Freescale Unveils QorIQ Processor

Freescale Semiconductor introduced the QorIQ P1022 dual-core processor with advanced power management capabilities to support energy-efficient designs for embedded applications.

The company stated that the low-power, high-performance P1022 processor helps embedded systems designers satisfy green-energy mandates while achieving low overall system cost.

Based on 45-nm process technology, the P1022 processor is the sixth announced member of Freescale's QorIQ multicore product line. The device offers energy efficiency and a broad range of performance and integration capabilities. It is for applications where performance and energy efficiency are essential, including printing and imaging products, video surveillance technology, storage equipment, and industrial automation and control applications.

"Increased governmental and regulatory focus on energy efficiency for all classes of embedded products presents new challenges for embedded systems designers and developers," said Brett Butler, vice president and general manager of Freescale's Networking Processor Division. "Freescale has designed the QorIQ P1022 processor with advanced power and energy management capabilities to help multicore processing applications meet increasing energy-efficiency standards while enabling low system cost."

The device features a dual gigahertz core system for concurrent applications processing, delivering networked services, media processing and user-interface capabilities. Built on two Power Architecture cores ranging from 600 MHz to 1 GHz, the P1022 features high-speed triple PCI Express interconnects, hardware acceleration, 256 KB L2 cache and DDR2/3 memory options. The device also integrates Serial ATA interconnect technology and SD/MMC controllers for easy connectivity to integrated storage devices. Freescale additionally offers a single-core processor called the QorIQ P1013 with the same set of system peripherals, interconnect technology and advanced power and energy management features.
