NXP i.MX 8X QuadXPlus SMARC 2.1 module, 4 GB LPDDR4, 16 GB eMMC 5.1
The congatec conga-SMX8-X/QXP-4G eMMC16 is a SMARC 2.1 computer-on-module built on the NXP i.MX 8QuadXPlus (4x Arm Cortex-A35 plus a Cortex-M4F real-time core) with 4 GB LPDDR4 and 16 GB onboard eMMC, drawing only about 2–5 W. It targets fanless industrial controllers, HMI panels, medical and transportation gateways, and vision or IIoT edge devices needing dual GbE, CAN and long-term availability. Supply of this module is constrained with extended lead times; Cerametronics can enquire on allocation and traceable stock.

FAQ
What does the part number conga-SMX8-X/QXP-4G eMMC16 encode?
SMX8-X is the SMARC 2.1 module family for NXP i.MX 8X; QXP = i.MX 8QuadXPlus processor; 4G = 4 GB LPDDR4; eMMC16 = 16 GB onboard eMMC. congatec's current price list shows the industrial version conga-SMX8-X/i-QXP-4G eMMC16 (P/N 051110, -40 to +85 °C); the variant without the /i- prefix appeared as P/N 051100 in the early sample set, so confirm the exact P/N and temperature grade before ordering.
Which carrier boards and sister modules are compatible?
congatec lists the conga-SEVAL (P/N 007010) evaluation carrier and the conga-SMC1/SMARC-ARM (P/N 020750) carrier for this module; a 2 GB version (conga-SMX8-X/i-QXP-2G eMMC16, P/N 051113) and passive cooling parts (conga-SMX8-X/i-CSP-B and HSP-B) are available. Any SMARC 2.1 carrier designed for Arm modules can host it.
