i.MX 8M Plus (MIMX8ML8DVNLZAB)
Overview
The MIMX8ML8DVNLZAB is an i.MX 8M Plus application processor featuring a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 running at 1.8GHz alongside a Cortex-M7 real-time co-processor. It is uniquely equipped with a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for edge AI acceleration and an Image Signal Processor (ISP) for advanced vision applications.
Why Choose This Part
The inclusion of a dedicated NPU and HiFi 4 DSP allows for offloading heavy compute tasks from the primary CPU cores, improving power efficiency and latency. It also features DRAM Inline ECC and ECC on internal SRAM, which are critical for high-reliability industrial and safety-critical environments.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Developers should use the i.MX 8M Plus EVK (Evaluation Kit) for hardware prototyping and the Yocto Project or Android BSPs for software development. The MCUXpresso SDK supports the Cortex-M7 core for real-time task development.
