Overview

MK64FN1M0VLL12 is an NXP Kinetis K64 series microcontroller based on an ARM Cortex-M4 core. It runs up to 120 MHz and includes 1 MB of flash and 256 KB of RAM, with integrated Ethernet and USB peripherals. The device targets networked embedded applications that need moderate CPU performance, ample memory, and rich connectivity.

Why Choose This Part

Provides a balance of CPU performance (Cortex-M4), generous on-chip memory (1 MB flash, 256 KB RAM), and integrated high-speed peripherals (Ethernet and USB) which reduce BOM and PCB complexity. The feature set and memory make it suitable for networked, real-time embedded systems that need local processing and connectivity without adding external controllers.

Applications

Industrial Ethernet controllers and gateways
Use as an Ethernet-enabled controller or protocol gateway for factory automation and building management.
USB device and host applications
Implement USB device, host, or OTG functions for data acquisition, firmware update, or device connectivity.
Real-time control and motion tasks
Run deterministic control loops and DSP-style signal processing on the Cortex-M4 for motors, sensors, and actuators.
Edge IoT gateways and protocol bridges
Act as an edge node that aggregates sensor data, performs preprocessing, and forwards data over Ethernet or USB.

Getting Started

Start with the FRDM-K64F development board (Freedom platform) which provides the MK64 MCU and an onboard OpenSDA debug interface. Use NXP MCUXpresso IDE and MCUXpresso SDK for examples, peripheral drivers, and board support; the part is also supported by commercial toolchains like IAR EWARM and Keil MDK. For debugging and flashing you can use the on-board debug probe or external SWD probes compatible with OpenOCD.
