MCIMX233CAG4B 개요

The NXP MCIMX233CAG4B is an ARM926EJ-S-based applications processor from the i.MX23 family, integrating a single 32-bit ARM9 core running at 454 MHz in a 128-pin LQFP package (14x14 mm). As a member of the i.MX23 series originally developed by Freescale Semiconductor (now NXP), the part combines CPU, advanced power management, analogue audio interfaces, 12-bit ADCs, and a touch screen controller on-chip.

An ARM9 microprocessor is a 32-bit RISC core that executes the ARMv5TEJ instruction set, including Jazelle Java acceleration and DSP extensions, sitting in the broader MPU hierarchy below Cortex-A application processors but above microcontrollers in compute capacity. This places the i.MX23 firmly in the embedded multimedia/consumer category, where it bridges low-cost ARM7 designs and high-performance Cortex-A5 systems-on-chip.

Key differentiating features include on-chip power management that eliminates the need for an external PMIC for the core rails, integrated 12-bit ADC channels for sensor and panel sensing, an integrated touch screen controller, analogue audio I/O including headphone amp and microphone interfaces, and a DRAM controller supporting DDR/DDR2/LPDDR. Together these blocks allow the i.MX23 to drive PMP-style portable media, e-readers, and industrial HMI panels while consuming under 100 mW in typical use.

The architecture pairs the ARM926EJ-S core with a 16 KB instruction cache, 32 KB data cache, and a multi-layer AHB bus matrix that supports simultaneous LCD, USB, NAND, and SD card traffic. Hardware AES, RSA, and SHA accelerators (in the security variants) offload cryptographic workloads, while the integrated LCD controller supports up to WVGA panels without external bridge silicon.

Typical applications include portable media players, e-book readers, smart-home control hubs, industrial HMI panels with touch input, GPS personal navigation devices, and low-cost human-interface products. The integrated analogue audio also makes it well suited to VoIP accessories and intercom terminals that previously required a separate audio codec.

When designing with the MCIMX233CAG4B, ensure the JTAG and reset bootstrap pins are correctly pulled at power-up; incorrect bootstrap states can lock the part out of boot. The 128-LQFP package requires thermal relief on the central ground pad for production reliability and to keep the junction temperature within the 0C to +70C commercial operating range.

일반적인 애플리케이션

MCIMX233CAG4B 적합 용도: 6 애플리케이션s: Portable Media Player (PMP), E-Reader / E-Book Terminal, Industrial HMI / Touch Panel, GPS Personal Navigation Device (PND), Smart Home Control Hub, VoIP Intercom / Audio Accessory.

📱

Portable Media Player (PMP)

The MCIMX233CAG4B fits portable media players because it integrates an LCD controller (up to WVGA), analogue audio output with on-chip headphone amplifier, SD card interface, and USB OTG in one 128-LQFP package. At 454 MHz the ARM926EJ-S core decodes MP3, AAC, MPEG-4, and H.264 baseline video while leaving cycles for UI rendering. The integrated power management cuts idle power to under 10 mW, allowing 20+ hours of audio playback on a single 1500 mAh cell without an external PMIC.

📺

E-Reader / E-Book Terminal

The i.MX23's integrated LCD controller and low dynamic power make the MCIMX233CAG4B a strong fit for e-readers and e-book terminals. The ARM926EJ-S runs e-paper refresh waveforms and Linux-based reader software stacks at 454 MHz, while the integrated power management enables weeks of standby on battery. The 12-bit ADC and touch screen controller support stylus input without extra silicon, cutting BOM for low-cost education and consumer e-reader SKUs in the same 128-LQFP footprint.

🏭

Industrial HMI / Touch Panel

MCIMX233CAG4B drives industrial HMI panels because it pairs the on-chip 4-wire resistive touch screen controller with the integrated 12-bit ADC and LCD controller in the same 128-LQFP. The ARM926EJ-S at 454 MHz runs LVGL, Qt, or web-based HMIs smoothly on small panels. Industrial designers select the MCIMX233DAG4C variant for extended temperature, but the MCIMX233CAG4B remains suitable for indoor kiosks and machine HMIs where commercial 0C-70C range is acceptable.

🚗

GPS Personal Navigation Device (PND)

GPS PNDs benefit from the MCIMX233CAG4B's integrated audio codec, LCD controller, USB OTG, and SD card slot in a single 128-LQFP MPU. The 454 MHz ARM926EJ-S runs navigation software stacks while the integrated headphone amp drives voice prompts without a separate audio DAC. Low power idle modes let the PND sleep with fast GPS reacquisition, which is critical for turn-by-turn products that wake frequently between route guidance events.

🧩

Smart Home Control Hub

The MCIMX233CAG4B is well matched to low-cost smart-home hubs and remotes that need a touch screen, Wi-Fi/802.15.4 co-processor interface, and Linux application stack in a single chip. The integrated power management keeps idle power low so battery-powered remote controls last months on a coin cell, while the 454 MHz ARM926EJ-S runs Z-Wave/Zigbee gateway software and small touch-screen HMI simultaneously. The 128-LQFP footprint is friendly to small-form-factor remotes and wall controllers.

🎧

VoIP Intercom / Audio Accessory

VoIP intercoms and audio accessories benefit from the MCIMX233CAG4B's integrated analogue audio I/O, microphone preamp, headphone amplifier, and Ethernet MAC in the same 128-LQFP MPU. The 454 MHz ARM926EJ-S runs SIP stacks and voice codecs while keeping latency low. Compared to designs that bolt on an external audio codec and Ethernet PHY, the i.MX23 collapses the BOM and reduces PCB area for compact intercom panels and audio peripherals.

What is the operating frequency of MCIMX233CAG4B?
The MCIMX233CAG4B runs the ARM926EJ-S core at 454 MHz. According to the NXP/Freescale i.MX23 datasheet, this clock is generated by the integrated PLL from the 24 MHz external crystal and feeds the CPU, AHB bus matrix, and on-chip peripherals. The 454 MHz figure is the guaranteed safe operating frequency for the commercial 128-LQFP part across the 0C to +70C range.
Is MCIMX233CAG4B still in production?
No. The NXP product page explicitly states MCIMX233CAG4B is 'No Longer Manufactured' and shows a Discontinuance and Replacement product change notice. Last-time-buy stock is still circulating through distributors such as DigiKey, Heisener, and Microchip-Price, but NXP no longer ships new units. Designers should evaluate NXP-recommended replacements or migrate to i.MX28/i.MX6 series.
Where can I download the MCIMX233CAG4B datasheet PDF?
The official NXP product page at https://www.nxp.com/part/MCIMX233CAG4B provides the latest i.MX23 Applications Processor Reference Manual (1612-page document) and the i.MX23 datasheet. Third-party mirrors such as alldatasheet.com and digchip.com also host the PDF. Always reference the NXP-issued revision, not distributor copies, for absolute maximum ratings and errata.
What is the difference between MCIMX233CAG4B and MCIMX233DAG4C?
Both are i.MX23 family ARM926EJ-S processors at 454 MHz in 128-LQFP, but they differ in temperature grade and feature set. The 'C' suffix denotes commercial grade 0C to +70C while the 'D' suffix typically denotes an industrial or extended-temperature option. The 'B' vs 'C' suffix identifies silicon revision and may include minor bug fixes; check the NXP datasheet ordering information for the exact cut.
Does MCIMX233CAG4B include a PMIC on chip?
Yes. One of the defining features of the i.MX23 family is integrated power management that supplies the core, memory, and I/O rails without an external PMIC. According to the i.MX23 datasheet, the on-chip PMU manages power-up sequencing, sleep modes, and dynamic voltage scaling. This integration lets the MCIMX233CAG4B cut board area and BOM cost versus competing MPUs that require a discrete PMIC.
What package does MCIMX233CAG4B come in?
MCIMX233CAG4B ships in a 128-pin LQFP (Low-profile Quad Flat Pack) measuring 14x14 mm with a 0.4 mm pitch. The 'CAG4' portion of the part number encodes this package. For prototypes and low-volume runs the LQFP footprint is friendly to hand-soldering and rework, unlike the BGA alternatives used in higher-tier i.MX parts.
How much does MCIMX233CAG4B cost?
As of 2026-10-17, single-unit MCIMX233CAG4B pricing is approximately USD 7.42 on Heisener and similar distributor channels, with price breaks at higher volumes. Because the part is obsolete, spot pricing fluctuates with remaining distributor stock. For long-life production designs, evaluate NXP-recommended replacements rather than budgeting around MCIMX233CAG4B's residual inventory.
Is MCIMX233CAG4B in stock at distributors?
Stock levels vary week to week because MCIMX233CAG4B is discontinued at NXP. Heisener reported 6,352 pieces available at last check, while DigiKey, TrustedParts, and Microchip-Price list the part with limited inventory. Contact franchised distributors directly for current stock, lead time, and traceability documentation; the part may carry Last Time Buy status from earlier PCNs.
What is a drop-in replacement for MCIMX233CAG4B?
The closest pin-compatible drop-in replacements are other i.MX23 family members in the same 128-LQFP package such as MCIMX233CAG4C (revision update) and MCIMX233DAG4C (industrial temperature grade). For new designs NXP recommends migrating to the i.MX28 or i.MX6 series, but those are NOT pin-compatible and require PCB rework. Always validate boot mode strap compatibility before substituting.
MCIMX233CAG4B vs MCIMX6Y2DVM09AB - which is better?
MCIMX233CAG4B is an ARM926EJ-S at 454 MHz in 128-LQFP, while MCIMX6Y2DVM09AB is a Cortex-A7 at much higher clock in a different package. The i.MX6 part offers dramatically higher compute, more peripherals, and is still active, but it is NOT a drop-in replacement. Choose MCIMX233CAG4B only for legacy boards where footprint compatibility matters; choose the i.MX6 part for new designs that justify the PCB redesign.
What is the operating temperature of MCIMX233CAG4B?
The MCIMX233CAG4B 'C' suffix indicates commercial grade, so the operating temperature range is 0C to +70C ambient. If your product needs industrial or extended-temperature operation, select a 'D' or 'E' suffix i.MX23 variant. Exceeding the commercial temperature window without the correct grade will violate the datasheet absolute maximums and is not warranted by NXP.
Does MCIMX233CAG4B support Linux?
Yes. The i.MX23 family is supported by mainline Linux kernels and by NXP's Linux BSP archive, including U-Boot bootloaders and Buildroot/Yocto recipes. Given that MCIMX233CAG4B uses the ARM926EJ-S core with MMU, it runs full Linux distributions including kernel 4.x and 5.x community ports. The integrated LCD, touch, and audio blocks are all supported by upstream drivers.
What interfaces does MCIMX233CAG4B expose?
MCIMX233CAG4B exposes LCD controller (up to WVGA), touch screen controller, 12-bit ADC, analogue audio in/out with headphone amp, USB 2.0 OTG, NAND/NOR flash controller, SDRAM/DDR/DDR2/LPDDR controller, multiple UART/I2C/SPI ports, SD card, and GPIO. This breadth lets the i.MX23 act as the sole processor in PMP, e-reader, and HMI products with no companion logic required.
Can MCIMX233CAG4B drive a touchscreen?
Yes. The MCIMX233CAG4B integrates a 4-wire resistive touch screen controller on chip, so a typical product can connect the panel directly to dedicated NXP pins. The integrated ADC handles X/Y coordinate measurement, and the LCD controller simultaneously drives the panel display. This integration is one of the i.MX23 family's main selling points versus competing ARM9 MPUs that require an external touch controller.
What is the best NXP replacement for obsolete MCIMX233CAG4B?
For a same-package, same-family replacement NXP recommends other i.MX23 128-LQFP variants such as MCIMX233CAG4C or MCIMX233DAG4C, depending on the temperature grade you need. For new designs the suggested path is migrating to the active i.MX28 or i.MX6ULL/i.MX6S series, but those are not pin-compatible and require PCB rework. Confirm the migration part's peripheral set, voltage rails, and boot mode straps before committing.

선택 가이드

Choose MCIMX233CAG4B when you are maintaining an existing i.MX23-based design that requires a 128-LQFP commercial-grade ARM9 MPU with integrated PMU, touch controller, and audio codec. If the design must operate outside 0C to +70C, switch to MCIMX233DAG4C for industrial temperature in the same footprint. For new designs, prefer the active i.MX28 or i.MX6ULL families instead - they require PCB rework but offer active NXP support, longer life cycle, and higher performance. MCIMX233CAG4B should only be sourced for legacy repair and production continuation, not for new product launches.

설계 노트

The i.MX23 integrates the core and I/O power rails, but a 24 MHz crystal and proper decoupling network are mandatory. Place 1x 10 uF bulk + 4x 100 nF ceramic capacitors within 5 mm of the supply pins, following the i.MX23 Hardware Reference Layout. The internal PMU manages the core ramp profile; do NOT add external RC delay circuits on the power rails or the PMIC hand-shake will fail and the part will not boot.

The MCIMX233CAG4B bootstrap pins (BOOT[3:0]) select the boot source (NOR, NAND, SD, USB). Strap them at power-on via 10 kohm pull-ups/pull-downs and verify the levels with an oscilloscope during prototype bring-up. A common failure mode is leaving these pins floating, which forces the part into USB recovery mode and prevents application code from launching from external memory.

Keep the 24 MHz crystal traces short and symmetric, with a continuous ground reference plane beneath. The DDR/DDR2 memory controller is sensitive to trace length matching; for DDR2-400 use +-25 ps skew on the byte lanes and route address/command/clock in a separate layer with reference to ground. Failing to follow the i.MX23 reference layout causes intermittent SDRAM training failures that are hard to diagnose.
