The i.MX 6Dual/6Quad processors offers numerous advanced features, such as:
• Multilevel memory system—The multilevel memory system of each processor is based on the L1
instruction and data caches, L2 cache, and internal and external memory. The processors support
many types of external memory devices, including DDR3, DDR3L, LPDDR2, NOR Flash,
PSRAM, cellular RAM, NAND Flash (MLC and SLC), OneNAND™, and managed NAND,
including eMMC up to rev 4.4/4.41.
• Smart speed technology—The processors have power management throughout the device that
enables the rich suite of multimedia features and peripherals to consume minimum power in both
active and various low power modes. Smart speed technology enables the designer to deliver a
feature-rich product, requiring levels of power far lower than industry expectations.
• Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling—The processors improve the power efficiency of devices
by scaling the voltage and frequency to optimize performance.
• Multimedia powerhouse—The multimedia performance of each processor is enhanced by a
multilevel cache system, Neon® MPE (Media Processor Engine) co-processor, a multi-standard
hardware video codec, 2 autonomous and independent image processing units (IPU), and a
programmable smart DMA (SDMA) controller.
• Powerful graphics acceleration—Each processor provides three independent, integrated graphics
processing units: an OpenGL® ES 2.0 3D graphics accelerator with four shaders (up to 200 MTri/s
and OpenCL support), 2D graphics accelerator, and dedicated OpenVG™ 1.1 accelerator.
• Interface flexibility—Each processor supports connections to a variety of interfaces: LCD
controller for up to four displays (including parallel display, HDMI1.4, MIPI display, and LVDS
display), dual CMOS sensor interface (parallel or through MIPI), high-speed USB on-the-go with
PHY, high-speed USB host with PHY, multiple expansion card ports (high-speed MMC/SDIO host
and other), 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet controller, and a variety of other popular interfaces
(such as UART, I2C, and I2S serial audio, SATA-II, and PCIe-II).
• Automotive environment support—Each processor includes interfaces, such as two CAN ports, an
MLB150/50 port, an ESAI audio interface, and an asynchronous sample rate converter for
multichannel/multisource audio.
• Advanced security—The processors deliver hardware-enabled security features that enable secure
e-commerce, digital rights management (DRM), information encryption, secure boot, and secure
software downloads. The security features are discussed in detail in the i.MX 6Dual/6Quad
security reference manual (IMX6DQ6SDLSRM).
• Integrated power management—The processors integrate linear regulators and internally generate
voltage levels for different domains. This significantly simplifies system power management
structure.

Signal Naming Convention
Throughout this document, the updated signal names are used except where referenced as a ball name
(such as the Functional Contact Assignments table, Ball Map table, and so on). A master list of the signal
name changes is in the document, IMX 6 Series Standardized Signal Name Map (EB792). This list can be
used to map the signal names used in older documentation to the new standardized naming conventions.
The signal names of the i.MX6 series of products are standardized to align the signal names within the
family and across the documentation. Benefits of this standardization are as follows:
• Signal names are unique within the scope of an SoC and within the series of products
• Searches will return all occurrences of the named signal
• Signal names are consistent between i.MX 6 series products implementing the same modules
• The module instance is incorporated into the signal name

Introduction
This standardization applies only to signal names. The ball names are preserved to prevent the need to
change schematics, BSDL models, IBIS models, and so on.

Enhanced Periodic
Interrupt Timer
Timer
Peripherals
Each EPIT is a 32-bit “set and forget” timer that starts counting after the
EPIT is enabled by software. It is capable of providing precise interrupts
at regular intervals with minimal processor intervention. It has a 12-bit
prescaler for division of input clock frequency to get the required time
setting for the interrupts to occur, and counter value can be programmed
on the fly.
Enhanced Serial
Audio Interface
Connectivity
Peripherals
The Enhanced Serial Audio Interface (ESAI) provides a full-duplex serial
port for serial communication with a variety of serial devices, including
industry-standard codecs, SPDIF transceivers, and other processors.
The ESAI consists of independent transmitter and receiver sections, each
section with its own clock generator. All serial transfers are synchronized
to a clock. Additional synchronization signals are used to delineate the
word frames. The normal mode of operation is used to transfer data at a
periodic rate, one word per period. The network mode is also intended for
periodic transfers; however, it supports up to 32 words (time slots) per
period. This mode can be used to build time division multiplexed (TDM)
networks. In contrast, the on-demand mode is intended for non-periodic
transfers of data and to transfer data serially at high speed when the data
becomes available.
The ESAI has 12 pins for data and clocking connection to external
devices.

Brief Description
The TrustZone Watchdog (TZ WDOG) timer module protects against
TrustZone starvation by providing a method of escaping normal mode and
forcing a switch to the TZ mode. TZ starvation is a situation where the
normal OS prevents switching to the TZ mode. Such a situation is
undesirable as it can compromise the system’s security. Once the TZ
WDOG module is activated, it must be serviced by TZ software on a
periodic basis. If servicing does not take place, the timer times out. Upon
a time-out, the TZ WDOG asserts a TZ mapped interrupt that forces
switching to the TZ mode. If it is still not served, the TZ WDOG asserts a
security violation signal to the CSU. The TZ WDOG module cannot be
programmed or deactivated by a normal mode Software.

Comment2
Isolation between the NVCC_EIMx and
NVCC_SDx different supplies allow them to
operate at different voltages within the specified
range.
Example: NVCC_EIM1 can operate at 1.8 V
while NVCC_EIM2 operates at 3.3 V.
Applying the maximum voltage results in maximum power consumption and heat generation. NXP recommends a voltage set
point = (Vmin + the supply tolerance). This results in an optimized power/speed ratio.
See the Hardware Development Guide for i.MX 6Quad, 6Dual, 6DualLite, 6Solo Families of Applications Processors
(IMX6DQ6SDLHDG) for bypass capacitors requirements for each of the *_CAP supply outputs.
For Quad core system, connect to VDD_ARM_IN. For Dual core system, may be shorted to GND together with
VDD_ARM23_CAP to reduce leakage.
VDD_ARM_IN and VDD_SOC_IN must be at least 125 mV higher than the LDO Output Set Point for correct voltage regulation.
VDD_ARM_CAP must not exceed VDD_CACHE_CAP by more than +50 mV. VDD_CACHE_CAP must not exceed
VDD_ARM_CAP by more than 200 mV.
VDD_SOC_CAP and VDD_PU_CAP must be equal.
In LDO enabled mode, the internal LDO output set points must be configured such that the:
VDD_ARM LDO output set point does not exceed the VDD_SOC LDO output set point by more than 100 mV.
VDD_SOC LDO output set point is equal to the VDD_PU LDO output set point.
The VDD_ARM LDO output set point can be lower than the VDD_SOC LDO output set point, however, the minimum output set
points shown in this table must be maintained.
In LDO bypassed mode, the external power supply must ensure that VDD_ARM_IN does not exceed VDD_SOC_IN by more
than 100 mV. The VDD_ARM_IN supply voltage can be lower than the VDD_SOC_IN supply voltage. The minimum voltages
shown in this table must be maintained.
To set VDD_SNVS_IN voltage with respect to Charging Currents and RTC, see the Hardware Development Guide for i.MX
6Dual, 6Quad, 6Solo, 6DualLite Families of Applications Processors (IMX6DQ6SDLHDG).

All digital I/O supplies (NVCC_xxxx) must be powered under normal conditions whether the associated I/O pins are in use or
not, and associated I/O pins need to have a pull-up or pull-down resistor applied to limit any floating gate current.
11
This supply also powers the pre-drivers of the DDR I/O pins; therefore, it must always be provided, even when LVDS is not used.
4.1.4
External Clock Sources
Each i.MX 6Dual/6Quad processor has two external input system clocks: a low frequency (RTC_XTALI)
and a high frequency (XTALI).
The RTC_XTALI is used for low-frequency functions. It supplies the clock for wake-up circuit,
power-down real time clock operation, and slow system and watchdog counters. The clock input can be
connected to either an external oscillator or a crystal using the internal oscillator amplifier. Additionally,
there is an internal ring oscillator, that can be used instead of RTC_XTALI when accuracy is not important.
The system clock input XTALI is used to generate the main system clock. It supplies the PLLs and other
peripherals. The system clock input can be connected to either an external oscillator or a crystal using the
internal oscillator amplifier.
NOTE
The internal RTC oscillator does not provide an accurate frequency and is
affected by process, voltage and temperature variations. NXP strongly
recommends using an external crystal as the RTC_XTALI reference. If the
internal oscillator is used instead, careful consideration should be given to
the timing implications on all of the SoC modules dependent on this clock.

External oscillator or a crystal with internal oscillator amplifier.

The typical values shown in Table 7 are required for use with NXP BSPs to ensure precise time keeping
and USB operation. For RTC_XTALI operation, two clock sources are available:
• On-chip 40 kHz ring oscillator: This clock source has the following characteristics:
— Approximately 25 μA more Idd than crystal oscillator
— Approximately ±50% tolerance
— No external component required
— Starts up quicker than 32 kHz crystal oscillator
• External crystal oscillator with on-chip support circuit

Electrical Characteristics
— At power up, an internal ring oscillator is used. After crystal oscillator is stable, the clock circuit
switches over to the crystal oscillator automatically.
— Higher accuracy than ring oscillator.
— If no external crystal is present, then the ring oscillator is used.
The decision to choose a clock source should be based on real-time clock use and precision timeout.
4.1.5
Maximum Measured Supply Currents
Power consumption is highly dependent on the application. Estimating the maximum supply currents
required for power supply design is difficult because the use case that requires maximum supply current is
not a realistic use case.
To help illustrate the effect of the application on power consumption, data was collected while running
industry standard benchmarks that are designed to be compute and graphic intensive. The results provided
are intended to be used as guidelines for power supply design.
Description of test conditions:
• The Power Virus data shown in Table 8 represent a use case designed specifically to show the
maximum current consumption possible for the Arm core complex. All cores are running at the
defined maximum frequency and are limited to L1 cache accesses only to ensure no pipeline stalls.
Although a valid condition, it would have a very limited, if any, practical use case, and be limited
to an extremely low duty cycle unless the intention was to specifically cause the worst case power
consumption.
• EEMBC CoreMark: Benchmark designed specifically for the purpose of measuring the
performance of a CPU core. More information available at www.eembc.org/coremark. Note that
this benchmark is designed as a core performance benchmark, not a power benchmark. This use
case is provided as an example of power consumption that would be typical in a
computationally-intensive application rather than the Power Virus.
• 3DMark Mobile 2011: Suite of benchmarks designed for the purpose of measuring graphics and
overall system performance. Note that this benchmark is designed as a graphics performance
benchmark, not a power benchmark. This use case is provided as an example of power
consumption that would be typical in a very graphics-intensive application.
• Devices used for the tests were from the high current end of the expected process variation.
The NXP power management IC, MMPF0100xxxx, which is targeted for the i.MX 6 series processor
family, supports the power consumption shown in Table 8, however a robust thermal design is required for
the increased system power dissipation.
See the i.MX 6Dual/6Quad Power Consumption Measurement Application Note (AN4509) for more
details on typical power consumption under various use case definitions.

The actual maximum current drawn from VDD_HIGH_IN will be as shown plus any additional current drawn from the
VDD_HIGH_CAP outputs, depending upon actual application configuration (for example, NVCC_LVDS_2P5, NVCC_MIPI, or
HDMI, PCIe, and SATA VPH supplies).
Under normal operating conditions, the maximum current on VDD_SNVS_IN is shown Table 8. The maximum VDD_SNVS_IN
current may be higher depending on specific operating configurations, such as BOOT_MODE[1:0] not equal to 00, or use of
the Tamper feature. During initial power on, VDD_SNVS_IN can draw up to 1 mA if the supply is capable of sourcing that
current. If less than 1 mA is available, the VDD_SNVS_CAP charge time will increase.
This is the maximum current per active USB physical interface.
The DRAM power consumption is dependent on several factors such as external signal termination. DRAM power calculators
are typically available from memory vendors which take into account factors such as signal termination.
See the i.MX 6Dual/6Quad Power Consumption Measurement Application Note (AN4509) for examples of DRAM power
consumption during specific use case scenarios.
General equation for estimated, maximum power consumption of an IO power supply:
Imax = N x C x V x (0.5 x F)
Where:
N—Number of IO pins supplied by the power line
C—Equivalent external capacitive load
V—IO voltage
(0.5 xF)—Data change rate. Up to 0.5 of the clock rate (F)
In this equation, Imax is in Amps, C in Farads, V in Volts, and F in Hertz.
