1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose
The iW-RainboW-G33D i.MX8M SMARC SOM development platform incorporates i.MX8M Quad/QuadLite/Dual
(Q/QL/D) CPU based SMARC SOM and generic SMARC Carrier board for complete validation of i.MX8M Q/QL/D CPU
functionality. This document is the hardware user guide for the i.MX8M SMARC carrier board. This guide provides
detailed information on the overall design and usage of the SMARC carrier board from a hardware systems
perspective. Complete information about the i.MX8M SMARC SOM hardware is explained in another document “iW-
RainboW-G33M-i.MX8M-SMARC-SOM-HardwareUserGuide”.
1.2 Overview
iW-RainboW-G33D-i.MX8M development Platform comes with i.MX8M Q/QL/D based SMARC SOM, SMARC V2.0
Generic Carrier board along with 5.5-inch Capacitive Touch Display. The development board can be used for quick
prototyping of various applications targeted by the i.MX8M Q/QL/D application processor. With the 120mmx120mm
Nano ITX form factor, SMARC carrier board is highly packed with all the necessary on-board connectors to validate the
features of i i.MX8M Q/QL/D SMARC SOM.
