Unboxing the Summit SOM 8M Plus Development Kit

The Summit SOM 8M Plus is our most powerful SOM yet. It is powered by NXP’s innovative i.MX 8M Plus processor and 88W8997 wireless silicon coupled with onboard NXP PMICs (PCA9450CHN and PM823UK), performance LPDDR4 RAM, and eMMC 5.1 storage. We combine this with our long-term support Summit Yocto Linux, secure enclave, and Summit Linux FIPS Core Crypto to offer a comprehensive hardware and software solution throughout your product’s lifecycle.

In this video, Software Dev Engineer Chris Trowbridge unboxes the Summit SOM 8M Plus development kit, demonstrates the kit's contents, how to assemble, how to flash an image to SD, and how to boot and login to the Summit SOM 8M Plus.
