Product details
Overview
MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR from NXP Semiconductors is an industrial-grade dual-core Arm Cortex-A9 applications processor operating at 1.0 GHz, featuring integrated VPU, GPU3Dv4 (OpenGL ES 2.0), GPU2Dv2, and IPUv3H for 1080p video decode/encode and parallel image processing. It supports DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR2-800 memory, Gigabit Ethernet, dual CAN, MIPI CSI-2/DSI, HDMI 1.4, and SATA II - deployed in rugged HMI, industrial gateways, and medical imaging systems.
For engineers reviewing the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR datasheet, MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR pinout, MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR application, or MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR equivalent, key selection criteria include verified industrial temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), FCPBGA-624 package compatibility, dual-core DVFS support, hardware-accelerated multimedia throughput, and secure boot via CAAM + A-HABv4.
Technical Context
The MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR implements two symmetric Arm Cortex-A9 cores (r2p10), each with 32 KB L1 instruction and data caches, backed by a shared 1 MB L2 cache and SCU coherency logic. Its memory subsystem includes MMDC supporting dual-channel DDR3-1066 and LPDDR2-800 with interleaving, plus GPMI with BCH40 ECC for NAND flash up to 8 KB page size.
It integrates dedicated accelerators: VPU for H.264/VC-1/MPEG-4 decode/encode, dual IPUv3H for real-time camera pipeline processing, GPU3Dv4 delivering up to 200 MTri/s, and CAAM with NIST-certified PRNG and 16 KB secure RAM. Clocking uses eight PLLs managed by CCM, with XTALOSC and OSC32K for low-power timing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar applications processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCIMX6D7CVT08AC | Same dual-core Cortex-A9, but rated for 800 MHz max frequency and industrial grade (−40°C to +105°C); identical FCPBGA-624 package. | Lower clock headroom limits sustained multimedia throughput; suitable for cost-sensitive HMIs without 1080p60 video. | Select when thermal envelope or BOM cost constraints preclude 1.0 GHz operation, and 800 MHz meets deterministic task scheduling requirements. |
| MCIMX6Q7CVT08AC | Quad-core Cortex-A9 at 800 MHz, same industrial temp grade and package; adds third IPU and higher VPU throughput. | Higher compute density supports quad-display UIs or simultaneous 4K decode + AI inference; consumes ~18% more peak power. | Choose when application requires >2 concurrent high-resolution video pipelines or parallel real-time analytics alongside UI rendering. |
Compared with MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC trades 200 MHz clock speed for lower thermal design power, while MCIMX6Q7CVT08AC adds two CPU cores and one IPU at the cost of increased silicon area and static power - making MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR optimal for balanced performance-per-watt in space-constrained industrial edge nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR and under what conditions?
The MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR operates at a guaranteed maximum frequency of 1.0 GHz across the full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) when supplied with VDD_ARM = 1.2 V ±3% and VDD_SOC = 1.35 V ±3%. This rating assumes use of a 24 MHz crystal input for USB functionality; exceeding this clock requires verification against IMX6DQIEC Section 4.4 PLL electrical characteristics.
Does the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR support secure boot, and which cryptographic standards does it implement?
Yes, the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR implements A-HABv4 (Advanced High Assurance Boot) with SHA-256 hashing and 2048-bit RSA signature verification in boot ROM, enforced by CAAM's NIST-certified PRNG and 16 KB secure RAM. It supports encrypted image loading, fuse-based key provisioning, and runtime attestation via SNVS and TrustZone isolation.
Which display interfaces are supported simultaneously by the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR?
The MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR supports up to four display interfaces concurrently: HDMI 1.4 (up to 1080p60), single-channel LVDS (WUXGA@60Hz), parallel RGB (24-bit, up to WUXGA@60Hz), and MIPI DSI (2-lane, up to 1 Gbps). Total raw pixel throughput is capped at 450 Mpixels/sec at 24 bpp, with independent gamma and LUT control per interface.
What NAND flash configurations are validated for use with the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR's GPMI interface?
The MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR GPMI interface supports Raw MLC/SLC NAND with page sizes of 2 KB, 4 KB, and 8 KB, including BA-NAND, PBA-NAND, and LBA-NAND formats. BCH40 ECC correction is enabled for up to 40-bit error correction per 512-byte sector, validated for ONFI 2.2-compliant devices and eMMC 4.41 boot modes per IMX6DQIEC Section 4.11.
Is the MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR pin-compatible with other i.MX 6Dual variants in the same FCPBGA-624 package?
Yes, all i.MX 6Dual processors in the VT (21×21 mm FCPBGA) package - including MCIMX6D6AVT10ACR, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC, and MCIMX6D7CVT08AD - share identical ball mapping, power sequencing, and signal routing per IMX6DQIEC Section 6.2.
