MCIMX27VJP4A-FR - i.MX27 ARM926 400MHz MPU | NXP | 404-LFBGA
Référence : MCIMX27VJP4A-FR ✗ Fin de vieMCIMX27VJP4A-FR Présentation
A microprocessor (MPU) is an integrated circuit that contains a CPU, cache, memory controller, and peripheral interfaces on a single die. The ARM926EJ-S architecture places the i.MX27 in the application processor tier of the embedded hierarchy: ARM9 core -> ARM926EJ-S -> i.MX27 family -> multimedia applications processor -> embedded SoC. This positioning targets richer HMI and multimedia workloads than typical microcontrollers while remaining more power-efficient than desktop CPUs, making the part common in industrial HMI, automotive infotainment precursors, and portable medical devices.
Key features of the MCIMX27VJP4A-FR include 400 MHz ARM926EJ-S CPU core speed, 16 KB instruction cache plus 16 KB data cache, hardware multimedia acceleration, an integrated CMOS sensor interface for camera input, and a dedicated image processing unit (IPU) supporting LCD panels up to SVGA resolution. The device also provides USB 2.0 full-speed, multiple UARTs, an integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC, and I2S/AC97 audio interfaces. Memory support covers DDR and SDR SDRAM through a dedicated external memory controller.
Typical applications span industrial human-machine interface panels, point-of-sale terminals, portable data loggers, automotive telematics and infotainment subsystems, medical patient monitors, and ruggedized handheld scanners. The wide peripheral mix plus the IPU's on-the-fly image rotation and color-space conversion let OEMs remove an external graphics controller and shrink the BOM.
Designers should validate PCB routing for the LFBGA-404 package, which demands microvia or via-in-pad technology on most modern process nodes; the part's 1.8V core plus 3.3V I/O rails require proper sequencing. The “-FR” suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging.

Applications typiques
MCIMX27VJP4A-FR convient pour 6 applications: Industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Panels, Automotive Telematics and Infotainment Subsystems, Portable Medical Patient Monitors, Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals, Portable Data Loggers and Handheld Scanners, Kiosks and Digital Signage Controllers.
Industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Panels
The MCIMX27VJP4A-FR suits industrial HMI panels thanks to the integrated Image Processing Unit (IPU) that drives LCDs up to SVGA resolution without an external graphics controller. Its 400 MHz ARM926EJ-S handles GUI rendering, touch-event processing, and fieldbus protocol stacks (Modbus, CAN) in parallel. The integrated 10/100 Ethernet MAC simplifies TCP/IP connectivity to plant networks, while the wide industrial operating range supports factory-floor deployments. Designers typically pair the processor with a 64-128 MB DDR and a TFT panel, leveraging the IPU's color-space conversion to reduce bill-of-material cost versus a discrete GPU approach.

Automotive Telematics and Infotainment Subsystems
In automotive telematics and infotainment subsystems, the MCIMX27VJP4A-FR's ARM926EJ-S core, CAN bus interface, and integrated audio (I2S/AC97) ports provide the compute and connectivity backbone for head-units and telematic control units. The CMOS sensor interface supports rear-view camera input, while the IPU handles LCD output to the central display. Although the part is NRND, its mature Linux BSP and known silicon behavior make it attractive for aftermarket and Tier-1 programs with established firmware. Designers typically add an external CAN transceiver and audio codec, with the 404-LFBGA package enabling compact PCB layouts behind dashboard clusters.

Principaux différenciateurs
- Standard 400 MHz ARM926EJ-S in i.MX27 family with full IPU feature set (vs MCIMX27MJP4A)
- Tape-and-reel (-FR) packaging for high-volume SMT (vs MCIMX27VJP4A (tray))
- Wide peripheral mix in single 17x17 mm package (vs MCIMX27LJP4A)
Notes de conception
The 404-LFBGA package on 0.8 mm (typical i.MX27) pitch requires microvia or via-in-pad PCB technology for reliable fan-out. Use 4-6 layer stack-up with continuous ground planes beneath the BGA to control impedance for DDR/SDRAM traces. Estimated: signal integrity margin typically requires 50 ohm single-ended, 100 ohm differential controlled-impedance routing based on the i.MX27 reference design.
The i.MX27 requires sequenced 1.8V core and 3.3V I/O rails; bring up the core voltage first, then the I/O rail, to avoid internal latch-up. Use the NXP reference PMIC companion to maintain sequencing constraints. Decouple each supply pin with a 100 nF X7R plus a bulk 4.7 uF tantalum/ceramic as specified in the i.MX27 hardware reference manual.
Boards designed for the i.MX27 family should avoid reusing the JTAG pins as GPIO without software re-mux, since the boot-mode latches can lock the part if JTAG is pulled incorrectly at reset. Maintain a known-good JTAG connection path for first-bring-up; the NXP i.MX27 reference manual documents reset and boot-mode pin handling in detail.
Informations de conformité
RoHS and lead-free compliance per NXP product page. AEC-Q100 not explicitly qualified - confirm with NXP for automotive programs. NRND lifecycle status means new automotive designs should evaluate i.MX6/i.MX8 alternatives.
