The i.MX 50 evaluation kit (EVK) offers developers a cost effective platform to develop, debug, and demonstrate their i.MX50 processor based solution.
- The EVK supports all of the features of the i.MX50 family in a single-board design.
- Developers can get started for under $500 and directly output via the HDMI connector, or purchase the optional LCD or optional EPD boards for maximum display flexibility.
- Features readily available design files and board support packages (BSPs) with optimized drivers.
- Like other i.MX solutions, the i.MX50 EVK is supported by a rich ecosystem and a community of developers at imxcommunity.org .
