The pin-compatible Colibri ARM embedded computer on module product family is based on Intel/Marvell XScale (PXA270, PXA300, PXA310, PXA320) and NVIDIA Tegra 2 & 3 processors. The Colibri family delivers cost-performance optimized designs. Small form factor Colibri modules are highly miniaturized and encapsulate complex computer system on module hardware and software technology for fast and easy embedded product development. A large amount of Colibri compatible Carrier Boards and Accessories, such as LVDS Converters and Displays, can be found by clicking on the individual Colibri Product lines below. The modules comprise a pre-installed Windows CE 5.0/6.0 or Windows Embedded Compact 7 Core image, along with the respective runtime license under the Microsoft OEM ID 45746. Linux and Android are also available.

| Bootloaders and Board Support Packages (BSPs) were designed to be very configurable. This relieves the application-developer from the burden of creating a custom image. Instead, the necessary adaptations can be made by configuring settings and adding files to the flash file system. |
BSPs for Windows Embedded Compact (formerly Windows CE) 5.0/6.0/7.0 are among the most advanced and robust BSPs available on the market. Beside the standard Windows Embedded Compact functionality, they include optimized versions of drivers as well as support for additional peripherals. The BSPs are available for download at no cost. | BSPs for Linux, include driver support for the integrated peripherals. The BSPs are available for download at no cost. |
Toradex provides free software libraries for additional features including Camera Interface, SPI, PWM, I2C, CAN and cloud connectivity. Furthermore, an UpdateLib for updating the bootloader and operating system is available. |
