P1010NXE5KHA

The P1010NXE5KHA is a single-core PowerPC e500v2 microprocessor in NXP’s QorIQ P1 family, delivering 1.0 GHz performance in a highly integrated communications processor. It targets cost-sensitive networking, storage and industrial applications with a balance of performance, low-power implementation and on-chip security.

Built on 45 nm technology, the device combines a Power Architecture core, integrated memory controllers and a broad set of I/O to simplify system design for wireless LAN access points, SOHO/SMB routers, Ethernet switch controllers, NAS, video surveillance and factory automation / industrial control.

Key Features

• Core & Architecture PowerPC e500v2 core running at 1 GHz with 32‑bit single‑core operation and on-chip caches to support deterministic embedded processing.
• Memory Integrated DDR3 / DDR3L memory controller (16/32-bit memory interface noted in family documentation) and on-die cache (32 KB I-cache, 32 KB D-cache and 256 KB front-side cache reported for the family).
• Storage & Peripherals Dual SATA 3 Gbps channels for storage connectivity and one USB 2.0 with PHY for peripheral expansion.
• Ethernet & I/O Three 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet MACs for multi-port networking, plus CAN and a broad peripheral set documented in the QorIQ P1 family.
• Security Engine (SEC 4.4) Integrated security coprocessor supporting secure boot, cryptography, a hardware RNG and a secure fusebox. The SEC supports single‑pass cryptographic processing and includes crypto accelerators (PKHA, AESA, DESA, MDHA) and an XOR engine useful for RAID parity operations.
• Power & Implementation Designed on 45 nm technology for low-power implementation and targeted at value‑performance applications where power efficiency and integration are important.
• Package & Environmental 425‑TEPBGA I (19 × 19 mm) surface‑mount package, industrial qualification and operating temperature range of −40 °C to 105 °C. RoHS compliant.

Typical Applications

• Wireless LAN Access Points — Single‑core processing and on‑chip security accelerate secure wireless networking and management functions.
• SOHO/SMB Routers — Multiple Gigabit Ethernet MACs and integrated memory/controller support routing, NAT and service offload in compact designs.
• Network Attached Storage (NAS) — Dual SATA 3 Gbps interfaces and XOR engine support RAID and storage controller functions.
• Video Surveillance — Network connectivity and secure boot features enable reliable, authenticated system operation for edge video appliances.
• Factory Automation & Industrial Control — Industrial temperature rating and integrated communications interfaces suit embedded control and industrial networking nodes.

Unique Advantages

• Highly integrated connectivity: Multiple GigE ports, dual SATA and USB 2.0 with PHY reduce external components and simplify board design.
• Security‑focused architecture: SEC 4.4, secure boot, hardware RNG and cryptographic accelerators provide a trusted platform for secure communications and storage.
• Low‑power design: 45 nm implementation and single‑core topology deliver value‑performance with reduced power consumption for cost‑sensitive designs.
• Industrial‑grade operation: −40 °C to 105 °C operating range and industrial qualification support deployment in harsh environments.
• Compact package: 425‑TEPBGA (19 × 19 mm) surface‑mount package enables dense system integration in space‑constrained designs.
• Accelerated cryptographic processing: Single‑pass security processing and dedicated crypto units offload CPU and improve throughput for secure protocols.
