Working Principle

The working principle of MCIMX6S5EVM10ADR is based on the execution of numerous instructions, which are gathered in a sequence, in order to process the data given. This data is understood by the processor as sequential steps, external input, internal states and other program structures.

First of all, the processor must identify all the peripheral devices connected to it. Each device is seen as a specific source of data and each has its own communication protocol. Once all the devices are identified then the next step is to configure the various parameters of the peripheral devices. After this, the processor enters the main loop. This loop executes the instructions that manage the communication between the processor and the peripheral devices as well as calculations, communications and output of information.

The MCIMX6S5EVM10ADR processor offers very high performance, low power consumption and superior wired and wireless connectivity. This makes it an excellent choice for a wide range of embedded designs. It is especially excellent when used in a combination of high performance and low power consuming tasks.
