i.MX31 Multimedia Applications Processor

Based on an ARM11™ microprocessor core, the i.MX31 provides the performance with low power consumption required by modern digital devices such as feature-rich cellular phones, portable media players and mobile gaming machines, personal digital assistants (PDAs), Wireless PDAs and industrial mobile devices. The i.MX31 takes advantage of the ARM1136JF-S™ core running at overdrive speeds of 532 MHz, and are optimized for minimal power consumption using the most advanced techniques for power saving (DPTC, DVFS, power gating, clock gating).

With 90 nm technology, the i.MX31 provides the optimal performance versus leakage current balance. The performance of the i.MX31 is boosted by a multi-level cache system, and features peripheral devices such as an MPEG-4 Hardware Encoder (VGA, 30 fps), an Autonomous Image Processing Unit, a Vector Floating Point (VFP11) co-processor, and a RISC-based SDMA controller. The i.MX31 supports connections to various types of external memories, such as DDR, NAND Flash, NOR Flash, SDRAM, and SRAM. The i.MX31 can be connected to a variety of external devices using technology, such as high-speed USB2.0 OTG, ATA, MMC/SDIO, and compact flash.
