BUILT TO WORK TOGETHER
Build the carrier around your application.
LM7 brings the RK3588 processor, memory and eMMC together in an LGA module for embedded integration. The available signal functions give you options for cameras, displays, storage and network connectivity.
Develop with the reference kit, then validate power design, pad layout, interface multiplexing and software support on your own carrier.

THE DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM
Evaluate with the W3 development kit.
Use the W3 development kit to evaluate LM7. This image shows the complete carrier board with its physical ports and expansion connectors.
The image describes the development kit, not the standalone LM7 module. Your custom carrier determines which module signals become physical ports.

BEFORE YOU BUILD
Frequently asked questions
Is LM7 a standalone single-board computer?
No. LM7 is a 506-pin LGA system-on-module. It must be integrated with suitable carrier hardware. The W3 development kit provides a ready-made evaluation platform.
What does the purchase button open?
The purchase button opens the existing LM7 development-kit product page. Contact sales for standalone-module configurations and product integration requirements.
Can I use the development-kit supply on the module?
The module specification lists a 4V supply with ±5% variation. The development carrier has its own power design. Do not apply its external input voltage directly to LM7.
Are Ethernet and USB sockets installed on LM7?
No. The module exposes signal functions through LGA pads. The carrier board implements physical sockets, supporting circuitry and routing.
Can all interfaces run at the same time?
Many RK3588 functions share pins or PHY resources. Check the complete module pad map and multiplexing requirements before choosing a simultaneous interface configuration.
How do I begin software development?
Start with the documented W3 kit image and the ArmSoM source resources. Bring up your application there, then adapt the device tree, drivers and configuration to your custom carrier.
