    Arduino SAM3X chipset it's very easy to program with Arduino IDE,and the Freescale IMX6 it's very powerful, but how i make a connection between them?to send data in both direction?It's a protocol?

    Hi,
    There are lots of connection between the two processors. For example there's a serial connection always on that you can manage in all programming language with a library (for example pySerial for python, librxtx for Java, php Serial, etc.) or directly managing the serial dev ttymxc3 under linux. In this way you can easily exchange message with the Serial object of Arduino. Take a look to the tutorials and projects in the Discover section in the website.
    For example:
    http://www.udoo.org/ProjectsAndTutorial ... lioID=1394
    http://www.udoo.org/ProjectsAndTutorial ... oo-part-1/
    http://www.udoo.org/ProjectsAndTutorial ... udoo-pt-3/

    Another connection between the two processors is an USB OTG bus that is usually used when imx6 run Android. For examples you can check here:
    http://www.udoo.org/ProjectsAndTutorial ... lioID=1394
    http://www.udoo.org/ProjectsAndTutorial ... lioID=1394
    http://www.udoo.org/ProjectsAndTutorial ... lioID=1368

    Another way to communicate between the processors is with two programs that manage the shared pins.
