Freescale QorIQ™ communications platforms

are the next-generation evolution of our

processors. Built using high-performance

QorIQ platforms enable a new era of

networking innovation where the reliability,

security and quality of service for every

connection matters.

QorIQ P2020 and P2010

Communications Processors

The QorIQ P2 platform series, which includes

the P2020 (dual-core processor) and P2010

(single-core processor) communications

processors, delivers high single-threaded

performance per watt for a wide variety of

applications in the networking, telecom,

military and industrial markets. The series

delivers dual- and single-core frequencies

up to 1.2 GHz on a 45 nm technology

low-power platform.

The QorIQ P2020 and P2010 dual- and single-

core products are pin-compatible with the

QorIQ P1 platform products, offering four

interchangeable cost-effective solutions.

Scaling from a single-core processor at 533

MHz (P1011) to a dual-core processor at

1.2 GHz (P2020), the two QorIQ platforms

together deliver an impressive 4.5x aggregate

frequency range within the same pinout.

The devices in these two series are

software-compatible, sharing the e500

Power Architecture core and peripherals,

as well as being fully software compatible

with the existing PowerQUICC processors.

This enables customers to create a

product with multiple performance points

from a single board design. The P2020

and P1020 dual-core processors support

symmetric and asymmetric multi-processing,

enabling customers to scale performance

through either thread-level or application-

level parallelism.

The P2020 and P2010 communications

processors both have an advanced set

of features for ease of use. The optional

integrated security engine supports the

cryptographic algorithms commonly used

in IPsec, SSL, 3GPP and other networking

and wireless security protocols. The 64-bit

memory controller offers future-proofing

against memory technology migration with

support for both DDR2 and DDR3. It also

supports error correction codes, a baseline

requirement for any high-reliability system.

Other memory types such as flash are

supported through the 16-bit local bus,

USB, SD/MMC and SPI.

The P2010 and P2020 processors integrate

a rich set of interfaces, including SerDes,

technology and USB. The three 10/100/1000

Ethernet ports support advanced packet

parsing, flow control and quality of

time stamping.
