MCIMX27EC
Description
The i.MX27 and i.MX27L (MCIMX27/MX27L) multimedia applications processors represents the next step in low-power, high-performance application processors. Unless otherwise specified, the material in this data sheet is applicable to both the i.MX27 and i.MX27L processors and referred to singularly throughout this document as i.MX27.
Key Features
- Feature-rich cellular phones
- Portable media players and mobile gaming machines
- Personal digital assistants (PDAs) and wireless PDAs Contents © 2008-2019 NXP B.V. NXP reserves the right to change the detail specifications as may be required to permit improvements in the design of its products. Introduction
- Portable DVD players
- Digital cameras The i.MX27/MX27L processor features the advanced and power-efficient ARM926EJ-S core operating at speeds up to 400 MHz, and is optimized for minimal power consumption using the most advanced techniques for power saving (for example, DPTC, power gating, and clock gating). With 90 nm technology and dual Vt, the i.MX27/MX27L device provides the optimal performance vs. leakage current balance. The performance of the i.MX27/MX27L processors are both boosted by an on-chip cache system, and features peripheral devices, such as an MPEG-4, H.263, an H.264 video codec (up to D1-720 x 486-@ 30 FPS), LCD, eMMA_lt, and CMOS Sensor Interface controllers. The i.MX27/MX27L processors supports connections to various types of external memories, such as 266-MHz DDR, NAND Flash, NOR Flash, SDRAM, and SRAM. The i.MX27/MX27L devices can be connected to a variety of external devices using technology, such as high-speed USBOTG 2.0, the Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA), Multimedia/Secure Data (MMC/SDIO), and CompactFlash. NOTE The i.MX27L does not support the ATA-6 HDD interface.
- 1 Features The i.MX27/MX27L processors are targeted for video and voice over-IP (V2IP) and smart remote controllers. It also provides low-power solutions for any high-performance and demanding multimedia and graphics applications. The systems include the following features:
- Multi-standard video codec (i.MX27 only) - MPEG-4 part-II simple profile encoding/decoding - H.264/AVC baseline profile encoding/decoding - H.263 P3 encoding/decoding - Multi-party call: one stream encoding and two streams decoding simultaneously - Multi-format: encodes MPEG-4 bitstream, and decodes H.264 bitstream simultaneously - On-the-fly video processing that reduces system memory load (for example, the power-efficient viewfinder application with no involvement of either the memory system or the Arm CPU)
- Advanced power management (i.MX27/27L) - Dynamic process and temperature compensation - Multiple clock and power domains
