• Audio – 3.5mm jack for stereo output, line-in, microphone;
• USB – 1x USB 2.0 OTG micro-USB connector, 2x USB2.0 hosts, and up to 3x USB2.0 host via a 100-mil header.
• Storage – full-size SD socket (precludes WiFi/BT module)
• Serial Interfaces – 1x serial debug port (micro USB) or 1x serial debug port via RS232 transceiver, and Up-to 2x UART, 3.3V levels, 100-mil header
• Other I/Os – SPI, I2C, GPIO and ADC via 100-mil header
• Misc – Real time clock operated from on-board coin-cell battery
• Power Supply – Unregulated 8V to 15V
• Dimensions – 160 x 136 x 22 mm
• Temperature Range – Commercial: 0° to 70° C; Extended: -20° to 70° C; Industrial: -40° to 85° C.

Compulab CL-SOM-iMX6UL system-on-module will be available in November 2015 starting at $29 in 1K orders, while SB-SOM-iMX6UL carrier board will start at $81 for the  commercial temperature range version.
