MC9328MX21VK-FR Übersicht
An i.MX applications processor is a system-on-chip (SoC) class microprocessor that combines an ARM CPU core with multimedia peripherals (LCD controller, video accelerator, image sensor interface, USB OTG) and memory interfaces into a single package. It sits in the broader taxonomy of MPU -> ARM microprocessor -> applications processor -> SoC -> semiconductor, and is part of NXP's Smart Speed family optimized for high performance at low power consumption. More than 60 million i.MX devices have shipped historically across the portable handheld market.
Key features include operation up to 266 MHz core clock, ARM926EJ-S core with Jazelle Java acceleration and 16-bit/32-bit Thumb instruction support, integrated LCD controller supporting TFT/STN panels, hardware video accelerator, USB On-The-Go with PHY, CMOS sensor interface for camera input, and 1-Wire interface for accessory/peripheral identification. The -FR suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging in full reel quantity for high-volume manufacturing.
The architecture combines an ARM9-class core with on-chip SRAM and external memory controllers for SDRAM, NOR/NAND flash, and PCMCIA/CF cards. The integrated peripherals reduce bill-of-materials cost and PCB footprint compared to discrete implementations, while the hardware video accelerator offloads MPEG-4/H.263 decoding from the CPU.
Typical applications include portable media players, PDAs and smart handhelds, industrial HMI terminals with integrated LCD, GPS personal navigation devices, and automotive infotainment head units targeting low-power multimedia workloads.
Designers should consider that this part is now in NXP's end-of-life pipeline; verify lifecycle status before new designs and qualify the -Q suffix variant if extended temperature or AEC-Q100 qualification is needed.

The video accelerator handles MPEG-4 and H.263 streams for rear-seat entertainment, while the LCD controller drives primary and secondary displays. Note this part is not AEC-Q100 qualified; modern automotive designs should migrate to i.MX6 Q-qualified variants for AEC-Q100 and ISO 26262 support.
Empfohlen
Digital Photo Frame and Imaging Device
The CMOS sensor interface on the MC9328MX21VK-FR accepts direct image sensor input, enabling digital photo frames, digital still cameras, and small form-factor camcorders. The LCD controller drives the on-device preview display while hardware acceleration handles JPEG decoding for slideshows. The USB On-The-Go port supports PC-side image transfer, and the NAND flash controller manages on-board storage of hundreds to thousands of images on removable media.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale
- Tape-and-reel packaging for high-volume automated assembly (vs. MC9328MX21VK (tray packaging))

- Direct successor with ARM926EJ-S at 400 MHz (vs. MCIMX27VOP4A)
Designhinweise
Estimated: the 289-ball LFBGA package at 14 x 14 mm provides solid thermal performance through PCB land and via thermal arrays. At 266 MHz core speed driving video decoding plus LCD, junction temperature should remain within commercial limits on a 4-layer PCB with a continuous ground plane beneath the package. For sealed enclosures without airflow, monitor the die temperature through the on-chip thermal sensor and derate ambient temperature accordingly. Add thermal vias in the BGA land pattern to spread heat into the inner copper planes.
The 0.65 mm ball pitch on the LFBGA-289 package requires a microvia-compatible PCB stackup (laser-drilled microvias in a 1+2+1 build). Use a 1:1 trace-to-via fanout where possible, and ensure escape routing for all power and ground balls is handled before signal traces. Matched-impedance routing (typically 50 ohm single-ended, 100 ohm differential for USB) is mandatory for the SDRAM and USB OTG signals. Always confirm pad geometry against the IPC-7351 or IPC-7095 BGA guidelines.
Because the MC9328MX21VK-FR is in NXP's Last Time Buy pipeline, do not commit new designs to this exact part. Validate stock availability and last-time-buy allocation with NXP or authorized distributor Rochester Electronics before committing to volume production. For maintenance of existing designs, qualify the -CVM (industrial temperature) or -VM (commercial, lower speed) same-family variants as second sources where possible. Confirm with NXP that any alternative i.MX21 variant shares the same exact bond-out and revision.
Length-match the SDRAM clock (SDCLK and SDCLK_N) within 25 mils on the PCB, and length-match the SDRAM byte lanes within 100 mils. Route USB DP/DM as a 90 ohm differential pair with no more than two vias, and keep the pair away from noisy switchers. The CMOS sensor interface clock and data lines should be shielded with ground on both sides and reference to the ground plane to avoid coupling from adjacent LCD data lines.
Compliance-Informationen
RoHS compliant per JLCPCB listing. AEC-Q100 not qualified - this part targets commercial/industrial segments. REACH, halogen-free, and conflict minerals status not stated in available web data; confirm with manufacturer for full material declaration.
