1. Voltage on pin L+.<br />
2. Applying the maximum voltage 3.6V results in shorten lifetime. Recommended value is smaller than 3.5V.<br />
2. The computer works correctly in the entire range of supply voltages, only the sensitivity range of the DI inputs may change.<br />
3. Excluding external devices connected to the computer (like pendrives, USB modems etc.).<br />
4. Resistive load.<br />
5. The internal current limiter switches on at a load of 1.9A.<br />

SL-IoT-BOX-6ULL Datasheet and Pinout

General description

The SL-IoT-BOX-6ULL is a industrial fanless computer. It is compact, energy-efficient computer dedicated for edge and PLC applications.
Powered by the NXP i.MX6ULL processor, it offers versatile connectivity with RS232, RS485, CAN-FD, USB, Ethernet, and optional WiFi/BLE with external antenna. It provides digital and relay I/O, expandable storage via eMMC or MicroSD, as well as development-friendly features like LED indicators, a console port, and RTC with battery backup.
Designed for reliability and flexibility, the SL-IoT-BOX-6ULL industrial fanless computer is an ideal platform for modern IoT and industrial solutions. By integrating OpenPLC software, industrial applications become more scalable, future-ready, and performance-driven.
At the core of the system, the powerful VisionSOM-6ULL module drives the performance of the computer.
The SL-IoT-BOX industrial fanless edge computer comes in a durable aluminum enclosure, rated IP40 for reliable protection.
