A20-OLinuXino-LIME2 is OSHW certified Open Source Hardware with UID BG000039

Upgraded and improved version of A20-OLinuXino-LIME with double the RAM and Gigabit Ethernet.

We offer several variants of the board. Aside from the base version we offer a variant with extra eMMC or NAND flash memory (suffix -e4G, -e16G, or -n8G); we have a variant with 16MB SPI flash memory (suffix -s16M). We also have variants of the board suitable for industrial temperature range of operation (-40+85)C - these come with the "T2" chip and have "-IND" suffix in the name.

FAQ

Can I use the Linux or Android image for A20-OLinuXino-LIME or A10-OLinuXino-LIME instead of the one for A20-OLinuXino-LIME2?
The SOC images are universal, i.e. A10 image will work on all our A10 boards, A20 image will work on all A20 board modifications.

Hello, I made a shield for my LIME board. I now own a LIME2 board. Can I use the shield with the LIME2 design?
No. The LIME2 design swaps the signals of each row of each 0.5" step header. All four GPIO headers and the LCD header are affected. Shields made for LIME boards can't be connected directly to a LIME2 board.

What do I need to connect one of the Olimex-made displays to the board?
LCD-OLinuXino displays are supported by all OLinuXino boards, all you need is proper cable which to connect the LCD and the board, refer to LCD-OLinuXino user manual for more info.

I bought a supported LCD and the required cables but when I connect it to the A20-OLinuXino-LIME2 I receive no image on the display. What do I do wrong?
LCD-OLinuXino and latest version of LIME2 are plug and play i.e. if LCD is attacheed it will be recognized and activated, on old LIME2 board you will need to run once olinuxino-display and select the display you attached. The info will be saved and the LCD will always be activated.

What is the operating temperature range of A20-OLinuXino-LIME2?
The board works in the commercial temperature range 0+70C. If you need industrial grade boards -40+85C use T2-OLinuXino-LIME2
