The i.MX 8M Mini is a multi-core heterogeneous applications processors built using advanced 14LPC FinFET process technology. And brings together high-performance computing, power efficiency, enhanced system reliability and embedded security.
At the heart is a scalable core complex of up to four Cortex-A53 running up to 1.8GHz plus Cortex-M4 based real-time domain at 400+MHz. i.MX 8M Mini core options are optimized for low-power but offer the breadth of processing power necessary for consumer, audio, industrial, machine learning training and inferencing across a range of cloud providers.
Power Efficient and Scalable Performance
- Low power 14LPC delivers much lower leakage than standard technology
- Single-, dual- or quad-core Cortex-A53 cores up to 1.8 GHz; scalable performance in a pin-compatible package
- Cortex-M4 up to 400MHz for HMP (task offload, power optimizations)
Size- and Cost-optimized System Design
- Full-featured packages with 6-8 layer board design and no microvias
- DDR3L, DDR4, LPDDR4
- Direct connection of PDM microphones (no CODEC) enables low system-cost
- Linux/Android/FreeRTOS BSP and solutions software
Media-rich: Video, Graphics, Audio, User Interface
