Sign in to saveAlso known as innovative Multimedia eXtension
The i.MX series is a family of ARM architecture-based system-on-chip (SoC) processors designed by NXP Semiconductors for multimedia and embedded applications focused on low-power consumption. Originally developed by Freescale Semiconductor (acquired by NXP in 2015), the i.MX application processors integrate multiple processing units including CPU cores, graphics processing units (GPUs), and video processing units (VPUs) onto a single die. The i.MX family is qualified for automotive, industrial, and consumer markets with most products guaranteed for a production lifetime of 10 to 15 years.

The i.MX series is a family of ARM architecture-based system-on-chip (SoC) processors designed by NXP Semiconductors for multimedia and embedded applications focused on low-power consumption. Originally developed by Freescale Semiconductor (acquired by NXP in 2015), the i.MX application processors integrate multiple processing units including CPU cores, graphics processing units (GPUs), and video processing units (VPUs) onto a single die.

i.MX originally stood for "innovative Multimedia eXtension" and was previously known as the "DragonBall MX" family, the fifth generation of Freescale DragonBall microcontrollers. Notable devices that use i.MX processors include Ford Sync automotive systems, the Amazon Kindle, Zune (except for Zune HD), Purism's Librem 5, and various embedded systems and single-board computers.
