Product details
Overview
MCIMX6D7CVT08AC from NXP Semiconductors is an industrial-grade dual-core Arm Cortex-A9 applications processor operating at 800 MHz, integrating VPU, GPU3Dv4, GPU2Dv2, and IPUv3H for 1080p video decode/encode, OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics, and parallel camera processing. It features a 64-bit DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR2-800 memory interface and supports HDMI 1.4, MIPI CSI-2/DSI, Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe v2.0, and dual FlexCAN - deployed in rugged HMI, industrial gateways, and medical imaging systems.
For engineers reviewing the MCIMX6D7CVT08AC datasheet, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC pinout, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC application, or MCIMX6D7CVT08AC equivalent, key selection criteria include industrial temperature range (−40°C to +105°C), FCPBGA 21×21 mm package with 0.8 mm pitch, dual-core cache coherency, hardware-accelerated multimedia pipelines, and secure boot via A-HAB v4 with SHA-256 and 2048-bit RSA.
Technical Context
The MCIMX6D7CVT08AC implements two symmetric Arm Cortex-A9 cores (r2p10), each with 32 KB L1 instruction and data caches, backed by a shared 1 MB unified L2 cache managed by the Snoop Control Unit (SCU). Its memory subsystem includes boot ROM (96 KB), OCRAM (256 KB), and secure RAM (16 KB), interfacing to external DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR2 via the Multi-Mode DDR Controller (MMDC) with interleaving support.
Hardware acceleration is distributed across dedicated IP blocks: VPU handles H.264/H.263/MPEG-4 decode/encode; dual IPUv3H units perform real-time image scaling, rotation, and color-space conversion; GPU3Dv4 delivers up to 200 MTri/s with OpenCL support; and CAAM provides NIST-certified cryptographic acceleration including AES, SHA, and TRNG.

FAQ
What is the maximum supported DDR3 speed for MCIMX6D7CVT08AC?
The MCIMX6D7CVT08AC supports DDR3-1066 (533 MHz) operation via its 64-bit MMDC interface. This enables sustained memory bandwidth of up to 8.5 GB/s, sufficient for dual 1080p display buffers and real-time video processing pipelines. JEDEC-compliant termination and layout rules must be followed to achieve stable operation at this rate.
Does MCIMX6D7CVT08AC include hardware support for secure boot?
Yes, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC implements Advanced High Assurance Boot (A-HAB v4) with SHA-256 hashing, 2048-bit RSA signature verification, and version control. It validates boot images stored in eMMC, NAND, or SPI NOR before loading into OCRAM, ensuring firmware integrity from power-on reset through kernel launch.
Can MCIMX6D7CVT08AC drive multiple displays simultaneously?
Yes, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC supports up to four concurrent displays via its integrated LCD controller, HDMI 1.4 transmitter, LVDS serializer, and MIPI DSI interface. Total pixel throughput reaches 450 Mpixels/sec at 24 bpp, enabling configurations such as dual 1080p panels plus HDMI output - all driven by dedicated IPUv3H and GPU resources without CPU load.
What camera interfaces does MCIMX6D7CVT08AC support?
MCIMX6D7CVT08AC integrates both parallel and serial camera interfaces: a 20-bit parallel port supporting up to 240 MHz pixel clock, and a MIPI CSI-2 receiver with four data lanes capable of 1 Gbps/lane (3-lane mode) or 800 Mbps/lane (4-lane mode). Both interfaces feed directly into dual IPUv3H units for hardware-accelerated preprocessing.
Is MCIMX6D7CVT08AC pin-compatible with other i.MX 6Dual variants?
Yes, MCIMX6D7CVT08AC shares identical FCPBGA 521-ball pinout and footprint with all i.MX 6Dual variants in the VT package (e.g., MCIMX6D6AVT08AC, MCIMX6D7CVT08AD). This enables drop-in replacement for speed, temperature grade, or feature-set upgrades without PCB redesign - provided power delivery and thermal management meet the highest-spec variant's requirements.
