The i.MX 93W applications processor from NXP combines a dedicated AI NPU with secure tri-radio wireless connectivity in a single package. By eliminating the need for up to 60 discrete components, the SoC reduces board area, design complexity, and system-level costs.
Purpose-built to accelerate physical AI deployment, the i.MX 93W is supported by NXP’s software stack, eIQ AI enablement tools, and precertified reference designs that simplify RF integration. The device integrates a dual-core Arm Cortex-A55 processor and an Arm Ethos NPU capable of up to 1.8 eTOPS. Wireless connectivity is provided by the IW610 tri-radio, supporting Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth Low Energy, and IEEE 802.15.4 for Matter and Thread.
The i.MX 93W SoC integrates an EdgeLock Secure Enclave (Advanced Profile) to support device security and regulatory frameworks such as the European Cyber Resilience Act. The enclave provides a hardware root of trust for secure boot, updates, device attestation, and device access. With NXP’s EdgeLock 2GO key management service, devices can be provisioned during manufacturing or in the field.
The i.MX 93W is slated to begin sampling in the second half of 2026.
