We first wrote about Allwinner T507 when we covered a module and development kit from Forlinx, but now MYiR Tech has designed its own AEC-Q100 qualified System-on-Module (MYC-YT507H) and MYD- YT507H based on Allwinner T507-H processor.

- AEC-Q100 qualified module
It is unclear if there are any differences between Allwinner T507 and T507-H processors with respect to the specifications, so I asked, and was told that the T507-H also supports HDMI, and not only LVDS and composite like the Allwinner T507.
The company provides Ubuntu 18.04.5 with Linux 4.9 desktop environment and XFCE, or Qt5-based MYIR MEasy HMI V2.0 system with local (display) and remote (web-based) human-machine interface to control all I/O. including RS232, RS485, Ethernet, CAN Bus, etc.
Open source drivers are offered with a GNU GCC binary toolchain, but only to customers. The company doesn’t seem to pay much attention to detail, as I was told about a new “AllWinner T507-H processor based SOM featuring a dual-core industrial ARM Cortex-A72 processor” and the bad product link (it’s a habit of them) in the email they sent me, so first I thought “Allwinner finally got a Cortex-A7x processor”, but that was a false alarm.
MYD-YT507H development board
If you want to evaluate the platform, there is the MYD-YT507H development board with the following features:- System on Module – Allwinner T507-H SoM described above
- Storage – MicroSD card slot
- Video output
- 1xHDMI
- 2x single channel LVDS interfaces (40 pin 0.5mm pitch FPC connector)
- 1x dual channel LVDS display interface (30 pin 2.0mm pitch header connector) compatible with MY-LVDS070C LCD module with capacitive touch
- CVBS interface
- audio
- 3.5mm headphone/mic jack
- 1 S/PDIF audio output
- 1x speaker header

- Raspberry Pi 40-pin compatible header with GPIO, I2C, UART, etc. supporting MY-WIREDCOM RPI module for additional RS485 and RS232 ports
- 20 pin expansion header with 1x SDIO and 1x UART supporting MY-WF005S WiFi/BT module
- Miscellaneous – Power switch, 3x buttons (Reset, Power, Flash), RTC battery interface
- Power – DC power jack
MYiR Tech does at least one thing better than most industrial/embedded module vendors and that is they make their prices public and the hardware can be purchased online. The qualified MYC-YT507H AEC-Q100 CPU module retails for $34.90 (1GB RAM) or $39.80 (2GB RAM), while the development board costs $119. More details and purchase links can be found at the product sheet.
