Ideal for networking infrastructure,
telecom, industrial control, storage, control
plane, aerospace/defense and test and
measurement applications, Freescale
QorIQ communications platforms are the
next-generation evolution of our leading
PowerQUICC communications processors.
Based on high-performance e500mc and
e5500 cores built on Power Architecture
®
The new QorIQ P2040/P2041 and P3041
processors expand the reach of the
Freescale P4 platform into lower power
applications. Manufactured in 45 nm silicon-
on-insulator process technology, these
processors offer optimal integration and new
intellectual property that delivers improved
functionality for end products. The P2040/
P2041 and P3041 processors integrate four
e500mc cores based on Power Architecture
technology running up to 1.5 GHz within 12
watts, and deliver about 2.5 DMIPS/MHz. Key
features include a three-level cache hierarchy
for optimized latencies, a hardware hypervisor
for robust support of multiple operating
systems within the device, a trusted boot
architecture to ensure code is not tampered
with or reverse engineered and efficient data
path handling in the form of the Data Path
Acceleration Architecture (DPAA).
The P5 family of processors offers our
highest single-threaded performance for
next-generation embedded control plane
applications. With frequencies scaling to
2.4 GHz, the P5040 delivers an impressive
28,800 DMIPs in 25 watts typical power.
The 64-bit e5500 core enables customers to
address up to 64 GB of flat memory space,
eliminating the 4 GB memory limitation in
32-bit architecture, and provides customers
with 64-bit capabilities that are important in
computational intensive applications such
as image processing, security and statistical
computing. The P5 devices are capable of pin
compatibility with each other and also with the
P4 and P3 devices. This enables seamless
roadmap scaling from mid-range quad cores
to high-end octals to high-end duals.
Manufactured in 45 nm process technology,
the P5040, P5021, P5020 and P5010 devices
integrate a RAID 5/6 engine to accelerate
parity calculations for storage applications,
making it ideal for enterprise storage area
networks (SAN) and enterprise network
attached storage (NAS) solutions.
technology, QorIQ platforms enable a new era
of networking innovation that meets reliability,
security and quality-of-service needs for the
most demanding networking and industrial
applications.
We have expanded the performance range
of the QorIQ communications processor
product lines with the introduction of the
quad-core QorIQ P2040/P2041 and P3
platforms, and the 64-bit QorIQ P5 platform.
These processors deliver unprecedented
performance power for a wide variety of
applications.

Application Brief
The P5020, P3041, P2040 and P2041 all
support Serial RapidIO (V1.3 + 2.1) for higher
bandwidth and a message manager to support
Type 9 (data streaming) and improved Type
11 (messaging) transactions. The P5 and P3
families and the P204x support integrated
serial advanced technology attachment (SATA)
2.0, PCI-E Gen 2 controllers, 10 Gigabit
Ethernet, 1 Gigabit Ethernet with support
for 1.0 and 2.5 Gb/s SGMII and two USB
2.0 with integrated PHYs to provide a highly
integrated, high-performance processor ideal
for networking, industrial and data center
applications.
The QorIQ P2041 and P2040 processors are
similar to the P3041 but have a lower cost,
power, performance and functionality. These
devices are pin compatible.
The DPAA is common across this product
line, as well as some members of the P1
family (such as the P1023 and P1027). As a
result, products in all five levels of the QorIQ
family are software compatible, enabling easy
migration across a range of applications,
scaling from consumer pizza boxes to core
routers.

Application Brief
Storage
The rapid expansion of high-performance
information processing and transmission
among millions of applications has fueled
the growth of the storage market. As well as
supporting a brisk growth rate, the storage
market is continually diversifying to serve
emerging markets. Market drivers include:
• Rapidly increasing volumes of business
data that need secure storage, including
email, web content, video and other
e-business material
• Disaster recovery from power outages,
fires and severe natural calamities
• Government regulations, such as
notification and retention policies
• Explosive growth in sophisticated
home information, communication and
entertainment systems
• Increased downloads of personal and
premium content within the home network
Freescale supplies embedded processor
solutions to address the integrated
performance needs in three storage market
areas: SAN, NAS and digital media server.
These solutions range from high-performance
host processors to cost-optimized SoC
architectures with integrated redundant array
of independent drives (RAID), engines and
SATA interfaces.
Servicing enterprise and small/medium
business markets, SAN systems require
high-performance processors with high I/O
bandwidth and increased PCIe performance.
The host processor controls data movement
from the network to RAID ASICs, TCP/
IP or ISCSI protocol offload and provides
virtualization support and management
control. The P5 family of processors offer a
RAID 5/6 accelerator for use in SAN and NAS.
The RAID 5/6 accelerator performs the parity
calculation using a configurable Galois field
polynomial and supports a data integrity field,
making it ideal for use in high-performance,
high-reliability storage applications.
