The [WandBoard] is a very low-cost development platform based on the Freescale i.MX6 processor.

Hardware
There are currently two versions of WandBoard, "Solo" and "Dual". The WandBoard itself is a System-On-Module of the EDM standard that comes with a matching motherboard. The motherboard is quite trivial and is the same for both versions of the WandBoard.
EDM module
- Freescale i.MX6 CPU (ARM Cortex A9)
- i.MX6 Solo (single core) on "Solo" version
- i.MX6 Dual Lite (dual core) on "Dual" version
- Vivante GPU:
- 3D core: GC880 @ @ 533MHz, 1 shader core 4.8 GFLOPS
- 2D core: GC320 composition engine
- DDR3 RAM
- 512 MB on "Solo" version (two 2Gbit chips)
- 1 Gigabyte on "Dual" version (four 2Gbit chips)
- MicroSD card slot (bootable, at SD3 of the CPU)
- AR8031 Gigabit LAN
- BCM4329 Wi-Fi+Bluetooth (at SD2, UART3, AUD5; unpopulated on "Solo" version)
- Flat cable connector for camera (CSI, I2C2, GPIO)
- Power circuit (5V input)
Motherboard
- Gigabit LAN connector
- HDMI connector
- USB host connector (USB3 for future use but currently in USB2 mode only)
- USB OTG connector
- MicroSD card slot (at SD1)
- UART DB9 connector (at UART1 via ADM3202)
- Audio I/O (at AUD3 via SGTL5000) and SPDIF (3.5mm jacks and optical)
- 5VDC power barrel connector
- SATA connector (probably unpopulated, reserved for future use; no SATA on i.MX6 Solo and Dual Lite)
- Four 1.27mm 2x10 expansion headers:
- LVDS0 (4 signal pairs + clock), +3V3
- Flat panel display data lines (24 bit total); no power or GND at this header
- Rest of FPD data lines, FPD control lines, +3V3, three I2C interfaces
- One SPI (with two CS), 8 GPIO lines, +5V
Availability
As of Jan 17, 2013 preorder only. Prices are 69 USD for Solo and 89 USD for Dual. First boards seem to be shipped to partner developers.
