Key Features

• CPU Architecture  ARM® Cortex®-A53 application cores plus an ARM® Cortex®-M4F real-time core provide a 3-core, 64-bit processing architecture for mixed application and control workloads.
• Multimedia and DSP  Multimedia acceleration with NEON and a Hi-Fi4 DSP supports compute-heavy audio and multimedia processing tasks.
• Memory Interfaces  Integrated controllers for DDR3L SDRAM and LPDDR4 DRAM allow flexible memory configurations for performance and capacity.
• Display and Vision I/O  Display interface controllers include LCD and LVDS plus camera and display serial interfaces (MIPI-CSI, MIPI-DSI) for advanced HMI and vision designs.
• High-Speed Networking  Dual 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports provide Gigabit networking capabilities for connectivity and industrial communications.
• USB Connectivity  One USB 3.0 OTG + PHY and one USB 2.0 OTG + PHY deliver flexible host/device connectivity options.
• Security and Crypto  On-chip security features include 3DES, DES, MD5, SHA, ARM TrustZone (ARM TZ), A-HAB and CAAM to support secure boot and cryptographic operations.
• Graphics Acceleration  Dedicated graphics acceleration supports richer user interfaces and GPU-assisted rendering.
• Mounting  Surface mount package for standard PCB assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Automation  Leverage dual Gigabit Ethernet and the Cortex-M4F for deterministic control and real-time communication in factory and process control systems.
• Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI)  Use display controllers (LCD, LVDS, MIPI-DSI) and graphics acceleration to drive responsive, high-quality operator displays.
• Vision and Imaging  MIPI-CSI and multimedia/DSP capabilities support camera processing, machine vision preprocessing and embedded analytics.
• Networking and Edge Appliances  Combine multicore processing, Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 to implement gateways, routers and edge compute nodes with secure connectivity.

Unique Advantages

• Multicore Flexibility: A 3-core, 64-bit architecture (Cortex-A53 + Cortex-M4F) lets designers split heavy application processing and deterministic tasks across dedicated cores.
• Integrated Multimedia and DSP: NEON and Hi-Fi4 DSP support lowers system-level complexity for audio, image and media processing workloads.
• Broad I/O Support: Native support for multiple display interfaces, camera inputs, USB and dual Gigabit Ethernet reduces external component count and simplifies board design.
• Hardware Security: Built-in cryptographic engines and secure boot capabilities provide a foundation for protected firmware and data handling.
• Memory Interface Options: DDR3L and LPDDR4 controllers enable a range of memory choices for cost, power and performance trade-offs.
