MIMX8QP6AVUFFAB

The MIMX8QP6AVUFFAB is a high-integration microprocessor from NXP Semiconductors' i.MX 8QP series. It combines heterogeneous ARM cores—ARM Cortex-A53, ARM Cortex-A72 and Arm Cortex-M4F—across a 7‑core, 64‑bit architecture with core clocks up to 1.6 GHz to address demanding embedded workloads.

Designed for industrial embedded applications, this device delivers a broad set of interfaces, multimedia acceleration and on-chip security features to support networked, display-driven and multimedia systems operating across a wide temperature range.

Key Features

• Heterogeneous CPU Cluster  ARM Cortex‑A53, ARM Cortex‑A72 and Arm Cortex‑M4F cores in a 7‑core, 64‑bit configuration with core frequencies listed up to 1.6 GHz and subordinate clocks of 1.26 GHz and 266 MHz for mixed-performance tasks.
• Memory Support  Integrated LPDDR4 memory controller for high-bandwidth system memory.
• Multimedia and DSP  Multimedia DSP and NEON support plus graphics acceleration to handle visual and compute workloads.
• Display and Imaging Interfaces  Multiple display and camera interfaces including DisplayPort (DP), eDP, HDMI, LVDS, MIPI‑CSI and MIPI‑DSI for flexible HMI and vision system designs.
• High‑speed Connectivity  Dual 1 Gbps Ethernet interfaces and a mix of USB ports—USB 3.0 with PHY, USB 2.0 with PHY and USB 2.0 + HSIC—enable robust network and peripheral connectivity.
• Vehicle/Field Bus and Peripheral I/O  CANbus support and a broad set of additional interfaces for industrial device integration.
• Security and System Integrity  On-chip security features including A‑HAB, ARM TrustZone, CAAM, eFuse, true random number generator, secure memory, secure RTC, System JTAG and SNVS for hardware-rooted security.
• Package and Mounting  1313‑FCPBGA (29×29) package, 1313‑BBGA FCBGA case type, intended for surface‑mount assembly.
• Industrial Temperature Range  Qualified for operation from ‑40 °C to 125 °C to meet industrial environment requirements.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Automation  Use as the central processor in control systems and HMI units where industrial temperature range and broad I/O are required.
• Human‑Machine Interfaces (HMI)  Drive high‑resolution displays and touch panels using HDMI, eDP, LVDS or MIPI‑DSI interfaces with on‑chip graphics acceleration.
• Vision and Multimedia Processing  Leverage MIPI‑CSI, multimedia DSP and NEON support for camera input, image processing and media playback applications.
• Networked Embedded Systems  Integrate dual 1 Gbps Ethernet, USB 3.0 and CANbus connectivity for industrial gateways, edge controllers and networked devices.
