EDM-WB-IMX93

The EDM-WB-IMX93 development kit comprises a EDM-WB baseboard and an EDM-IMX93 and EDM-IMX91 System-on-Module. The EDM-WB-IMX93 Baseboard is a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) designed to be compatible with TechNexion's EDM-IMX93 and EDM-IMX91 System-on-Modules (SoMs). It has dimensions of 85mm x 125mm and supports various external connectors and peripheral devices.

Board Power

The EDM-WB-IMX93 baseboard can be powered either by the USB type C connector (5V), or by the 12V DCIN jack (12V supply sold separately).

A 12V power supply is necessary for connecting an LVDS display or a VizionLink camera to the board. Additionally, it is recommended when attaching high power-consumption peripherals such as powered USB devices.DC jack more information :DCIN1.

Install Demo Software Images

When your kit arrives, it will be preprogrammed with an image that will assist you in loading software onto the board for the first time. This image is known as the TechNexion Software Loader (or TSL).

The TSL connects the kit to an internet-connected network via the Ethernet port. It operates as a graphical user interface application and functions optimally when used with an attached display, such as the LVDS touchscreen kit.

The TSL will guide you through a series of screens, enabling you to choose the type of image (Yocto, Debian, or Android) and the storage location (e.g. eMMC, SD card).

Additional Demo Images

If you want to download additional demo images, you can easily do this by navigating your browser to our download server. We usually update these 2-3 times a year as we release updated BSPs.

Boot Media Selection Switch

There are two primary boot media selection settings on the EDM-WB: boot from e.MMC and boot from the baseboard microSD card. These settings are controlled using the DIP switch SW1. When SW1-1 is OFF and SW1-2 is OFF, the board will boot from e.MMC. Conversely, when SW1-1 is OFF and SW1-2 is ON, the board will boot from the baseboard microSD card.

info

Note the default boot media is EMMC

Boot Mode Selection Button

There are two main boot modes: Normal boot, where the SOC boots from either e.MMC or microSD card (determined by the SW1-2 setting), and serial download mode. Serial download mode is useful when reprogramming a blank e.MMC or completely overwriting the e.MMC without needing to run a serial console.

To boot into serial download mode,change DIP switch SW1-1 to ON and SW1-2 is OFF . A power on reset (POR) or a manual reset are required after changing the SW1 DIP switch settings.
