Product details
Overview
MK10DN64VFT5 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale) is a 50 MHz ARM Cortex-M4 core MCU with DSP instructions, 64 KB program flash, 16 KB RAM, and -40°C to 105°C industrial temperature rating. It integrates 16-bit SAR ADC, three UARTs, SPI, I²C, I²S, eight-channel PWM timer, RTC, and low-power modes for embedded control in motor drives and industrial sensors.
For engineers reviewing the MK10DN64VFT5 datasheet, MK10DN64VFT5 pinout, MK10DN64VFT5 application, or MK10DN64VFT5 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to 48-pin QFN (7 mm × 7 mm), functional pin roles, real-world use cases, and two validated alternative parts - all extracted from the official K10P48M50SF0 Rev. 4 datasheet.
Technical Context
The MK10DN64VFT5 implements an ARM Cortex-M4 core with hardware DSP extensions and operates at up to 50 MHz. Its clock system includes dual oscillators (3–32 MHz main, 32 kHz RTC), a multi-purpose clock generator (MCG), and configurable PLL paths supporting FEI/FBE/BLPE modes.
It features a flexible memory architecture with 64 KB on-chip flash, 16 KB SRAM, and no FlexMemory ('N' suffix). Peripheral integration includes four DMA channels, hardware CRC, 128-bit unique ID, two analog comparators with 6-bit DACs, and eight-channel motor-control/PWM timer with quadrature decoder support.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Core | ARM Cortex-M4 with DSP, no FPU - enables deterministic real-time signal processing in motor control and sensor fusion without floating-point overhead. |
| Max Clock Frequency | 50 MHz - supports real-time loop execution ≤20 ns resolution; bus and flash clocks rated to 50 MHz and 25 MHz respectively. |
| Flash / RAM | 64 KB program flash, 16 KB SRAM - sufficient for bootloader + application firmware with RTOS and communication stacks in compact industrial nodes. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.71 V to 3.6 V - compatible with single Li-ion, 3.3 V rail, or wide-input DC-DC outputs without level-shifting. |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +105°C - qualified for under-hood automotive subsystems, factory-floor PLC modules, and outdoor metering equipment. |
| Analog Peripherals | 16-bit SAR ADC (up to 1 MSPS), two CMP+6-bit DAC units - supports high-resolution current sensing and closed-loop analog feedback without external converters. |
| Low-Power Modes | VLLS0 (0.37 µA), VLLS3 (1.5 µA), LLS (2.1 µA) - enables battery-powered operation for >10 years in wake-on-event sensor nodes. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 48-pin QFN (7 mm × 7 mm, FT suffix), 0.5 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad. RoHS-compliant, moisture sensitivity level 3 (MSL3).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD, VSS | Digital power supply and ground | Must be decoupled locally with 100 nF ceramic + 4.7 µF tantalum per VDD pair; VSS pins are dedicated ground returns for noise isolation. |
| VDDA, VSSA | Analog power and ground | Separated analog domain requires independent filtering; differential voltage between VDD/VDDA must stay within ±0.1 V to prevent ADC/CMP offset drift. |
| EXTAL/XTAL | Main crystal oscillator input/output | Supports 3–32 MHz fundamental-mode crystals; internal load caps configurable via MCG_C2 register - eliminates external capacitors in cost-sensitive designs. |
| RTC_CLKIN | 32 kHz RTC oscillator input | Accepts external 32.768 kHz crystal or CMOS clock; enables calendar timekeeping with <±5 ppm accuracy over full temperature range. |
| PTA0–PTA31, PTB0–PTB15, etc. | Multi-function GPIO ports | Each pin supports up to 8 alternate functions (UART0_TX, SPI0_SCK, CMP0_OUT, etc.) via PORTx_PCRn register; slew rate and drive strength configurable per pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Hardware CRC module | Accelerates checksum calculation for firmware OTA updates and CAN/LIN message validation - reduces CPU load by >95% vs. software CRC-32. |
| Eight-channel TPM timer | Supports complementary PWM outputs with dead-time insertion and fault protection - directly drives 3-phase inverter gate drivers without external logic. |
| Low-leakage wakeup unit | Enables wake-from-VLLS0 on GPIO, RTC alarm, or comparator event within 70 µs - critical for ultra-low-power sensor edge nodes. |
| Programmable delay block (PDB) | Triggers ADC conversions or PWM reloads with sub-microsecond jitter - synchronizes sampling to motor commutation zero-crossings. |
| Unique 128-bit chip ID | Factory-programmed, unalterable identifier used for secure device authentication and license binding in industrial firmware deployments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MK10DX64VFT5 | Includes FlexMemory (32 KB FlexNVM + 2 KB FlexRAM); identical core, package, and peripherals. | Required when EEPROM emulation or data logging to nonvolatile storage is needed - not drop-in replaceable due to different memory map and initialization sequence. | Select MK10DX64VFT5 only if runtime reprogrammable data storage is mandatory; otherwise MK10DN64VFT5 offers lower cost and simpler BOM. |
| MK20DX128VLH7 | 128 KB flash, 16 KB RAM, 72 MHz max frequency, 64-pin LQFP (7 mm × 7 mm), same Kinetis K10 family ISA and peripheral set. | Suitable for applications needing larger code space or higher throughput; pinout differs - requires PCB redesign and signal mapping verification. | Choose MK20DX128VLH7 when firmware size exceeds 64 KB or 50 MHz is insufficient; verify GPIO remapping and clock tree configuration before migration. |
Compared with MK10DX64VFT5, MK10DN64VFT5 removes FlexMemory to reduce cost and power leakage, making it optimal for fixed-function control. Against MK20DX128VLH7, it trades flash size and speed for smaller footprint and lower static current - ideal for space-constrained, battery-aware designs.

What is the maximum operating frequency of the MK10DN64VFT5?
The MK10DN64VFT5 operates at up to 50 MHz, as confirmed in the K10P48M50SF0 datasheet Section 5.3.1. This applies to both core and system clocks; flash clock is rated to 25 MHz. The '5' in the part number suffix explicitly denotes 50 MHz capability, and the device achieves 1.25 Dhrystone MIPS per MHz at this frequency.
Does the MK10DN64VFT5 include FlexMemory?
No, the MK10DN64VFT5 does not include FlexMemory. The 'N' in the part number indicates program flash only (64 KB), with no FlexNVM or FlexRAM. This is confirmed in Section 2.3 of the K10P48M50SF0 datasheet, where 'N' is defined as "Program flash only" and 'X' as "Program flash and FlexMemory."
What package type does the MK10DN64VFT5 use?
The MK10DN64VFT5 uses a 48-pin QFN package (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch), identified by the 'FT' suffix per the K10 part numbering scheme in Section 2.3 of the K10P48M50SF0 datasheet. It features an exposed thermal pad and complies with MSL3 handling requirements.
What is the operating temperature range for the MK10DN64VFT5?
The MK10DN64VFT5 is rated for -40°C to +105°C ambient temperature, indicated by the 'V' in its part number per Section 2.3 of the K10P48M50SF0 datasheet. This industrial-grade rating is validated across all electrical specifications including flash programming, ADC linearity, and low-power mode currents.
How many UART interfaces does the MK10DN64VFT5 support?
The MK10DN64VFT5 supports three UART modules, as documented in the "Communication interfaces" section of the K10P48M50SF0 datasheet. Each UART provides full-duplex asynchronous communication with programmable baud rates, parity, and stop bits - enabling simultaneous debug, host interface, and peripheral bridging.
