Description

The EDATEC CM4NANO is a purpose-built industrial embedded computer leveraging the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 architecture. It delivers the full processing power of the quad-core Broadcom BCM2711 SoC within a ruggedized form factor designed for reliable 24/7 operation. The board integrates robust thermal management via a dedicated heatsink and metal enclosure, effectively dissipating heat from the CPU, wireless module, and power management unit to ensure stability in elevated ambient temperatures.

Connectivity is comprehensive, featuring a Gigabit Ethernet port with PoE capability, dual USB 3.0 host ports, and full compatibility with Raspberry Pi camera and touch display modules through standard CSI and DSI interfaces. The inclusion of an external antenna connector enhances wireless performance for the integrated dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 radios. Power input is flexible, accepting 12-18V DC via screw terminal or barrel jack, while the 40-pin header supplies ample 5V and 3.3V power for expansion modules.

Key Features

  • Industrial-grade design with metal enclosure and integrated heatsink for superior thermal performance and mechanical durability.
  • High-performance computing with a 1.5GHz quad-core Cortex-A72 CPU, 8GB LPDDR4 RAM, and 8GB eMMC for fast boot and application storage.
  • Enhanced wireless reliability with dual-band 2.4/5.8 GHz Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 5.0, supported by an external antenna.
  • Wide-range 12-18V DC input with optional Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) support via official Raspberry Pi PoE HAT for simplified deployment.
  • Extended operating temperature range from -25°C to 60°C, certified for reliable operation in industrial and outdoor environments.
  • Comprehensive I/O expansion including 40-pin GPIO, USB 3.0 ports, Gigabit Ethernet, CSI camera, and DSI display interfaces.
  • Onboard real-time clock (RTC) with battery backup for timekeeping during power cycles and system buzzer for audible alerts.
  • DIN rail and screw mounting options for easy integration into control cabinets and industrial automation systems.

Applications

  • Industrial IoT (IIoT) gateways for data aggregation and protocol conversion (Modbus, MQTT).
  • Edge computing nodes for machine vision, video analytics, and AI inference.
  • Digital signage and interactive kiosk controllers with touch display output.
  • Robotics and automation control systems requiring real-time processing and GPIO.
  • Network-attached storage (NAS) or media servers leveraging USB 3.0 and Gigabit Ethernet.
  • Environmental monitoring stations in wide-temperature outdoor settings.

Frequently Asked Questions

What operating system does the EDATEC CM4NANO support, and how is it installed?

The board supports Raspberry Pi OS (Raspbian) and other compatible Linux distributions. The operating system is typically flashed onto the onboard 8GB eMMC storage using a computer and the Raspberry Pi Imager tool, selecting the CM4 as the target device. Alternatively, you can boot from a microSD card inserted into the onboard holder if you prefer not to use the eMMC for the OS.

How do I power the CM4NANO board, and what are the PoE requirements?

You can power it via the 12-18V DC input using either the provided barrel jack (5.5/2.5mm) or the Phoenix terminal block. For Power-over-Ethernet, you must attach an official Raspberry Pi PoE HAT to the board's 4-pin PoE header. The HAT will draw power from a PoE-enabled network switch (802.3af/at) and regulate it for the board, eliminating the need for a separate DC power supply.

Can I connect official Raspberry Pi cameras and displays to this baseboard?

Yes, the CM4NANO is fully compatible. Use the standard 22-pin FPC CSI connector for Raspberry Pi HQ, V2, or other official camera modules. For displays, the DSI interface supports the official 7-inch touchscreen. The HDMI port is also available for secondary monitor output. Ensure you use the correct ribbon cables and enable the interfaces in the Raspberry Pi OS configuration.

What is the purpose of the onboard Real-Time Clock (RTC) and how is it maintained?

The RTC provides accurate timekeeping when the main system is powered off, which is critical for data logging applications. It is powered by a backup battery (typically a CR2032 coin cell) installed on the board. You need to configure the OS to use the hardware RTC, often by installing drivers and setting the system time from the RTC on boot, ensuring timestamps remain valid across reboots.
