Dear Armbian community,

 

we are looking for a low-power SBC with (deep sleep) / poweroff features for IoT applications.

Arduino or any other MCU board are not suitable for doing our use cases, so we are investigating the use of an low-power SBC.

 

i.MX6ULL (https://www.seeedstudio.com/NPi-i-MX6ULL-Dev-Board-Industrial-Grade-Linux-SBC-eMMC-Version-p-4221.html)

has an integrated PMU with a lot of different low-power modes.

Like SNVS mode, where only the power for the SNVS domain remain on. In this mode, only the RTC and tamper detection logic is still active

 

This board is quietly new is there any possibility that this board can be supported by the Armbian community.

 

Thankyou in advance.

@Nielo if you are willing to put in the work, https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/sources/families/imx6.conf

 

I would guess there are a lot of similarities?  It looks like a neat board, but I doubt the community of devs (~10 people) will have time/interest.  I think it's neat, but I have no time to maintain something like that.

By the way, I searched the forum for: MX6ULL  and came across this:  https://www.hackster.io/news/the-voltastream-zero-a-raspberry-pi-zero-lookalike-for-digital-audio-c5e740a2cbc9

A nice project with Github repo

Thanks for pointing out the voltastream board, will take a a look at it.

I know the community of ARMBIAN is quite full and busy, so i will look further.
