NXP Semiconductors i.MX 6SoloX Arm Processor

NXP i.MX 6SoloX Processors feature heterogeneous processing with Arm® Cortex®-A9 and Cortex®-M4 cores. The i.MX 6SoloX is designed to enable secure and connected homes and vehicles for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The i.MX 6SoloX processors are part of NXP’s EdgeVerse™ edge computing platform. The i.MX 6SoloX uses both the Cortex-A9 and Cortex-M4 cores. This feature provides the flexibility of a chip that can run a sophisticated OS with the Cortex-A9 and provides real-time responsiveness and system control with the Cortex-M4 core. The NXP i.MX 6SoloX incorporates four independently controlled resource domains for maximum effectiveness and security when portioning system resources such as memory and peripherals.

Features

2D and 3D graphics processing unit (GPU) for enhanced HMI development
Flexible boot options, including support for quad SPI and raw NAND and a memory controller that interfaces to both DDR3 and low power DDR2
Dual-port Gigabit Ethernet with audio-video bridging (AVB) for quality-of-service in automotive and other applications with enhanced traffic shaping and packet prioritization
Cortex-A9 at 800MHz to 1GHz to run open OS or RTOS
Cortex-M4 at 200MHz for real-time response, system control / CAN messaging, and low-power system monitoring

Resource domain controller (RDC) enforces safe sharing of peripherals/memory
