NXP’s i.MX 8QuadMax and 8QuadPlus Processors for Advanced Multi-Platform Automotive Infotainment

Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, is now offering the i.MX 8QuadMax and 8QuadPlus applications processors from NXP Semiconductors. The multi-core applications processors are ideal for applications such as automotive infotainment, advanced industrial human machine interface (HMI) and control, heads-up displays, and machine vision and tracking devices.

NXP’s i.MX 8QuadMax and 8QuadPlus applications processors, available from Mouser Electronics, enable fast, multi-OS platform deployment through advanced full-chip hardware virtualization and domain protection. Based on four Arm® Cortex®– A53 cores, two Cortex-M4F cores, and one (QuadPlus) or two (QuadMax) Cortex- A72 cores, the highly scalable processors also incorporate a HiFi 4 DSP core for pre- and post-audio processing and two graphics processing units (GPUs).

The processors offer high-performance end-to-end vision processing, making them a suitable choice for developing advanced vision-based HMI systems, and support up to four 1080p screens of independent content or a single 4K screen. The devices’ hardware-based virtualization, split GPU and display architecture, and resource partitioning support lower costs and faster time-to-market than using hypervisor techniques alone.

Mouser also stocks the i.MX 8QuadMax Multisensory Enablement Kit (MEK), which provides a comprehensive platform for developing and evaluating applications for the embedded automotive and industrial markets. Offering high-level integration to support functions including graphics, video, audio, and voice functions, the i.MX 8QuadMax MEK CPU Board includes all necessary software and drivers to create and evaluate broad-based applications.
