Board looks fine but something is wrong with software image or power or whatever.

Are you using the same image for A13-SOM and for A13-Micro?

The Bootloader U-Boot requires different settings for DRAM for both boards, so this could be the reason why it fails.

Could you try the official Image for the A13-SOM?
