i.MX51 Applications Processors for Consumer and Industrial Products

The i.MX51 multimedia applications processors represent Freescale Semiconductor’s latest addition to a growing family of multimedia-focused products offering high performance processing optimized for lowest power consumption.

The i.MX51 processors feature Freescale’s advanced and power-efficient implementation of the ARM Cortex A8" core, which operates at speeds as high as 800 MHz. Up to 200 MHz DDR2 and mobile DDR DRAM clock rates are supported. These devices are suitable for applications such as the following:

" Netbooks (web tablets)

" Nettops (internet desktop devices)

" Mobile internet devices (MID)

" Portable media players (PMP)

" Portable navigation devices (PND)

" High-end PDAs

" Gaming consoles

" Automotive navigation and entertainment (see automotive data sheet, IMX51AEC) Features include the following:

" Smart Speed Technology—The heart of the i.MX51 processors is a level of power management throughout the device that enables the rich suite of multimedia features and peripherals to achieve minimum system power consumption in both active and various low-power modes. Smart Speed Technology enables the designer to deliver a feature-rich product that requires levels of power that are far less than typical industry expectations.

" Applications Processor—i.MX51 processors boost the capabilities of high-tier portable

applications by providing for the ever-increasing MIPS needs of operating systems and games.

Freescale’s Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS) allows the device run at much lower voltage and frequency with sufficient MIPS for tasks such as audio decode resulting in significant power reduction.

" Multimedia Powerhouse—The multimedia performance of the i.MX51 processors is boosted by a multi-level cache system and further enhanced by a Multi-Standard Hardware Video Codec, autonomous Image Processing Unit, SD and HD720p Triple Video (TV) Encoder with triple video DAC, Neon (including Advanced SIMD, 32-bit Single-Precision floating point support and Vector Floating Point co-processor), and a programmable smart DMA (SDMA) controller.

" Powerful Graphics Acceleration—Graphics is the key to mobile game navigation, web browsing, and other applications. The i.MX51 processors provide two independent, integrated Graphics Processing Units: OpenGL ES 2.0 3D graphics accelerator (27 Mtri/s, 166 Mpix/s) and OpenVG 1.1 2D graphics accelerator (166 Mpix/s).

" Interface Flexibility—The i.MX51 processor interface supports connection to all popular types of external memories: DDR2, Mobile DDR, NOR Flash, PSRAM, Cellular RAM, NAND Flash (MLC and SLC) and OneNAND. Designers seeking to provide products that deliver a rich multimedia experience find a full suite of on-chip peripherals: LCD controller and CMOS sensor interface, High-Speed USB On-The-Go with PHY, and three High-Speed USB hosts, multiple expansion card ports (High-Speed MMC/SDIO Host and others), 10/100 Ethernet controller, and a variety of other popular interfaces (PATA, UART, I2C, I2S serial audio, and SIM card, among others).

" Increased Security—Because the need for advanced security for mobile devices continues to increase, the i.MX51 processors deliver hardware-enabled security features that enable secure e-commerce, digital rights management (DRM), information encryption, secure boot, and secure software downloads.
