Logic Supply has introduced a “ICM-3011” 3.5-inch board with a dual-core i.MX6, wide-range power input, and extended temperature operation.

Like the recent Pico-ITX form factor ICM-2010 SBC that’s also available in an ICS-2010 mini-PC, the ICM-3011 was built by Taipei-based Embux, and is being distributed and supported by Logic Supply. Like the ICM-2010, the $253 ICM-3011 runs on the 1GHz, dual-core DualLite version of NXP’s Cortex-A9-based i.MX6 SoC. It similarly is supported by images for Android 5.0.2 “Lollipop,” Yocto “Daisy” Linux 1.6.2, or Ubuntu Linux 12.04.

As in the case of the iCM-2010, this larger, 146 x 72 x 16mm SBC supports an extended operating temperature range of -20 to 70°C. The ICM-3011 is similarly constructed using all-solid capacitors and 1 percent precision resistors, and features “a completely jumperless design,” says Logic Supply.

The ICM-3011 has a wider range 10.8 to 26.4V power range than the Pico-ITX model, and sips a bit more power at 3.5 Watts. It also has twice the RAM at 2GB, and not surprisingly given the larger size, provides more interfaces. You get 4GB eMMC and an SDIO slot in addition to a full-sized SD slot.

Like the ICM-2010, there are HDMI and GbE ports, but you get two instead of one LVDS interfaces, and more serial, USB, and CAN headers than on the ICM-2010. Other additions include 8-bit GPIO, SPI, a micro-USB port, and audio jacks. Two mini-PCIe slots are accompanied by a SIM slot.

Logic Supply is exclusively selling the higher-end D version. Embux also offers a stripped down L model with fewer LVDS, serial, and mini-PCIe interfaces, among other differences.
