  Integrated CAN interface support, along with standard peripherals such as SPI, I2C and UARTs as part of the device architecture.
• Low-Power Process 
  Built on 45 nm technology for a low-power implementation suitable for power-conscious embedded designs.
• Package and Mounting 
  425-TEPBGA (425-FBGA) surface-mount package, 19 × 19 mm footprint for compact board integration.
• Industrial Qualification and Temperature Range 
  Industrial-qualified device with operating temperature range from −40 °C to 105 °C.
• Standards-Oriented Security Engines 
  Hardware crypto units including PKHA, DESA, AESA, MDHA and an RNG to accelerate public-key, block-cipher and hash operations.
• RoHS Compliance 
  Device is RoHS compliant for environmental and manufacturing consistency.

Typical Applications

• Wireless LAN Access Points 
  Designed to handle control-plane processing and security offload in 802.11ac/802.11n access points.
• SOHO/SMB Routers 
  Single-core processing with integrated Ethernet and security enables routing, firewall and VPN functions for small business gateways.
• Ethernet Switch Controllers 
  Multiple gigabit Ethernet ports and deterministic processing make it suitable as a controller for managed switch applications.
• Network Attached Storage (NAS) 
  SATA interfaces and XOR engine support for RAID parity checking provide a foundation for storage controller designs.
• Industrial Control and Automation 
  Industrial qualification and extended temperature range support factory automation, machine control and monitoring systems.
