The block diagram on this slide shows the i.MX53 processors and allows designers to compare the i.MX53 family to previous generations of the i.MX family. The i.MX53 is an ARM Cortex A8 processor running at speeds of up to 1GHz core processing and is based on the 65 nm technology with low power and general purpose transistors. The core voltage ranges from 0.85V to 1.3V and the i.MX53 is available in multiple packages. Packages available include the 19 x 19, 0.8mm pitch as well as the 12 x 12 package-on-package. Also available are the different temperature ranges for consumer, auto and industrial applications. The i.MX53 supports DDR2, DDR3, low power DDR2 and low voltage DDR2 up to 2GBs. Hardware acceleration includes blocks for 2D as well as 3D graphics and HD video encode and decode. The IPU in the i.MX53 takes care of the resizing, blending, inversion, rotation, de-interlacing and image enhancement. New intellectual property in the i.MX53 allows the integration of LVDS, SATA, 10/100 Ethernet, eMMC 4.4, a 33kHZ oscillator, temperature monitoring and LDO supply x 2.
