Subject: Inquiry Regarding Compatible LPDDR4 RAM for i.MX 8M Plus Processor,

[Sak_ed]

Hello There,

We are currently in the process of designing a new project that revolves around the i.MX 8M Plus processor. In order to ensure optimal performance and compatibility, we would greatly appreciate it if you could provide us with a list of LPDDR4 RAM modules that have been thoroughly tested and verified to work seamlessly with the i.MX 8M Plus processor "PN: MIMX8ML8DVNLZAB".

Thank you in advance for your support,

Best regards,

Hi Ritesh,

We are considering the use of the i.MX 8M Plus processor, part number "MIMX8ML8CVNKZAB." In our product, we have identified two alternate parts that might suit our requirements:  " MT53E512M32D1ZW-046 WT:B " and "MT53E512M32D1ZW-046 IT:B."

Before finalizing our component selection, we would appreciate your confirmation on the compatibility of these alternate parts with the i.MX 8M Plus processor. Could you please provide information regarding any performance considerations, or specific configurations that we should be aware of when using these components together?

Best regards,

Sakthivel

Hi @Sak_ed,

As long as the selected part's specs and configurations match with the specs provided in the datasheet and Reference Manual of the i.MX8MP, it will be compatible.

Please refer to the datasheet and Reference Manual of i.MX8MP.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi @riteshmpatel,

 Following a thorough review of the reference manual and Data sheet, we have identified key considerations pertaining to the selection of alternate SDRAM. Kindly confirm if the following parameters are exhaustive, or if there are additional criteria that necessitate verification:

1. Voltage rating
2. Footprint / Pin outs compatibility
3. Bus width
4. Number of chip selects, number of Channels
5. Clock frequency

Your prompt confirmation on this matter would greatly assist our decision-making process.

Thanks,
Sakthivel
