i.MX 93 Applications Processors
NXP's power-efficient applications processors feature AI acceleration and advanced security for next-gen edge computing
NXP's i.MX 93 applications processors deliver efficient machine learning (ML) acceleration and advanced security with integrated EdgeLock® secure enclave to support energy-efficient edge computing.
The i.MX 93 applications processors are the first in the i.MX portfolio to integrate the scalable Arm® Cortex®-A55 core, bringing performance and energy efficiency to Linux®-based edge applications and the Arm Ethos™-U65 microNPU while also enabling developers to create more capable, cost-effective, and energy-efficient ML applications.
Optimizing performance and power efficiency for Industrial, IoT, and automotive devices, i.MX 93 processors are built with NXP’s innovative Energy Flex architecture. The SoCs offer a rich set of peripherals targeting automotive, industrial, and consumer IoT market segments.
The i.MX 93 family offers an intelligent and secure edge processor for entry-level IoT applications with key features including:
- EdgeLock Secure Enclave subsystem to provide necessary security functions and a dedicated NPU for efficient processing for machine learning applications in next-generation IoT market products
