NXP Semiconductors MIMXRT1061DVJ6A

Overview

MIMXRT1061DVJ6A from NXP Semiconductors is a 600 MHz Arm Cortex-M7 crossover processor with 1 MB on-chip RAM (512 KB OCRAM + 512 KB TCM), integrated DCDC/LDO power management, dual FlexSPI interfaces, and dual 10/100M Ethernet controllers. It supports eDMA, four FlexPWM modules (16-channel total), two 12-bit ADCs (20-channel combined), and HAB/DCP/BEE security acceleration - deployed in industrial HMI and motor control systems requiring deterministic real-time response.

FAQ

What is the maximum operating frequency of the MIMXRT1061DVJ6A?

The MIMXRT1061DVJ6A operates at a maximum core frequency of 600 MHz, as specified in Table 10 ("Operating ranges") of the i.MX RT1060 CEC datasheet Rev. 4. This frequency is guaranteed across the commercial temperature range (0 to +95°C) with proper power supply decoupling and thermal management. The MIMXRT1061DVJ6A achieves this using its integrated DCDC regulator and optimized clock tree, eliminating need for external frequency synthesis.

Does the MIMXRT1061DVJ6A include LCD or camera interface support?

No, the MIMXRT1061DVJ6A explicitly excludes LCDIF, CSI, and PXP modules as stated in Table 1 of the datasheet. This distinguishes it from the MIMXRT1062DVJ6A variant, which includes those peripherals. The MIMXRT1061DVJ6A retains all other core features - including dual Ethernet, dual FlexSPI, and full security acceleration - making it ideal for non-display industrial control applications.

What package type and dimensions does the MIMXRT1061DVJ6A use?

The MIMXRT1061DVJ6A uses a 196-pin MAPBGA package measuring 12 × 12 mm with 0.8 mm ball pitch, as confirmed in Table 1 and Section 6.2 ("12 x 12 mm package information") of the i.MX RT1060 CEC datasheet. This package includes an exposed thermal pad and is qualified for commercial temperature operation (0 to +95°C junction).

How much on-chip RAM does the MIMXRT1061DVJ6A provide, and how is it allocated?

The MIMXRT1061DVJ6A integrates 1 MB of on-chip RAM, partitioned as 512 KB OCRAM and 512 KB TCM (I-TCM + D-TCM). As described in Section 1.1, this allocation is flexibly configurable in 32 KB increments via FlexRAM controller - allowing developers to assign portions to instruction TCM, data TCM, or general-purpose OCRAM based on real-time latency requirements.

Which security features are implemented in hardware on the MIMXRT1061DVJ6A?

The MIMXRT1061DVJ6A includes hardware-accelerated security features: High Assurance Boot (HAB) for signed image validation, Data Co-Processor (DCP) supporting AES-128 and SHA-256, Bus Encryption Engine (BEE) for on-the-fly QSPI flash decryption, True Random Number Generator (TRNG), and Secure Non-Volatile Storage (SNVS) with secure RTC. These are confirmed in Table 1 and Section 1.1 of the datasheet.
