Product details
Overview
MK26FN2M0VMI18 from NXP Semiconductors is a 180 MHz ARM® Cortex®-M4F microcontroller with DSP instructions and single-precision floating-point unit, 2 MB flash, 256 KB SRAM, dual USB (HS/FS/LS OTG), two CAN interfaces, and operation across –40°C to 105°C. It targets industrial control, medical instrumentation, and automotive body electronics requiring high-integration, low-power real-time processing.
For engineers reviewing the MK26FN2M0VMI18 datasheet, MK26FN2M0VMI18 pinout, MK26FN2M0VMI18 application, or MK26FN2M0VMI18 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 169-pin MAPBGA package, FlexBus/SDRAM support, dual USB PHY integration, 116 GPIOs, and VLLS0 stop-mode current as low as 0.55 µA at –40°C to 25°C.
Technical Context
The MK26FN2M0VMI18 implements a high-performance ARM Cortex-M4F core with hardware-accelerated cryptographic functions (AES, DES, SHA) and a dedicated hardware random-number generator. Its clock system includes multiple oscillators (3–32 MHz crystal, 32 kHz low-power crystal, 48 MHz IRC) and configurable PLL/MCG modes enabling precise frequency synthesis for USB HS timing and real-time control loops.
Analog subsystem integration includes two 16-bit SAR ADCs, two 12-bit DACs, four analog comparators with embedded 6-bit DACs, and a 1.2 V internal voltage reference - all operable in low-power stop modes. Peripheral smart power management allows selective wake-up from VLPS, LLS, and VLLS modes using UART, CMP, RTC, or TSI events.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MK28FN2M0VMI18 | Same K26 family, but adds Ethernet MAC + PHY and enhanced security (TRNG, OTP), 180 MHz core, identical 2 MB/256 KB memory map. | Better suited for industrial Ethernet gateways requiring IEEE 802.3 compliance and secure boot with immutable root-of-trust. | Select MK28FN2M0VMI18 when Ethernet connectivity or higher security assurance (e.g., PSA Level 2) is required; otherwise MK26FN2M0VMI18 offers lower cost and smaller footprint. |
| STM32H743VI | ARM Cortex-M7 @ 480 MHz, 2 MB flash, 1 MB RAM, no integrated USB HS PHY, requires external PHY for 480 Mbps operation. | Higher raw compute performance but lacks dual USB PHY integration and automotive temp grade (only –40°C to +85°C). | Choose STM32H743VI for compute-intensive vision/AI edge inference; MK26FN2M0VMI18 remains optimal for USB-centric, automotive-temp, and low-power always-on applications. |
Compared with MK28FN2M0VMI18, MK26FN2M0VMI18 trades Ethernet and advanced security for lower BOM cost and identical USB/low-power capabilities; versus STM32H743VI, it delivers guaranteed automotive temperature operation, integrated USB HS PHY, and superior stop-mode current - critical for battery-backed industrial and automotive systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the MK26FN2M0VMI18?
The MK26FN2M0VMI18 operates at up to 180 MHz using its ARM Cortex-M4F core with DSP extensions and single-precision floating-point unit. This frequency is achievable under specified voltage (1.71–3.6 V) and temperature (–40°C to +105°C) conditions with appropriate clock configuration (e.g., PEE mode using external crystal and PLL). The MK26FN2M0VMI18 maintains timing integrity across its full industrial temperature range.
Does the MK26FN2M0VMI18 include an integrated USB high-speed physical layer?
Yes, the MK26FN2M0VMI18 integrates a USB high-speed (480 Mbps) PHY on-die for its USB0 controller, eliminating the need for external transceivers. This PHY supports HS/FS/LS OTG operation and complies with USB 2.0 specifications. The second USB1 controller includes a full-/low-speed transceiver only. Both interfaces are fully supported in the MK26FN2M0VMI18's 169-ball MAPBGA package.
What low-power modes does the MK26FN2M0VMI18 support, and what is its lowest active current?
The MK26FN2M0VMI18 supports seven low-power modes: RUN, WAIT, STOP, VLPR, VLPW, LLS, and VLLS. Its lowest active current is in VLLS0 mode with POR enabled: 0.55 µA (typical) at –40°C to +25°C. In this mode, the RTC, RAM, and selected wakeup sources remain functional while core clocks are halted - ideal for battery-powered edge nodes requiring decades of shelf life.
How many GPIOs does the MK26FN2M0VMI18 provide, and are they 5 V tolerant?
The MK26FN2M0VMI18 provides 116 GPIOs mapped across ports A–J, all supporting configurable pull-up/pull-down, slew rate, and drive strength. These pins are not 5 V tolerant: absolute maximum input voltage is VDD + 0.3 V (max 3.9 V at 3.6 V supply), and operation is specified for 1.71–3.6 V supply range. External level-shifting is required for interfacing with 5 V logic or sensors.
Is the MK26FN2M0VMI18 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MK26FN2M0VMI18 is rated for –40°C to +105°C ambient temperature and conforms to AEC-Q100 Grade 2 stress testing requirements. Its design includes automotive-grade ESD protection (±2000 V HBM), robust power sequencing, and fail-safe peripheral behavior - making it suitable for body control modules, infotainment interfaces, and ADAS sensor hubs where extended temperature and reliability are mandatory.
