NXP MIMXRT1172CVM8A

The i.MX RT1170 is a new high-end processor of the i.MX RT family, which features NXP’s advanced implementation of a high performance Arm Cortex -M7 core operating at speeds up to 800 MHz and a power efficient Cortex -M4 core up to 400 MHz. The i.MX RT1170 processor has 2 MB on-chip RAM in total, including a 768 KB RAM which can be flexibly configured as TCM (512 KB RAM shared with M7 TCM and 256 KB RAM shared with M4 TCM) or general-purpose on-chip RAM. The i.MX RT1170 integrates advanced power management module with DCDC and LDO regulators that reduce complexity of external power supply and simplifies power sequencing. The i.MX RT1170 also provides various memory interfaces, including SDRAM, RAW NAND FLASH, NOR FLASH, SD/eMMC, Quad/Octal SPI, Hyper RAM/Flash, and a wide range of other interfaces for connecting peripherals, such as WLAN, Bluetooth, GPS, displays, and camera sensors. The i.MX RT1170 also has rich audio and video features, including MIPI CSI/DSI, LCD display, graphic accelerator, camera interface, SPDIF, and I2S audio interface.
