MCIMX6DP5EYM1AA

Overview

The MCIMX6DP5EYM1AA is an i.MX 6DualPlus application processor featuring two Arm Cortex-A9 cores operating at 1 GHz. It utilizes a 21 x 21 mm FCPBGA package with a 0.8 mm pitch and supports extended commercial temperatures from -20°C to +105°C. The device integrates hardware accelerators including a VPU, GPU3Dv6, GPU2Dv3, and GPUVG. Memory interfaces support DDR3, DDR3L, and LPDDR2.

Feature Summary

• Dual-core Arm Cortex-A9 MPCore platform with NEON media processing engine
• Integrated multimedia accelerators for video decoding and graphics rendering
• Advanced security features including TrustZone and Cryptographic Acceleration Module
• Flexible connectivity supporting Gigabit Ethernet, USB, and multiple display outputs

Applications

• Graphics rendering for Human Machine Interfaces (HMI)
• Video processing and display systems
• High-end portable media players with HD video capability
• Gaming consoles
• Portable navigation devices (PND)

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'YM' indicates the non-lidded FCPBGA package configuration. Confirm the 'E' designation corresponds to the extended commercial temperature range of -20°C to +105°C. Ensure compatibility with the consumer products data sheet IMX6DQPCEC rather than automotive or industrial variants. Cross-reference the silicon revision 'A' with current manufacturing updates.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring balanced multimedia performance and power efficiency. The dual-core architecture suits tasks needing moderate computational load alongside heavy graphics acceleration. Consider the integrated power management unit for simplified system design. Evaluate memory interface requirements against supported DDR3 and LPDDR2 standards.

Part Context

This part belongs to the i.MX 6DualPlus/6QuadPlus family, designed for high-performance graphics and multimedia applications. It shares architectural similarities with QuadPlus models but offers a dual-core configuration. The series targets consumer electronics demanding advanced visual capabilities and robust connectivity options within a compact form factor.

Replacement Considerations

MCIMX6DP5EYM1AB serves as a pin-compatible alternative within the same series. Verify if the AB suffix denotes any functional differences regarding fusing or silicon revision compared to the AA variant.
