MCIMX6L7DVN10AB

Overview

The MCIMX6L7DVN10AB is a microprocessor unit within the NXP i.MX 6SoloLite series. It integrates a single ARM Cortex-A9 core operating at 800 MHz and an ARM Cortex-M4 core running at 166 MHz. The device utilizes a BGA-400 package. It supports LPDDR2, LVDSR3, and DDR3 memory controllers. The processor includes NEON SIMD multimedia capabilities and hardware graphics acceleration.

Feature Summary

• Dual-core architecture combining high-performance application processing with low-power real-time control
• Integrated multimedia engine supporting NEON SIMD for efficient signal processing
• Hardware-accelerated graphics rendering for intelligent display interfaces
• Comprehensive security features including secure boot and tamper detection

Applications

• Smart home automation devices requiring integrated control and connectivity
• Industrial human-machine interface panels
• Portable computing devices with display requirements
• Medical equipment with user interface needs

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific silicon revision and stepping code against the latest NXP errata sheet before finalizing design implementation. Confirm that the BGA-400 package dimensions align precisely with the target PCB footprint and thermal management strategy. Ensure supply chain sources provide original manufacturer documentation to guarantee component authenticity and traceability throughout the production lifecycle.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-core application processor is sufficient, reducing system cost compared to dual-core variants. The inclusion of the Cortex-M4 core allows for dedicated handling of real-time tasks or peripheral management without impacting the main application thread. This configuration is optimal for applications balancing computational performance with power efficiency constraints in compact form factors.

Part Context

This part belongs to the i.MX 6SoloLite family, designed as a cost-effective solution for smart devices. It shares architectural similarities with the broader i.MX 6 series but focuses on single-core application processing. The platform targets markets demanding intelligent displays and connectivity while maintaining lower power consumption profiles suitable for battery-operated or thermally constrained environments.

Replacement Considerations

MCIMX6L3DVN10AB: Offers a higher clock speed of 1.0 GHz for the Cortex-A9 core while maintaining the same package and core count.
