OVERVIEW

The QorIQ LS10x8A family of multicore communications

with the advanced, high-performance datapath and network

peripheral interfaces required for wireless access points,

networking infrastructure and intelligent edge access,

including virtual customer premise equipment (vCPE), and

high-performance industrial applications.

The QorIQ LS10x8A processors include NXP’s second-

generation datapath acceleration architecture (DPAA2).

DPAA2 provides the infrastructure required to support

simplified and secure networking interface and accelerator

sharing by multiple general-purpose CPU cores, while also

providing a range of powerful acceleration engines to

offload software running on the CPUs.

supported by a powerful software toolkit that provides a higher

level of hardware abstraction and makes software development

quick and simple. This combination balances ease-of-use with

is familiar to any software programmer. Customers can fully

exploit the underlying hardware and easily adapt to network

changes for real-time ‘soft’ control over the network.

SOFTWARE TOOLKIT

NXP has significant and increasing global investment in software

for the embedded marketplace. The NXP software development

kit (SDK) delivers foundational technologies (user space, fast

path, virtualization) that are continuously ‘upstreamed’ to

support the networking portfolio. With 13+ years experience

of commercial ARM software tooling, operating system

development and delivery, NXP continues to be a strong
