MCIMX31LCJMN4DR2

Microprocessors Overview

The MCIMX31LCJMN4DR2 is a multimedia application processor based on the ARM1136JF-S core, operating at up to 532 MHz. It utilizes 90 nm technology and features a MAPBGA-473 package (Case 1931) with a 0.8 mm pitch. The device includes an integrated GPU, VFP co-processor, MPEG-4 hardware encoder, and Image Processing Unit (IPU). Memory interfaces support DDR, NAND Flash, NOR Flash, SDRAM, and SRAM. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to 85°C.

Microprocessors Feature Summary

• Hardware acceleration for MPEG-4 video encoding and post-processing.
• Integrated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) for 2D/3D graphics.
• Advanced power management via DVFS and clock gating.
• Security features including RNGA, RTIC, and Secure JTAG.

Microprocessors Applications

• High-tier smartphone platforms
• Mid-tier smartphone platforms
• Portable media players

Microprocessors Procurement Notes

Verify silicon revision compatibility, as mask sets may differ in iROM code or errata fixes. Confirm package orientation and pinout alignment with Case 1931 specifications. Ensure voltage supply rails meet strict operating ranges to prevent data corruption during high-speed transfers. Check for regional import restrictions associated with BGA-packaged products from this manufacturer.

Microprocessors Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring dedicated multimedia acceleration and low-power operation. The inclusion of a GPU distinguishes it from the MCIMX31L variant. Consider thermal resistance requirements for the 19x19 mm package when designing the PCB layout. Verify peripheral interface availability against specific system connectivity needs.

Microprocessors Part Context

This part belongs to the Freescale (now NXP) i.MX31 family of multimedia processors. It represents a generation of ARM11-based SoCs designed for mobile devices before the industry transitioned to Cortex-A architectures. The 'R2' suffix typically denotes a specific reel packaging configuration or internal revision tracking within the manufacturing lot.
