Microchip SAMA5D2 Processors
A Cortex-A5 platform for compact Linux equipment and embedded interfaces. Compare discrete processors and memory-integrated options around your display, communications and board constraints.
Discuss your application →Start with a short description. We can help select the exact device and integration path.
Compare selected options.
| Device option | Processing / interfaces | Selection focus |
|---|---|---|
| SAMA5D21 / D22 / D23Family PN: MPR-03109-00 | Cortex-A5 up to 500 MHz; 16-bit DDR interface | Compact configurations; CAN and security features vary |
| SAMA5D27 / D28Family PN: MPR-03109-00 | Cortex-A5 up to 500 MHz; 16/32-bit DDR; 2 CAN controllers | More memory-interface flexibility and connectivity |
| SAMA5D29Family PN: MPR-03109-00 | Cortex-A5 up to 500 MHz; 2 CAN FD controllers | Automotive-qualified device option; confirm ordering grade |
| SAMA5D27 SiP optionsFamily PN: MPR-03109-00 | Processor with integrated DDR2 or LPDDR2 memory | Reduce external-memory layout work; choose memory density |
The family includes an LCD controller, camera interface and Ethernet MAC. Select the device and package for the necessary pins, security features and memory interface. A SiP reduces some board complexity but still requires a complete power, storage and interface design.
The FPD.DEV PN identifies this family for inquiry and review. Manufacturer part numbers in the table identify options; final ordering suffixes, availability and scope are confirmed with your quotation.
Where it can fit.
Connected equipment
Integrate networking, peripheral I/O and Linux services around a defined power budget.
Custom carrier or board design
Compare a discrete processor, SiP and module before committing to PCB complexity.
Define the integration before the part.
Family features are not identical across devices. Automotive qualification on a selected part does not establish aerospace approval. Confirm lifecycle, memory configuration and software support during selection.
Microchip is a U.S.-headquartered supplier. Exact manufacturing origin and traceability are ordering-code and lot dependent.
We prefer U.S. and other suitable non-China sourcing when quality, performance and availability fit the application. Tell us if origin or traceability is a firm requirement.
Tell us what the system needs to do.
Share the application, interfaces, environment and timing you know. We will work through the remaining choices with you.
