first Colibri module with optional certified
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity on-board. The
module is a secure and low power solution for
connected IoT applications, including edge
devices and IoT gateways.
The new Colibri module is based on NXP i.MX 6ULL
application processor, the latest addition to the
popular i.MX6 family. Colibri iMX6ULL features a
single core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU optimized for low
power and cost. The Colibri iMX6ULL includes
state of the art security features like ARM
TrustZone, encryption engines and a secure boot
option. The display interface supports
resolutions up to 1366 x 768 and an RMII
interface allows adding a second Ethernet port.
The available on-board Wi-Fi solution supports
dual-band 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n Wi-Fi in the 2.4GHz
and 5GHz bands with up to 300Mbits/s transfer
speeds. Simultaneous station and access point
mode are supported for broad Wi-Fi application
use cases

. Additionally, it features the latest Bluetooth
4.2/BLE (Dual-Mode) standards to connect low
power sensors or other devices such as
smartphones, tablets or PCs. The Colibri iMX6ULL
comes with full wireless certifications for
several countries to lower initial costs and time
to market.
Colibri iMX6ULL fits seamlessly into the Colibri
family ecosystem and will work with all Toradex
Colibri carrier boards. The module inherits the
ruggedness of the Colibri family of System on
Modules which have been used in many demanding
applications since 2005. Toradex offers the
Colibri iMX6ULL with an industrial temperature
range option (-40 to 85C) and availability
until at least 2028.
As with all Toradex Modules, the Colibri iMX6ULL
comes with renowned Toradex support and an
extensive solution ecosystem. The ecosystem
includes a wide variety of off-the-shelf carrier
boards and proven design partners who offer fully
customized carrier boards. Many 3rd-party
