The ARM® Cortex™-A9 i.MX 6 processors can be populated with one, two or four cores. This results a scalable processor in regards to computing power. Due to the phyFLEX product family features, the processor can be used effectively. The multi-core variants offer scalability by slightly modifying the software architecture.
