Key Features

• Core & Performance  ARM926EJ‑S 32‑bit core up to 400 MHz with 16 KB instruction and 16 KB data caches and an MMU; internal 133 MHz multi‑layer bus and DMA support sustain high peripheral throughput.
• Memory & Storage  On‑chip memory includes a 128‑KB internal ROM (standard boot) and 32‑KB internal SRAM, plus a 32‑bit External Bus Interface supporting LPDDR, LPDDR2, DDR2, SDR and SRAM. Integrated MLC/SLC NAND controller with programmable multibit ECC (PMECC) is provided for robust flash storage.
• Display & User Interface  LCD controller and resistive touchscreen controller support development of graphical human‑machine interfaces and embedded display applications.
• Connectivity & Peripherals  Dual USB 2.0 full‑speed ports (Host and Device), multiple UARTs, SPI, I2C and SDIO interfaces offer a broad set of I/O for connectivity and peripheral expansion.
• Security & Crypto  On‑chip hardware accelerators support AES (up to 256‑bit) and FIPS‑180‑2 compliant SHA1/SHA256, complemented by a True Random Number Generator for key generation and secure protocols.
• System & Power Management  Integrated power management with clock gating, shutdown controller, watchdog timer, RTC and low‑power oscillators to optimize active and standby power consumption.
• Package & Environmental  217‑LFBGA (15×15) surface‑mount package, industrial grade operation from ‑40°C to +85°C, and RoHS compliance for regulated environments.
• Additional Interfaces  External Bus Interface (EBI/EMI) support for flexible system integration.
• Graphics Acceleration  No dedicated graphics acceleration; display handling is via the integrated LCD and touchscreen controllers.

Typical Applications

• Industrial HMI and Control Panels  Integrated LCD and touchscreen controllers plus industrial temperature range make it suitable for human‑machine interfaces and operator panels.
• Embedded Storage and Data Loggers  NAND controller with PMECC and wide external memory support enable reliable local storage for logging and archival applications.
• Connectivity Gateways and USB Devices  Dual full‑speed USB ports, SDIO and multiple serial interfaces support peripheral connectivity and data transfer in instrumentation and gateway systems.
• Secure Embedded Systems  On‑chip AES/SHA accelerators and TRNG provide cryptographic building blocks for secure boot, authentication and encrypted communications.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated MPU with rich peripherals: Reduces external components by combining core, memory interfaces, display controllers and multiple serial buses in one device.
• Broad external memory support: Native support for LPDDR/DDR2/SDR and SRAM enables flexible memory architectures for performance or cost optimization.
• Built‑in security engines: Hardware AES and SHA accelerators plus TRNG simplify implementation of encryption and secure key management.
• Industrial readiness: 217‑LFBGA package and ‑40°C to +85°C operating range target robust deployments in industrial environments.
• System throughput and DMA: Multi‑layer bus with DMA channels and on‑chip SRAM supports high data rates between core and peripherals.
• Compact SMT package: 0.8 mm ball pitch LFBGA reduces PCB area while supporting surface‑mount assembly.
