MCIMX6X1AVO08AC

Overview

The MCIMX6X1AVO08AC is an i.MX 6SoloX automotive processor featuring a single Arm Cortex-A9 core at 800 MHz and a Cortex-M4 core at 227 MHz. It utilizes a 17x17 mm BGA package with 0.8 mm pitch. The device supports DDR3-800, DDR3L-800, and LPDDR2-800 memory interfaces. It includes two Gigabit Ethernet controllers with AVB support, two CAN ports, and MLB connectivity. The part lacks 2D/3D GPU, PCIe, and LVDS display capabilities.

Feature Summary

• Heterogeneous dual-core architecture combining application processing and real-time control
• Automotive-grade reliability with extended temperature range support
• Integrated multimedia peripherals including camera interfaces and pixel processing pipeline
• Hardware-accelerated security features for secure boot and data protection

Applications

• Entry-level automotive infotainment systems
• Telematics control units
• Digital instrument clusters
• Human-machine interface (HMI) displays

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific silicon revision maskset (4N19K) required for your production timeline. Confirm that the absence of GPU, PCIe, and LVDS interfaces aligns with your hardware design constraints. Ensure compatibility with the MMPF0100 or MMPF0200 companion PMICs for power management implementation.

Selection Notes

Select this part when high-performance graphics or PCIe connectivity are not required. It is suitable for applications needing robust real-time processing via the Cortex-M4 alongside Linux-based application execution on the Cortex-A9. Consider alternative packages if higher pin counts or different form factors are needed.

Part Context

This component belongs to the NXP i.MX 6SoloX family, designed for heterogeneous processing in automotive environments. It shares the same core architecture as other SoloX variants but differs in peripheral availability and packaging. It is distinct from the consumer and industrial temperature grade versions.

Replacement Considerations

MCIMX6X1AVO08AB is a compatible substitute with identical electrical specifications and feature set, differing only in silicon revision maskset (2N19K/3N19K vs 4N19K). Verify maskset requirements before substitution.
