Product details
Overview
MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB from NXP Semiconductors is a single-core Arm Cortex-A7 application processor operating at 528 MHz, featuring dual CAN, dual 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, LCD/CSI interfaces, two 12-bit ADCs (10 total channels), and basic hardware security (TrustZone, AES-128, SHA-1/256 acceleration). It targets cost-sensitive, power-efficient embedded systems such as industrial HMIs and IoT gateways requiring integrated multimedia and connectivity.
For engineers reviewing the MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB datasheet, MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB pinout, MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB application, or MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB equivalent, key selection considerations include its 14 × 14 mm MAPBGA-0.8 mm pitch package, commercial temperature range (0 to +95 °C), dual FlexCAN support, and absence of EPDC - distinguishing it from EPD-capable variants like MCIMX6Y7DVM05AB.
Technical Context
The MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB implements a single Arm Cortex-A7 core with 32 KB L1 instruction and data caches, 128 KB unified L2 cache, NEON MPE coprocessor, and TrustZone security. Its memory subsystem supports DDR3/DDR3L/LPDDR2, NAND (with up to 40-bit BCH ECC), NOR, eMMC, and Quad SPI.
Peripherals include two 10/100 Ethernet controllers (IEEE 1588 compliant), dual FlexCAN 2.0B modules, parallel LCDIF and CSI interfaces, three SAI audio interfaces, ESAI, SPDIF, eight UARTs, four I²C, four eCSPI, eight PWM, and ASRC for asynchronous sample rate conversion - all routed via a configurable IOMUXC with shared pin functionality.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar application processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MCIMX6Y2DVM09AB | Same feature set but rated for 900 MHz operation; higher dynamic power and thermal envelope. | Suitable for compute-intensive tasks (e.g., video transcoding, multi-threaded gateway services) where 528 MHz is insufficient. | Select MCIMX6Y2DVM09AB only if sustained >528 MHz performance is validated under thermal constraints; otherwise, MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB offers better power efficiency. |
| MCIMX6Y1DVM05AB | Lacks LCD/CSI and second CAN; retains dual Ethernet, USB OTG x2, and same 528 MHz clock. | Targeted at headless networking nodes (e.g., Modbus-to-Ethernet bridges) where display/camera are unnecessary. | Choose MCIMX6Y1DVM05AB to reduce BOM cost and simplify layout when display and imaging peripherals are omitted. |
Compared with MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB, MCIMX6Y2DVM09AB trades thermal headroom for peak compute, while MCIMX6Y1DVM05AB sacrifices display/camera capability for lower system cost - making MCIMX6Y2DVM05AB the optimal balance for HMI and gateway designs requiring both visual interface and dual-fieldbus I/O.
