i.MX53 Features
Overview
This page outlines the Freescale i.MX53 features available as part of the Opal CPU Module.
It includes features that are available via external pins on the Opal, and does not detail internal functions such as memory controllers, internal timers etc.
Please note also that not all features listed may be supported by your chosen operating system.
Each section includes:
A brief overview of the feature along with any specific Opal implementation notes
List of external signals used with the interface. These signals are likely to be multiplexed with other signals. The following chapter details each external signal on the Opal CPU module along with i.MX53 functions available on each pad.
This page does not include in-depth information on each feature. Please refer to the appropriate section of the Freescale i.MX53 manual for this information.
Display Controller
The i.MX53 includes 5 display interfaces:
2x LVDS
2x parallel RGB
Analog VGA
Two of these interfaces may be used at the same time to drive independent displays. A combined rate of up to 180 MP/sec is supported. This means a single 1080p (1920x1080) display, or two displays of lower frequency.
While the silicon supports dual, independent displays, we do not currently have software support for this feature. Contact us if this is important for your application.
