Designed for embedded systems, the device delivers on-system integration with multiple memory controller options, display controllers, and a range of connectivity interfaces while supporting an extended operating temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C.

Key Features

• Core and Co-processor – ARM® Cortex®-A7 main processor with 2 cores (32-bit) and ARM® Cortex®-M4 co-processor for real-time tasks; listed core speed value: 209 MHz.
• Memory Support – Integrated controllers supporting DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR2 and LPDDR3 memory types for flexible system memory choices.
• Display and Graphics – Built-in LCD and HDMI-CEC display controllers plus graphics acceleration to support user interfaces and multimedia display functions.
• Connectivity – Wired interfaces including 10/100 Mbps Ethernet (1), multiple USB 2.0 ports (2) plus USB 2.0 OTG with PHY (3), and CAN for robust peripheral and network connections.
• Security – ARM TrustZone (ARM TZ) security feature for hardware-supported secure execution partitions.
• Package and Mounting – 257-TFBGA supplier device package (10 × 10 mm) in a surface-mount format for compact board designs.
• Operating Range and Compliance – Extended operating temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C and RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Embedded HMI and Display Systems – Leverage the LCD and HDMI-CEC controllers with graphics acceleration to drive user interfaces and multimedia displays.
• Networked Embedded Devices – Use integrated Ethernet and multiple USB interfaces for connected appliance and gateway designs requiring standard LAN and USB connectivity.
• Real-Time Control and Sensor Hubs – Combine the Cortex-A7 application cores with the Cortex-M4 coprocessor and CAN interface for deterministic control and sensor integration.
• Low- to Mid-Performance Multimedia – Employ the graphics acceleration and display controllers to implement compact multimedia endpoints and operator displays.

Unique Advantages

• Dual-processor architecture: Separation of application-level processing (dual Cortex-A7) and real-time control (Cortex-M4) helps simplify task partitioning and firmware design.
• Flexible memory options: Support for DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR2 and LPDDR3 enables designers to match memory technology to performance, power and cost targets.
• Integrated display and graphics: On-chip LCD and HDMI-CEC controllers plus graphics acceleration reduce external component count for HMI implementations.
• Broad connectivity set: Ethernet, multiple USB ports including OTG with PHY, and CAN provide a wide range of interface choices for networked and industrial systems.
• Extended temperature capability: Rated for operation from -40 °C to 125 °C, suitable for designs requiring wide thermal tolerance.
• Compact BGA package: The 257-TFBGA (10×10) surface-mount package supports space-constrained board layouts while providing high pin density.
