Product details
Overview
MVF30NN151CKU26 from NXP Semiconductors (formerly Freescale) is a dual-core heterogeneous SoC integrating an ARM Cortex-A5 application processor and an ARM Cortex-M4 real-time controller in a single 176-pin LQFP-EP package. It operates from 3.0 V to 3.6 V at –40 °C to +85 °C ambient, delivers up to 400 MHz A5 performance with NEON and double-precision FPU, and supports DDR3/LPDDR2, FlexCAN3, dual 10/100 Ethernet with IEEE 1588, and dual display control - deployed in industrial HMIs and automotive gateway modules.
For engineers reviewing the MVF30NN151CKU26 datasheet, MVF30NN151CKU26 pinout, MVF30NN151CKU26 application, or MVF30NN151CKU26 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified dual-core cache coherency, 512 KB on-chip SRAM with ECC, dual FlexCAN3 interfaces with CAN FD readiness, IEEE 1588 timestamping accuracy, and validated boot ROM security features including TrustZone and SNVS.
Technical Context
This SoC implements asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP) with hardware-enforced memory isolation via ARM TrustZone, enabling concurrent Linux execution on the A5 core and real-time deterministic control on the M4 core. The system includes five independent PLLs (system, USB, Ethernet, audio, video), dual DMA controllers with DMAMUX routing, and a hardware CRC module for fast integrity checking of firmware and data transfers.
Power management leverages multiple low-power states (RUN/WAIT/STOP), per-module clock gating via peripheral enable registers, and programmable low-voltage detection with configurable reset or exception response. Security architecture integrates Secure Non-Volatile Storage (SNVS), TrustZone Address Space Controller, hardware RNG, SHA-1/SHA-256 hashing, and Secure JTAG.
