MYiR Tech MYC-LD25X – A compact STM32MP25 system-on-module running Debian 12

MYiR Tech’s MYC-LD25X is a compact 39x37mm system-on-module built around the STMicro STM32MP25 dual-core Cortex-A35 SoC running at 1.5GHz with a Cortex-M33 core, and an NPU capable of 1.35 TOPS. The module comes with up to 2GB LPDDR4 RAM, 8GB eMMC storage, and a range of connectivity options, including Gigabit Ethernet, USB, CAN FD, UART, and SPI. Designed for industrial HMI, edge computing, energy systems, and automation, the MYC-LD25X is suitable for high-performance applications in these fields.

Previously, we covered other development boards from MYiR, including the MYD-J7A100T, MYD-YG2UL, MYD-YG2LX, and MYD-J1028X. We also wrote about other STM32MP25-based system-in-package and system-on-module namely the Digi ConnectCore MP25 and Octavo OSD32MP2. Feel free to check them out if you’re interested.

    1. x86 is a CISC architecture, Arm is a RISC architecture. It’s not mentioned in specs often though…

      1. ARM is not really RISC anymore, there’s a world of complexity underneath the hood of the application cortex A processor.

    1. You can purchase the module and devkit online if you have a PayPal account or a credit card. Sayantan provided the link and pricing information.
