The MCIMX6U7CVM08AC is a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 application processor clocked at 800 MHz per core. The 624-MAPBGA package (21x21 mm) routes memory and peripheral signals on a single board layer if the layout is tight.
Peripherals — USB 2.0 + PHY, Gigabit Ethernet
Four USB 2.0 ports with integrated PHY eliminate external transceiver chips — saves board area and BOM cost. A single Gigabit Ethernet MAC (10/100/1000 Mbps) is enough for one network interface; if you need dual redundant ports for ring topologies, plan on an external switch or a second MAC via the PCIe lane. Additional interfaces include CAN, I²C, I²S, SPI, UART, and SDIO — covers most sensor and actuator buses on an industrial control board.
Graphics and security hardware
Hardware graphics acceleration and LCD/keypad controllers are built in — useful for local HMI displays without a separate GPU chip. The security block includes ARM TrustZone, secure boot, cryptography, tamper detection, and secure RTC.
Lifecycle and sourcing — still in active production
The MCIMX6U7CVM08AC is an active, current-production part (ROHS3 compliant). No last-time-buy risk on the horizon. NXP continues to manufacture the series alongside the newer i.MX8 series, so supply is stable through authorized and independent channels. We source and quote to order against an RFQ.
