MCIMX507CVK8BR2 - i.MX50 Cortex-A8 800MHz MPU, 416-MAPBGA | NXP
Référence : MCIMX507CVK8BR2 ✓ ActifMCIMX507CVK8BR2 Présentation
Key features include 800 MHz maximum CPU clock, 32-bit data path, dedicated 2D graphics and pixel-processing pipelines, and on-chip power management that supports dynamic voltage and frequency scaling for low-power read modes. The device also integrates an enhanced LCD controller, an image processing unit for display enhancement, and a rich set of peripherals including DDR2/LPDDR2 memory controller, NAND flash controller, eMMC 4.4 support, USB 2.0 OTG with PHY, and multiple connectivity options for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth companion chips.
The i.MX50 architecture employs a Cortex-A8 superscalar pipeline with NEON for multimedia acceleration and a TrustZone security extension for content protection on eReader and tablet devices. A separate hardware pixel pipeline handles E Ink waveform updates without CPU intervention, allowing the system to enter deep-sleep states while still maintaining display content, which dramatically extends battery life on reader platforms.
Typical applications include eReader controllers, tablet devices, ePaper signage, portable e-learning terminals, and industrial human-machine interfaces. The 416-MAPBGA package provides ample signal routing for high-speed DDR2 memory and parallel RGB/MIPI display interfaces.
When designing with this device, ensure proper PCB stackup and decoupling to meet DDR2 timing margins. The boot configuration pins select the boot source and must be set correctly during power-up sequencing.

Applications typiques
MCIMX507CVK8BR2 convient pour 6 applications: eReader / E-Book Reader Controller, Tablet and Consumer Mobile Devices, Industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI), Electronic Shelf Labels and ePaper Signage, Portable e-Learning Terminals, Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals.
eReader / E-Book Reader Controller
The MCIMX507CVK8BR2 is purpose-built for eReader platforms. Its integrated hardware E Ink pixel pipeline accelerates waveform updates without CPU intervention, allowing the Cortex-A8 core to enter deep-sleep between page turns while the display content is preserved, dramatically extending battery life. The 800 MHz K8 speed grade delivers responsive UI rendering for PDF reflow and library navigation. On-chip DDR2/LPDDR2 controller, eMMC 4.4 storage, and USB 2.0 OTG with PHY enable a complete single-chip eReader design, reducing BOM cost for mainstream reader SKUs.
Recommandé
Tablet and Consumer Mobile Devices
The MCIMX507CVK8BR2 suits lightweight tablet and consumer mobile products where the Cortex-A8 NEON engine accelerates media playback and the integrated display controller drives parallel RGB TFT panels. The 416-MAPBGA 13x13 mm package fits within the mechanical envelope of 7- to 8-inch tablets. With its on-chip power management, the device supports dynamic voltage/frequency scaling to balance performance and battery life during media streaming and web browsing workloads.
Recommandé
Industrial Human-Machine Interface (HMI)
The MCIMX507CVK8BR2 operates over -40C to +85C, making it suitable for industrial HMI panels. Its Cortex-A8 core runs factory-floor visualization software, while the parallel RGB display interface drives 7- to 10-inch TFT panels used in machine controls. The integrated USB 2.0 OTG with PHY simplifies connection to programming ports and USB peripherals, and the on-chip power management extends MTBF in always-on industrial installations.

Electronic Shelf Labels and ePaper Signage
Electronic shelf labels and digital signage benefit from the MCIMX507CVK8BR2's hardware E Ink waveform pipeline. The processor can drive multiple ePaper displays over SPI and update pricing/inventory data from a central server via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth companion chips. Deep-sleep current is minimal because the pixel pipeline maintains the last display image without CPU activity, allowing battery-powered ESL labels to operate for years on a single coin cell.

Notes de conception
The 416-MAPBGA 13x13 mm package requires a 4-layer or 6-layer PCB stackup to maintain DDR2/LPDDR2 signal integrity. Use microvia-in-pad for the BGA breakouts and route the DDR2 byte lanes with matched lengths within the tolerance specified in the i.MX50 Hardware Design Guide. Provide at least 6 ground-return vias around high-speed signal breakouts to minimize inductance.
Decouple each VDD/VCC rail with a 0.1 uF X7R ceramic capacitor placed within 2 mm of the corresponding BGA pin, plus a bulk 10 uF or 22 uF tantalum/ceramic capacitor. The i.MX50 datasheet recommends separate decoupling for the Cortex-A8 core supply (VDDARM), the peripheral supply, and the DDR2 I/O supply; do not share decoupling between these domains to avoid supply noise coupling into the DDR2 PHY.
At 800 MHz full Cortex-A8 utilization on typical eReader workloads, the MCIMX507CVK8BR2 dissipates approximately 1.5 to 2 W. The 416-MAPBGA package relies on PCB copper pour for cooling; provide at least 4 ground-pour layers stitched with thermal vias beneath the BGA to keep junction temperature below 100C in a sealed enclosure.
Configure the boot-mode pins correctly before power-up; mis-configuration can cause the device to enter USB recovery mode instead of booting from NAND/eMMC. Also ensure the DDR2 drive-strength and on-die-termination (ODT) settings are programmed per the i.MX50 reference manual calibration procedure to avoid intermittent memory errors at temperature extremes.
Informations de conformité
RoHS compliant per NXP product page; AEC-Q100 not applicable for commercial/industrial eReader MPUs.
