Does iMX 8M Nano support matter protocol(CHIP)

[Karthikeyan_s]

Hi,

  We are planning to evaluate iMX 8M Nano and Mini, could you please suggest us which one would support Matter protocol (CHIP - Connected Home over IP)

Thanks,

Karthik

Hi @Karthikeyan_s 

i.MX 8 Series should support Matter protocol. But since there is already a reference platform hardware which is i.MX8M Mini (MPU / Linux Hosted Matter Development Platform | NXP Semiconductors).

Hi @Harvey021 

             Thanks for the reply, I see in NXP product page, most of the places they mentioned iMX8M mini for Matter support, what about iMX 8M Nano, does it support matter with all 3 mode(wifi, BLE, thread), Could you please suggest us which one would be suitable for matter development with all thread mode?

Thanks,

Karthik

Hi 

I think 8MN is same as 8MM, a difference about their modules and its corresponding I/F.

Hi 

Yes, it supports Matter, but which has not supported for BLE so far.
