1 Introduction
The Core Module CM-i.MX53 is based on Freescale’s next generation, high-performance, power-efficient,
consumer multimedia applications processor i.MX53. This processor features OpenGL® ES 2.0 and
OpenVG™ 1.1 hardware accelerators, a multi-format HD1080p video decoder and a HD720P video encoder
hardware engine, dual display capability, a SATA controller, IEEE1588 time-stamping and numerous serial
interfaces (SDIO, SPI, I2C, UART). Further features are integrated security solutions, USB 2.0 controllers,
Ethernet controller and a camera input (CSI). The Core Module is available for both commercial and industrial
temperature range. It addresses 1GByte DDR2-SDRAM, has an on-board NAND flash of 2GByte and an
additional SPI-NOR flash of 4MByte.
The state of the art i.MX53 SoC in combination with the outstanding integration of several peripheral
controllers, memory and voltage control, turn the CM-i.MX53 into a high-performance embedded platform
for your future applications.
