MCIMX6X3EVN10AB

Overview

The MCIMX6X3EVN10AB is a specialized application processor from the NXP i.MX 6SoloX series. It integrates an ARM Cortex-A9 core operating at 800 MHz and an ARM Cortex-M4 core running at 166 MHz. The device utilizes a 400-ball MAPBGA package with dimensions of 17x17 mm. Designed for high-performance, low-power applications, it supports LPDDR2, LVDDR3, and DDR3 memory interfaces.

Feature Summary

• Dual-core architecture combining a high-performance Cortex-A9 application processor with a real-time Cortex-M4 microcontroller
• Integrated security features including hardware authentication, secure boot, and cryptographic acceleration
• Support for multiple multimedia interfaces and display controllers suitable for complex user interfaces

Applications

• Industrial automation and control systems requiring real-time processing
• Smart home gateways and IoT edge devices
• Medical equipment with stringent security and reliability requirements

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as NXP Semiconductors, as Freescale Semiconductor was acquired by NXP. Confirm the specific suffix EVN10AB against official NXP documentation to ensure correct speed grade and package variant. Check current product status for availability and lifecycle stage before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-core solution is required to separate real-time control tasks from application processing. Ensure the design accommodates the 400-ball MAPBGA footprint and thermal requirements. Verify that the integrated peripherals meet the interface needs without requiring external controllers.

Part Context

This part belongs to the i.MX 6SoloX family, which bridges the gap between high-end i.MX 6 processors and lower-cost i.MX 6Solo/Lite variants. It is designed for applications needing both high performance and deterministic real-time response in a single chip.
