Developed in a variety of different areas, including high-end mobile Internet devices, high-end handheld computers, high-end portable media players, game consoles and portable navigation devices.
The MarS Board Super ARM DIY platform uses Freescale's i.MX6 Cortex-A9 dual-core processor. It is because of its powerful function and powerful multimedia display capability. It can be used in a wide range of applications. i.MX6 processor
Freescale i.MX6 series processor
The i.MX 6 Series processors introduce the industry's first truly scalable multi-core platform, including the single-core, dual-core and quad-core families based on the ARM® CortexTM-A9 architecture. Supported by a strong ecosystem, the i.MX 6 Series is an ideal platform for developing a range of end products based on a single hardware design. The i.MX 6 Series features high-performance multimedia processing, pin* and software compatibility, and built-in power management, built specifically for the new era of smart devices.

MarS Board
· Compatibility
MarS Board is paired with i.MX 6Dual processor by default, and MarS Board provides customizable service. Because i.MX6 Dual and i.MX6Quad ​​processor are compatible with Pin-to-Pin, it can be replaced with i.MX6Quad ​​processor, software. Compatible, no modification, seamless switching between hardware and software.
· Multiple display interfaces
MarS Board supports LCD, LVDS, HDMI display interfaces, LCD interface can be used with 4.3-inch and 7-inch LCD screens, support resistive touch screen input; LVDS interface can be used with 9.7-inch LVDS display, support capacitive touch screen input; HDMI interface For connection to HDMI HD displays, the resolution is up to 1080p60. The display and this diversified display interface meet the diverse and individual needs of different customers for different applications.
· Multiple operating systems
MarS Board supports uCOS-II, Ubuntu 11.10, Android 4.0.4 operating systems to meet the needs of different users. By modifying the code, you can achieve AMP (each CPU core runs a different operating system), theoretical support uCOS-II, Ubuntu, Android operating system any combination, we currently provide uCOS-II with Ubuntu demo demo. The support of MarS Board's multiple operating systems gives software engineers a better space for development. Different system engineers can do different levels of development work based on this platform. The relevant BSP package provided by MarS Board also gives engineers an assessment basis. Resource

· tablet
Android 4.0.4 system, with LCD8000-97C display module, 1024x768 resolution, multi-point capacitive touch screen input, you can build an Android tablet computer in a few simple steps.
· HD Internet TV Box
Android 4.0.4 system, HDMI high-definition interface, 10/100M/1Gbps Ethernet interface (can connect Wi-Pi module to expand wireless network), home theater is not a dream.
· Arduino Shields
The seamless integration of MarS Board, Embedded PI and Arduinoniode brings a new hardware-integrated model that gives engineers who evaluate Ardunio, Embedded PI and MarS Board hardware platforms a whole new experience. The extended interface provided by the MarS Board has a wealth of IO data and is compatible with existing Arduino Shields by connecting to the Embedded Pi. Among them, the Embedded Pi acts as the Adapter between the MarS Board and the Arduino Shields, and the MarS Board communicates with the Embedded Pi through the UART/I2C/SPI interface to establish contact with the Arduino Shields connected to the Embedded Pi. . A separate technical article on this new hardware integration model will be introduced later.
· AMP (asymmetric muliTIprocessing) operating system
Want to take full advantage of the advantages of multi-core, to achieve the AMP operating system, MarS Board can do. One core runs uCOS-II, one core runs Ubuntu, the real-time control part is handed over to uCOS-II, and the interface exchange is handed over to Ubuntu. An interesting application is self-balancing trolley.
