Image of NXP's i.MX RT600 Crossover MCU NXP's i.MX RT600 is a crossover MCU that is optimized for 32-bit immersive audio playback and voice user interface applications, combining a high-performance Cadence^® Tensilica^® HiFi 4 audio DSP core with a next-generation Cortex®-M33 core. The i.MX RT600 family is part of NXP’s EdgeVerse™ edge computing platform. The RT600 family of crossover MCUs is designed to unlock the potential of voice-assisted end nodes with a secure, power-optimized embedded processor.

The i.MX RT600 family provides up to 4.5 MB of on-chip SRAM and several high-bandwidth interfaces to access off-chip Flash, including an Octal/Quad SPI interface with an on-the-fly decryption engine. In addition, the family offers a rich set of peripherals, advanced security capabilities, and extremely low power consumption with reduced power modes and fast wake-up times.
