HPIXP2350AE

The HPIXP2350AE WESTPORT NETWORK PROCESSOR is a microprocessor IC from Intel's IXP2350 series, built around an Xscale core running at 1.2 GHz. Designed for embedded and industrial applications, it integrates memory controllers, networking interfaces and security features to support network-centric embedded systems.

With a single 32-bit core, Microengine co-processors, DDR/SDRAM memory controller support and two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, this device targets embedded networking and industrial use cases that require sustained processing, interface integration and deployment in industrial temperature environments.

Key Features

• Core and Performance — Xscale core operating at 1.2 GHz, 32-bit single-core architecture for general-purpose embedded processing.
• Co-processors — Includes Microengine DSP co-processors to offload and accelerate specialized processing tasks.
• Memory Support — Built-in controllers for DDR and SDRAM provide flexible memory interfacing options for embedded designs.
• Networking Interfaces — Two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (Gigabit Ethernet (2)) enable high-speed network connectivity for communication and data transfer.
• Security — On-chip 3DES support for hardware-accelerated encryption relevant to secure communications.
• Package and Mounting — 1752-FCBGA package (1752-FCBGA (42.5×42.5)) in a surface-mount form factor suitable for compact board layouts.
• Industrial Grade — Rated as Industrial with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 105°C for deployment in industrial environments.
• GPIO and I/O — Additional GPIO interfaces for control, signaling and peripheral integration.

Typical Applications

• Industrial Networking Equipment — Use the integrated Gigabit Ethernet interfaces and industrial temperature rating for routers, switches or networked control modules in industrial settings.
• Embedded Network Appliances — Leverage the Xscale core, Microengine co-processors and 3DES security to build compact, secure network appliances and packet-processing devices.
• Communication Gateways — Deploy as a processing element in gateways that require DDR/SDRAM memory support and GPIO for peripheral interfacing.

Unique Advantages

• Integrated Networking Interfaces: Two Gigabit Ethernet ports provide native high-speed connectivity without external controllers.
