slave select

•8 GPIO @ 3.3V

•1 Full UART @ 3.3V (TX; RX; RTS; CTS)

•1 PCM AUDIO @ 3.3V

•1 SPDIF OUT

•2 LANE CSI for Camera Sensor (Note 1)

•1 x RS232 (Note 2)

•1 x CAN with optional transceiver (Note 2)

•1 x optional RS485 with transceiver and optional termination (Note 2)

•1 x µSD/eMMC plus 3 GPIO externally powered @ 3.3/1.8V expansion (Note 3)

•1 x TX/RX only UART externally powered @ 3.3/1.8V (Note 3)

•1 x Full UART externally powered @ 3.3/1.8V (TX; RX; RTS; CTS) (Note 3)

•1 x I2C externally powered @ 3.3/1.8V (Note 3)

Note 1: these pins have a dedicated function and cannot be used as GPIO

Note 2: these pins have the appropriate driver

Note 3: these pins are powered externally from a 1.8V or 3.3V source. The 3.3V source can be from the

NOVAsom P shorting the appropriate pin on one of the two expansion connectors (J9), other supplies must

be provided from the expansion board that will utilize them.

All the pins without (Note 1), (Note 2) or (Note 3) can be programmed as GPIO or programmed accordingly

to the functions described in table 6 and table 7 below.

The connectors J9 and J13 are normally not equipped with the pin strip.

The user has so the choice to use a male or female contact type, and to solder the strips on top or bottom

of the NOVAsom P, use partially populated connectors or a mix of them.
