We are NXP partners
Witekio has been an NXP partner for more than 15 years since the earliest days of the company.
Our team understands perfectly NXP’s microprocessors and has developed Linux BSP for many of them beginning years ago with the i.MX 2 and for different operating systems (Linux, Android, QNX, etc.). Over the years we’ve developed, optimized, and maintained numerous software systems based on NXP’s i.MX family and experimented with many software architectures, from the most simple to heterogeneous multicore processing architectures.
Witekio has mastered all software aspects on i.MX 6 and i.MX 7 and has developed strong expertise on the i.MX 8.

SUCCESS STORY
Porting the CAAM security features to the i.MX 8M
In 2018, Witekio’s first experience on the i.MX 8 was with NXP directly. Witekio engineers demonstrated the porting of the CAAM (Cryptographic Accelerator and Assurance Module) security features initially developed on i.MX 6 to i.MX 8M. Witekio was given an i.MX 8M EVK and a fresh-from-the-oven Linux BSP by NXP. After some customization efforts, the i.MX 6 CAAM development was ported and successfully up and running on the i.MX 8M.
The development work and fixes were sent back to NXP in order to mainline their Linux Kernel.
As the i.MX 8 gains in popularity, the early adopters of the i.MX 8 are those Witekio customers previously working with i.MX 6 and looking to address some of its limitations. As a result, Witekio is currently involved in several POC projects to evaluate security features and test the GPU and ARMv8 architecture. The i.MX 8 is a truly exciting technological step forward keeping all stakeholders keen to see future announcements!
