The DFI M8MP553 is a compact 3.5" single-board computer built on NXP i.MX 8M Plus applications processors, available with Quad (1.6GHz) or Dual (1.6GHz) Cortex-A53 variants. Designed for embedded, industrial, and AIoT workloads, the SBC integrates a GC7000UL GPU, VPU/ISP acceleration, and optional CAN FD support for automotive and industrial interfaces.

The board supports 2GB/4GB/8GB LPDDR4 memory down and onboard eMMC 5.1 (16GB default, up to 64GB). Dual display output is enabled through HDMI (1920x1080 @ 60Hz) and LVDS (1920x1200 @ 60Hz), while hardware video decode (H.265, H.264, VP9) and encode support up to 1080p60, providing multimedia flexibility.

Connectivity highlights:

  • Ethernet: 2x GbE LAN (RJ-45)

  • Serial: RS-232, RS-485, RS-232/422/485 headers

  • USB: 2x USB 3.1 Gen1, 2x USB 2.0, Micro USB OTG

  • Expansion: M.2 B-Key 3052/2242 (with SIM slot), M.2 E-Key 2230, Nano SIM slot

  • Industrial I/O: 2x CANBus 2.0b (Quad SKU), 8-bit DIO, I2C, audio header, uSD slot

The M8MP553 is engineered for rugged environments, featuring a 9V to 36V DC input, low power consumption (3.6W typical), and an operating temperature range of -30°C to 80 °C. Supported operating systems include Linux Yocto 5.0, Debian 12, and Android 10.

With its robust design, wide-temp operation, and diverse connectivity, the M8MP553 is suited for industrial automation, intelligent medical systems, transport gateways, AIoT edge devices, and multimedia control applications.
