Freescale i.MX27

The i.MX27 System-on-Chip is a member of Freescale’s i.MX family of processors. The LinuxLink software distribution model enables the usage of the Freescale i.MX27 LinuxLink for development targeting all designs based on Freescale i.MX27 processor and its derivatives.

The i.MX27’s SOC rich feature set makes it an excellent choice for video- and voice-over-IP (V2IP) cordless and mobile phones, intelligent remote controls, point-of-sale terminals and many other wireless applications.

Processor derivatives enabled

The Freescale i.MX27 LinuxLink can be used as a starting point for Linux development for designs based on any of the processors from the ARM9E family.

Processor Overview

The i.MX27 processor from Freescale has been derived from its popular predecessor i.MX21. Based on the same ARM926EJ-S™ core, the i.MX27 processor adds an H.264 D1 hardware codec for high-resolution video processing, an Ethernet 10/100 MAC, security, plug-and-play connectivity and more power management features.
