HPIXP2350ADT

The HPIXP2350ADT is an Intel IXP2350 network microprocessor IC based on an XScale core running at 1.2 GHz. Designed for embedded applications, it combines a 32‑bit XScale core with dedicated microengine co‑processors and integrated memory controllers to address industrial networking and communications tasks.

Its feature set—dual Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, DDR/SDRAM controllers, hardware 3DES security support, and an industrial temperature grade—targets embedded and industrial network appliance applications that require sustained throughput and hardware offload capabilities.

Key Features

• Core  Single 32‑bit XScale core operating at 1.2 GHz, providing deterministic processing for embedded workloads.
• Co‑processors  Integrated microengine DSP co‑processors for offloading specialized packet processing or data‑plane tasks from the main core.
• Memory  Onboard controllers for DDR and SDRAM to support system memory requirements for networking and buffering.
• Network Interfaces  Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports (2) plus general‑purpose I/O (GPIO) for connectivity and control in communications designs.
• Security  Hardware 3DES support for accelerated encryption/decryption operations.
• Package & Mounting  1752‑FCBGA package (42.5 × 42.5 mm) in a surface‑mount form factor suitable for compact board designs.
• Operating Range & Grade  Industrial grade device specified for operation from 0 °C to 105 °C.
• RoHS Compliance  RoHS compliant for environmentally regulated applications.
• Graphics  No graphics acceleration—focus is on network processing and embedded compute.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Networking Equipment  Dual Gigabit Ethernet and industrial temperature rating make it suitable for switches, media gateways, and protocol converters in factory or plant environments.
• Edge and Access Routers  XScale core plus microengines and hardware 3DES enable packet handling and encrypted traffic processing at the network edge.
• Network Appliances  Ideal for appliances requiring integrated DDR/SDRAM support and multiple Ethernet ports for traffic aggregation and packet inspection.

Unique Advantages

• Balanced processing and offload: The 1.2 GHz XScale core combined with microengine co‑processors lets designs partition control‑plane and data‑plane workloads efficiently.
• Integrated memory controllers: DDR and SDRAM support simplifies system memory design and buffering for networking applications.
• Dual Gigabit Ethernet: Two gigabit interfaces provide native high‑speed connectivity for networked embedded systems.
• Hardware security support: On‑chip 3DES accelerates encryption tasks without relying solely on the main CPU.
• Industrial robustness: Specified 0 °C to 105 °C operating range and industrial grade classification for deployment in challenging environments.
• Compact board-level integration: 1752‑FCBGA (42.5 × 42.5 mm) surface‑mount package supports dense PCB layouts.
