Nuvoton Announced the MA35D16AJ87C Microprocessors

Hsinchu, Taiwan — Nuvoton Technology announced the MA35D16AJ87C, a new member of the MA35 series microprocessors. Featuring an industry-leading 15 x 15 mm BGA312 package with 512 MB of DDR SDRAM stacked inside, the MA35D16AJ87C streamlines PCB design, reduces product footprint, and lowers EMI, making it an excellent fit for space-constrained industrial applications.

Key Highlights

Dual 64-bit Arm® Cortex®-A35 cores plus a Cortex®-M4 real-time core
Integrated, independent TSI (Trusted Secure Island) security hardware
512 MB DDR SDRAM stacked inside a 15 x 15 mm BGA312 package
Supports Linux and RTOS, along with Qt, emWin, and LVGL graphics libraries
Industrial temperature range: -40°C to +105°C
Ideal for factory automation, industrial IoT, new energy, smart buildings, and smart cities

The MA35D16AJ87C is built on dual Arm Cortex-A35 cores (Armv8-A architecture, up to 800 MHz) paired with a Cortex-M4 real-time core. It supports 1080p display output with graphics acceleration and integrates a comprehensive set of peripherals, including 17 sets of UARTs, 4 sets of CAN-FD interfaces, 2 sets of Gigabit Ethernet ports, 2 sets of SDIO 3.0 interfaces, and 2 sets of USB 2.0 ports, among others, to meet diverse industrial application needs.

To address escalating IoT security challenges, the MA35D16AJ87C incorporates Nuvoton’s independently designed TSI (Trusted Secure Island) hardware security module. It supports Arm® TrustZone® technology, Secure Boot, and Tamper Detection, and integrates a complete hardware cryptographic engine suite (AES, SHA, ECC, RSA, SM2/3/4), a true random number generator (TRNG), and a key store. These capabilities help customers meet international cybersecurity requirements such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and IEC 62443.

The MA35D16AJ87C is supported by Nuvoton’s Linux and RTOS platforms and is compatible with leading graphics libraries including Qt, emWin, and LVGL, helping customers shorten development cycles and reduce overall development costs. The Nuvoton MA35 Series is designed for industrial-grade applications and is backed by a 10-year product supply commitment.
