2 i.MX 8M Nano evaluation kit (EVK)
The i.MX 8M Nano EVK provides a platform for comprehensive evaluation of the i.MX 8M
Nano and i.MX 8M Nano Lite application processors. It delivers high performance with
power efficiency, multimedia interfaces, and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth for connectivity out-of-the
box. The two-board solution consists of a compact compute module and a larger base
board that brings out the broad connectivity that is needed for product evaluation. The
compute module is a proven, compact reference to accelerate your own design.
The Evaluation Kit (EVK) based on i.MX 8M Nano introduces developers to the i.MX 8M
Nano application processor. To speed development, hardware design files are provided,
tools and board support packages (BSPs) for Linux are also available.
For more details about the i.MX 8M Nano EVK, please refer to i.MX 8M Nano Evaluation
Kit on NXP website.
2.1 i.MX 8M Nano EVK overview
The i.MX 8M Nano Evaluation Kit (8MNANOLPD4-EVK) is based on NXP i.MX 8M Nano
application processor. The i.MX 8M Nano application processors feature NXP advanced
implementation of the Quad Arm Cortex-A53 and Cortex-M7 cores, which operate at
speeds up to 1.5 GHz and 750 MHz respectively. Each i.MX 8M Nano device provides
a 16-bit DDR3L/DDR4/LPDDR4 memory interface and other interfaces for connecting
peripherals, such as MIPI LCD, MIPI Camera, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Ethernet, Digital Mic, and
multi-sensors.

4 i.MX 8M Nano EVK Linux image setup
NXP provides a pre-built binary demo image that can be written to eMMC storage on the
i.MX 8M Nano EVK. We recommend to first use the pre-built image to bring up the board
and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth interfaces. Later on, follow i.MX Yocto Project User's Guide to create
and customize images for the EVK.
4.1 Using the pre-built image
The pre-built image is available for download on i.MX 8M Nano EVK Software and Tools
tab on NXP website. It requires to accept NXP software license agreement.
The pre-built download archive file contains all the binary demo images for
the i.MX 8M Nano EVK. The latest download when this guide was written was

imx-image-full-imx8mnevk.wic is the binary file written to eMMC that boots Linux. Refer
to Section 4.3 "Flashing the image to eMMC" for steps to write the file. Please refer to
IMXLUG section "Preparing an SD/MMC card to boot" for the organization of the binary
images comprised in the .wic image.
4.2 i.MX 8M Nano Linux BSP
The i.MX 8M Nano Linux BSP is a collection of binary files, source code, and support
files used to create a U-Boot bootloader, a Linux kernel image, and a root file system for
i.MX 8M Nano EVK.
Refer to i.MX Yocto Project User's Guide for information on how to set up the Linux OS
host, how to run and configure a Yocto Project, and how to generate an image and rootfs.

4.3 Flashing the image to eMMC
NXP has developed a free Universal Update Utility (UUU) deploy image tool that runs on
a host computer (Windows, Linux, MacOS soon) and communicates over a USB OTG/
Type C cable connected to the i.MX 8M Nano to write the image to the on-board eMMC.
The following sections describe the use of Linux host and UUU to write the .wic image to
eMMC.
Note: For more information on UUU please refer to https://github.com/NXPmicro/
mfgtools/wiki.
Download UUU
Download UUU version 1.3.171 (recommended) from https://github.com/NXPmicro/
mfgtools/releases.
Change permissions
chmod +x uuu
Copy UUU
Copy the uuu binary into the /usr/bin/ directory.
UUU usage
Follow these instructions to use the UUU for i.MX 8M Nano:
• Connect a USB cable from a computer to the USB OTG/TYPE C port on the board
• Connect a USB cable from the OTG-to-UART port to the computer for console output
• Open a Terminal emulator program (for example minicom). The i.MX 8M Nano
enumerates two consoles from the USB OTG-to-UART connection: one console is for
the Cortex-A53 cores and one console is for the Cortex-M7. The connection settings
for both consoles are 115200, 8N1, No Flow Control. On Linux the USB enumerations
typically are /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyUSB1 for each console. Refer to Section 4.4.1
"Serial console setup".
• Set the boot pin to serial download mode (refer to Section 2.3 "i.MX 8M Nano EVK
switch settings")
The pre-built binary archive contains a uuu.auto script that extracts the release package
and writes rootfs.wic into eMMC:
ubuntu@ubuntu-desktop:/# sudo uuu uuu.auto-imx8mnevk

4.4 Booting from eMMC
To boot the i.MX 8M Nano EVK from eMMC, set the boot switch per the settings given in
Section 2.3 "i.MX 8M Nano EVK switch settings".
4.4.1 Serial console setup
ttyUSB0 or ttyUSB1 are the serial devices. The console output is on the second ttyUSBx.
Open the serial console and login into the device:
ubuntu@ubuntu-desktop:/# sudo minicom -s -D /dev/ttyUSB1
Minicom setup configuration:
A - Serial Device : /dev/ttyUSB1
E - Bps/Par/Bits : 115200 8N1
F - Hardware Flow Control : No
G - Software Flow Control : No
Save and exit.
4.4.2 Linux OS login
The default login username for the i.MX Linux OS is root. There is no password.
4.4.3 Software package release information
The software package release version information is provided in the release notes.
