MC9328MX21CVM

The MC9328MX21CVM is an i.MX21 series microprocessor featuring a single ARM926EJ-S 32-bit core running at up to 266 MHz. It integrates system-level peripherals and memory interfaces tailored for portable and handheld product designs.

Designed for embedded applications, this industrial‑qualified MPU combines core processing, display and multimedia interfaces, and multiple I/O options in a compact 289‑pin PBGA package to help simplify system design and reduce board-level integration.

Key Features

• Core  ARM926EJ-S single 32‑bit core operating at 266 MHz.
• Memory and Storage  Integrated SDRAM controller; datasheet references on‑chip NAND flash controller with ECC to support cost‑sensitive nonvolatile storage.
• Display and Multimedia  LCD controller and display interfaces plus a video accelerator module referenced in the device series documentation to support multimedia and user interface tasks.
• Connectivity and I/O  Multiple USB ports (USB 1.x (2) per product data) and support for USB On‑The‑Go indicated in the series documentation; additional interfaces include 1‑Wire, synchronous serial interfaces, UART and I2C.
• Peripheral Support  Human interface and sensor interfaces such as keypad support and a CMOS sensor interface (noted in the series datasheet) for camera and imaging integrations.
• System Integration  On‑chip modules for system control, clocks and power management plus DMA and timers as described in the i.MX21 technical data to simplify system-level design.
• Package and Mounting  289‑pin PBGA (289‑LFBGA / 289‑PBGA 17×17 footprint) with surface‑mount packaging for compact, high‑density PCB layouts.
• Operating Range and Qualification  Industrial qualification with an operating temperature range of −40 °C to 85 °C and RoHS compliance.

Typical Applications

• Portable and Handheld Devices  Suited for smartphones and handheld products where integrated display and multimedia interfaces reduce external component count.
• Embedded Displays and HMIs  LCD controller and keypad support enable user interface control for portable HMIs and control panels.
• Multimedia and Imaging Products  Video acceleration and a CMOS sensor interface in the device family support basic multimedia and imaging workflows in compact designs.
• Industrial Embedded Systems  Industrial temperature grading and integrated I/O make the device applicable to ruggedized portable instrumentation and field devices.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated processor and peripherals: ARM926EJ-S core plus on‑chip display, USB and memory controllers reduce external components and simplify BOM.
• Compact package for dense designs: 289‑pin PBGA (17×17) enables high I/O count in a compact surface‑mount footprint.
• Industrial temperature qualification: Rated for −40 °C to 85 °C to support applications across wide environmental conditions.
• Storage flexibility: SDRAM controller and series support for NAND flash with ECC enable cost‑sensitive nonvolatile storage options.
• Broad I/O mix: USB ports, 1‑Wire, UART, I2C and synchronous serial interfaces provide connectivity options for sensors, peripherals and host interfaces.
• RoHS compliant: Meets RoHS requirements for environmentally conscious designs.
