MIMX8QM6AVUFFABR

Overview

The MIMX8QM6AVUFFABR is an i.MX 8QuadMax automotive-grade application processor featuring eight cores: two Cortex-A72, four Cortex-A53, and two Cortex-M4F. It includes dual GC7000XSVX GPUs, a HiFi4 DSP, and a VPU supporting 4K H.265 decode. The device operates at -40°C to +125°C in a 29x29 mm FCPBGA package.

Feature Summary

• Automotive AEC-Q100 qualification for high reliability
• Dual independent GPU subsystems with Vulkan support
• Integrated Tensilica HiFi 4 DSP for audio processing
• Failover-ready display controllers with SafeAssure technology

Applications

• Automotive infotainment systems
• Digital instrument clusters
• Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS)
• Vehicle gateway platforms

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific SCFW version required for your BSP release before integration. Confirm that the lidded FCPBGA package matches your thermal design. Ensure the ordering suffix aligns with the exact silicon revision and feature set needed for your hardware design.

Selection Notes

Select this part over the MIMX8QM5 variant if a dedicated HiFi4 DSP is required for offloading audio tasks. Verify that the system memory interface supports LPDDR4 @1600 MHz. Check peripheral availability against the I/O muxing constraints defined in the reference manual.

Part Context

This component belongs to the NXP i.MX 8QuadMax family, designed specifically for demanding automotive applications. It provides a heterogeneous computing architecture combining high-performance application cores with real-time microcontrollers and specialized multimedia accelerators.

Replacement Considerations

MIMX8QM5AVUFFABR lacks the integrated HiFi4 DSP found in the MIMX8QM6 variant.
