MIMX8MN5DVTJZAA

Overview

The MIMX8MN5DVTJZAA is an i.MX 8M Nano QuadLite application processor featuring four Arm Cortex-A53 cores operating at 1.5 GHz and one Cortex-M7 core running up to 750 MHz. It utilizes a 14x14 mm FCBGA package with a 0.5 mm pitch. The device supports LPDDR4-3200, DDR4-2400, and DDR3L-1600 memory interfaces. Connectivity includes one Gigabit Ethernet controller, one USB 2.0 OTG, three uSDHC interfaces, and multiple serial peripherals. It operates within a consumer temperature range of 0°C to 95°C.

Feature Summary

• Quad Cortex-A53 platform for high-performance general-purpose processing
• Cortex-M7 core dedicated to real-time control and low-power management
• Integrated multimedia capabilities including MIPI DSI and CSI interfaces
• Comprehensive security features including TrustZone and CAAM

Applications

• Consumer electronics requiring efficient multimedia processing
• Industrial IoT gateways utilizing the Cortex-M7 for real-time tasks
• Smart home devices leveraging integrated connectivity options
• Edge computing nodes requiring secure boot and data protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific silicon revision and fusing options required for your design, as these are determined by the ordering suffix. Confirm that the consumer temperature rating (0°C to 95°C) aligns with your operational environment. Ensure compatibility with the 14x14 mm FCBGA footprint during PCB layout. Cross-reference the latest errata document for any known hardware revisions or workarounds applicable to this part number before finalizing production plans.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a quad-core A53 configuration is needed without the GPU found in the standard Nano variant. It provides a balance of processing power and cost for applications where graphics acceleration is handled by external components or software. Consider the available memory interfaces and peripheral count against system requirements. Verify that the consumer temperature range meets the deployment conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the i.MX 8M Nano family, designed for energy-efficient multimedia and IoT applications. It shares the same package and pinout as other Nano derivatives but differs in internal module availability. The 'QuadLite' designation indicates the presence of four A53 cores while excluding the 3D GPU block present in higher-tier models like the MIMX8MN6 series.

Replacement Considerations

MIMX8MN6DVTJZAA offers identical specifications but includes a 3D GPU.
