The Nitrogen8M Plus System on Module (SOM) is the latest in our line of i.MX based Nitrogen platforms, leveraging the recently released i.MX 8M Plus processors from NXP. The  RAM (2-4GB) and eMMC (16-128) can be modified to fit your requirements. The Nitrogen8M Plus SOM is designed for mass production use with a guaranteed 10 year lifespan, FCC Pre-scan results, and a stable supply chain. Industrial temperature and conformal coating options are available. The Nitrogen8M Plus Carrier Boards can be found on the Accessories Tab below. Altium design files for the carriers and design reviews can be provided at no cost with volume purchase.

FAQ

How do I set the bootloader back to its default configuration?

The command "env erase" will restore defaults when executed in the bootloader.

How do I configure my network connection?

NMCLI should be utilized to configure network interfaces. 

Installing and configuring REPO the easy way!

The repo tool is often available to be installed using a package manager. In the case you're facing challenges with this method, or would like to directly add the repo files to your path, the following commands can be used:

sudo wget https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo -O /usr/local/bin/repo
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/repo

When you run the "repo init" command for the first time you will be asked to configure your name and email. You can also set these values with the following commands:

git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global color.ui true
