Raspberry Pi sized Grapeboard SBC runs Linux on NXP’s single-core –A53
The GrapeBoard SBC, which runs Linux on NXP’s single-core, Cortex-A53 QorIQ LS1012A SoC, is designed for IoT applications that require a combination of CPU performance, high-speed networking, and data storage and retrieval, including sensor gateways, communication hubs, and secure edge devices.
The LS1012A is still the only SoC that uses a 64-bit Cortex-A architecture processor in a single-core configuration. This minimalist approach enables the networking focused SoC to run at a typical 1W. The 9.6 x 9.6mm LS1012A features a 2Gbps packet crypto accelerator, a packet forwarding engine, and ARM TrustZone and QorIQ Trust Architecture security.
The Grapeboard provides 1GB of DDR3L, 8MB of SPI NOR flash for BCD and bootloader, and 64MB of SPI NOR flash for U-boot and a user-customizable Linux Kernel. A microSD slot is also available.
The board is supposed to run Linux, and we do not know availability nor pricing information right now, the company (Scalys) will showcase the board at CES 2018 in less than two weeks.
