MIMX8DL1AVNFZBA

The MIMX8DL1AVNFZBA is an NXP Semiconductors i.MX 8DL series microprocessor in a 388-LBGA (15×15) surface-mount package. It combines a dual 64-bit application core configuration with an ARM® Cortex®-M4F coprocessor to address both application-level and real-time tasks.

Targeted at embedded and industrial applications, this device integrates multiple memory interfaces and a broad set of on-chip communications and audio/peripheral interfaces to support networking, communication gateways, control systems, and real-time processing use cases.

Key Features

• Core Architecture  Dual 2-core, 64-bit application processing paired with an ARM® Cortex®-M4F coprocessor for real-time workloads.
• Memory Interfaces  Support for LPDDR4 and DDR3L, 2× Quad SPI or 1× Octal FlexSPI, eMMC 5.1, RAW NAND and SD 3.0 for flexible system and boot memory configurations.
• High‑Speed Connectivity  Integrated PCIe (1-lane, PCIe 1.0/2.0 with PCIe 3.0 capable support noted in the datasheet), 1× 1Gb Ethernet with AVB and TSN, 2× USB 2.0 + PHY, and 3× CAN/CAN‑FD interfaces.
• Peripheral I/O  Multiple serial and audio interfaces including 6× UARTs, 6× I2C channels (including PMIC and M4F-dedicated I2C), 4× SAI audio interfaces, SPDIF Tx/Rx, 4× PWM channels, 4× LPSPI and a 6-channel ADC.
• System Control and Boot  On-chip system control unit for power/clocks/reset and board-level SCU firmware requirements (minimum SCFW release indicated in the datasheet).
• Packaging & Mounting  Supplier device package: 388-LBGA (15×15), surface-mount mounting type suitable for compact embedded PCB designs.
• Standards & Compliance  RoHS compliant.
• Graphics  Graphics acceleration: No (no dedicated graphics acceleration on this device).

Typical Applications

• Industrial Control and Automation  Dual 64-bit cores plus an M4F coprocessor and multiple field busses (CAN/CAN‑FD) provide processing and real-time I/O for machine control and automation nodes.
• Embedded Networking and Gateway Appliances  1Gb Ethernet with AVB/TSN, PCIe, USB and CAN support enable networked gateways, protocol bridges and communication concentrators.
• Real‑Time Sensing and Control  The Cortex‑M4F coprocessor and multiple ADC/PWM channels support deterministic signal processing and motor or sensor control tasks.
• Audio and Multimedia Interfaces  Integrated SAI interfaces and SPDIF Tx/Rx support audio capture and playback functions for embedded audio systems.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated I/O: On-chip PCIe, Ethernet, USB, CAN and multi-channel serial/audio interfaces reduce external chipset requirements and simplify board design.
• Heterogeneous compute: Dual 64-bit application cores combined with an ARM® Cortex®-M4F coprocessor let designers split high-level applications from real-time control tasks.
• Flexible memory and boot options: Support for LPDDR4/DDR3L, FlexSPI (Quad/Octal), eMMC 5.1, RAW NAND and SD 3.0 enables varied memory architectures and fast boot configurations.
• Industrial connectivity: 1Gb Ethernet with AVB/TSN and multiple CAN ports provide robust networking and time-sensitive communication for embedded systems.
• Compact surface-mount package: 388-LBGA (15×15) package provides a small footprint for space-constrained designs.
• Documented system firmware requirement: Datasheet notes System Controller Firmware (SCFW) minimum release requirements, supporting predictable integration into BSPs and firmware workflows.
