• Display and UI  Display interface controllers for keyboard, LCD and touchscreen enable human‑machine interfaces and graphical displays.
• Connectivity  Integrated 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (1) and USB 2.0 with HSIC provide standard wired networking and host/device connectivity.
• Security  Comprehensive security feature set including ARM TrustZone (TZ), boot security, cryptography engines, RTIC, secure fusebox, secure JTAG, secure memory and secure RTC for protected system deployments.
• Power and I/O  3.3 V I/O voltage signaling for standard embedded interfaces.
• Graphics Acceleration  Onboard graphics acceleration to support UI rendering and multimedia tasks.
• Package and Mounting  289‑TFBGA (14×14) supplier device package, surface mount, suitable for compact embedded board designs.
• Industrial Grade Operation  Operating temperature range −40 °C to 85 °C for industrial environments.
• Additional Interfaces  Support for common peripheral interfaces such as I²C to connect sensors and system peripherals.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control & Automation  Deterministic 32‑bit processing, industrial temperature rating and wired networking support centralized and distributed control tasks.
• Human‑Machine Interfaces (HMI)  LCD and touchscreen controllers together with graphics acceleration enable responsive, graphical operator interfaces.
• Secure Embedded Systems  TrustZone and onboard cryptography make this MPU suitable for applications that require secure boot and authenticated firmware.
• Networked Edge Devices  10/100 Mbps Ethernet plus USB connectivity support edge gateways and networked embedded appliances.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated SIP memory options: Combination of MPU with DDR2/LPDDR2 memory options reduces PCB routing complexity and board area.
• Robust security suite: Hardware security features including ARM TZ, secure JTAG and secure fusebox provide layered protection for firmware and data.
• Industrial temperature range: −40 °C to 85 °C specification supports deployment in harsher environments without additional thermal qualification.
• Rich peripheral mix: Ethernet, USB 2.0 + HSIC, I²C and display controllers reduce the need for external bridge components.
• Graphics and multimedia acceleration: NEON MPE and graphics acceleration assist responsive UIs and media tasks while offloading the CPU.
