• Processing Speed Listed device speed: 209 MHz.
• Memory Controllers Integrated controllers for DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR2 and LPDDR3 memory types enable flexible DRAM choices for performance and power trade-offs.
• Display and Graphics Includes LCD and HDMI-CEC display interface controllers and on-chip graphics acceleration for user-interface and multimedia tasks.
• Connectivity and I/O On-chip Ethernet 10/100 Mbps, multiple USB 2.0 ports (including USB 2.0 OTG + PHY), and CAN support a range of wired networking and peripheral options.
• Security ARM TrustZone (ARM TZ) security feature provides hardware-assisted isolation for secure execution domains.
• Package and Mounting 448-LFBGA (18×18 mm) surface-mount package supports compact, high-density board designs.
• Operating Range Rated for operation from -40 °C to 125 °C to support deployment across a wide thermal envelope.
• Environmental Compliance RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded Control Systems Dual A7 cores with an M4 coprocessor and multiple memory interfaces suit general embedded control and application-processing tasks.
• Human‑Machine Interfaces (HMI) LCD and HDMI-CEC display controllers plus graphics acceleration enable responsive user interfaces and basic multimedia display functions.
• Connected Devices Integrated Ethernet, USB and CAN support wired connectivity and peripheral integration for connected embedded products.
• Industrial Electronics Extended -40 °C to 125 °C operating range and surface-mount LFBGA package are appropriate for compact, temperature-challenging deployments.

Unique Advantages

• Heterogeneous processing Separate application (Cortex-A7) and real-time (Cortex-M4) cores allow task separation for deterministic control alongside application workloads.
• Flexible memory options Support for DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR2 and LPDDR3 simplifies board-level memory selection to match performance and power needs.
• Integrated display and graphics Built-in display controllers and graphics acceleration reduce the need for external display engines, shrinking BOM and board area.
• Broad connectivity Ethernet, multiple USB ports (including OTG + PHY) and CAN provide a wide I/O set for networking and peripheral integration without extra host controllers.
• Extended thermal capability Operation from -40 °C to 125 °C supports use in thermally demanding environments.
• Compact packaging 448-LFBGA (18×18) enables high-density designs while retaining a robust pin count for peripheral routing.
