The NXP i.MX 937 applications processor is a modern, cost-efficient edge computing solution designed to help engineers build scalable, secure products for automotive, industrial and IoT markets. Optimised for performance without excessive power draw, it bridges the gap between entry-level chips and high-end processors, giving designers the flexibility to grow product portfolios with minimal redesign effort.
At its core, the i.MX 937 integrates a quad-core Arm Cortex-A55 complex running up to 1,4 GHz, alongside a dedicated NXP eIQ Neutron neural processing unit (NPU) delivering around 2 eTOPS of machine-learning acceleration. This powerful combination enables responsive edge AI workloads such as vision processing and intelligent HMI on a Linux-capable platform. A dedicated Arm Cortex-M7 real-time core and Cortex-M33 system management core further enhance real-time performance and power efficiency.
The multimedia subsystem is rich for its class, featuring an Arm Mali G310 3D GPU and a video processing unit capable of 1080p60 encoding and decoding. High-speed memory support includes LPDDR5 or LPDDR4x with inline ECC and encryption, ensuring robust performance and data integrity. Camera and display interfaces support modern HMI and vision applications with minimal external components.
One of the i.MX 937’s strongest advantages is its drop-in compatibility with the i.MX 95 and i.MX 952 families, enabling engineers to scale designs up or down without costly PCB redesigns or multiple software streams. Shared board-support packages, security architectures and development ecosystems further simplify product scaling.
In real-world applications, the i.MX 937 delivers the compute and graphics performance needed for advanced automotive displays, industrial robotics, and secure smart-home gateways.
